Cultural Diversity and Suicide

The literature on the relationship between culture and suicide has historically been widely scattered and often difficult to find. This well-organized book summarizes that widespread literature so that counselors can begin to include diversity issuesnow recognized as important variables to considerwhen conducting suicide assessments or interventions. Cultural Diversity and Suicide focuses on Americans of European, African, Asian, Hispanic, and Native American backgrounds, and the cultural/ethnic variables the book examines focus on gender, age, religion, and sexuality.
