Anotace knihy

One way integrative approaches to health care improve on traditional medical models is by recognizing the impact of cultural factors on health. While this evolution benefits clients of all ethnicities, it is particularly relevant to treating individuals of Arab descent, who face a wide range of challenges and stressors in post-9/11 America. §Biopsychosocial Perspectives on Arab Americans brings together vital knowledge on culture and traditions, psychosocial development, and key aspects of health and disease to address a wide range of salient concerns. Its interdisciplinary scholarship mirrors the diversity of the population, exploring ethnic concepts in sociopolitical context before reviewing findings on major health issues, including diabetes, cancer, substance abuse, mental illness, and maternal/child health, as they affect the community. And by including strategies for disease prevention, health promotion, and environmental health, the book offers practitioners--and their clients--opportunities for proactive care. Featured in the coverage: §Arab Americans and the aging processAcculturation and ethnic identity across the lifespanArab refugees: trauma, resilience, and recoveryCancer: crossroads of ethnicity and environmentHealth and well-being: biopsychosocial prevention approachesArab American health disparities: a call for advocacy §Rich in cultural information and clinical insights, Biopsychosocial Perspectives on Arab Americans is an important reference that can enhance the practice of health psychologists, clinical psychologists, rehabilitation specialists, counseling psychologists, and social workers.§
