With a focus on how to improve the effectiveness and cultural
competence of clinical services and research, this authoritative
volume synthesizes current knowledge on both the physical and
psychological health of African Americans today. In chapters that
follow a consistent format for easy reference, leading scholars
from a broad range of disciplines review risk and protective
factors for specific health conditions and identify what works,
what doesn't work, and what might work (i.e., practices requiring
further research) in clinical practice with African Americans.
Historical, sociocultural, and economic factors that affect the
quality and utilization of health care services in African American
communities are examined in depth. Evidence-based ways to draw on
individual, family, and community strengths in prevention and
treatment are highlighted throughout. Winner--American Journal of
Nursing Book of the Year Award
