| Summary |
"This practitioner guide and widely adopted text illuminates how racism, sexism, and other forms of oppression constrain the lives of diverse clients - and family therapy itself. Leading thinkers and therapists provide powerful tools for expanding the boundaries of the field and working toward truly inclusive clinical practice. The volume integrates theoretical exposition with case vignettes and evocative autobiographical narratives. It reveals the experiences, challenges, wisdom, and struggles of people whose voices are not often heard in the mainstream literature, including racial minority, intercultural, poor, immigrant, and gay and lesbian families."--BOOK JACKET |
