First published in 1992. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor and
Francis, an informa company.
Designed to improve racial and cultural sensitivity on
predominantly white campuses through a structural learning
approach, this text deals with these issues on a realistic and
practical level. Using twenty-three hands-on activities, it
approaches multicultural relations in a very personal,
individualistic manner with the student as the target of training
and change. This book emphasizes personal awareness,
self-knowledge, and honest communication among majority and
minority students.
How does a person make sense of their life when things begin to go
bad? Editors George Howard and Edward Delgado-Romero posed this
question to several psychologists, counselors, and therapists, to
have them talk about a time in their lives when things began to go
bad. When Things Begin to Go Bad presents thirteen personal
narratives focused on hope-rather than despair and darkness-and
deals with issues including health problems, racism, homophobia,
disability, dysfunction, and death. The hope generated by these
stories provides a realistic and mature trust that there is
something to be learned when dealing with difficult issues. These
inspiring stories provide fresh insight into how people can make
sense of difficulties through the writing of personal narratives.
The stories included in this volume have an application for
psychological treatment and research, and represent a chance for
people to relate their stories to those of others.
