Cross-Cultural Child Development for Social Workers

"Lena Robinson's text offers an introduction to cross-cultural perspectives on child development that both challenges the Eurocentric assumptions implicit in much traditional psychology, and relates theory and research to social work practice. Drawing on literature from Britain and North America, she looks at a range of key topics from attachment to identity and communication to socialization and shows how a conceptual framework that incorporates a cross-cultural, black and ecological perspective can help social workers understand the diverse upbringing and cultures of their clients." "With summary boxes to allow students to consolidate their learning, case examples and sections in each chapter on implications for social work practice, this will be essential reading for social workers at all stages of their careers who want to develop strength-based, anti-racist and culturally sensitive practice."--Jacket.
