This is an outstanding monograph on the medical and psychological considerations clinicians must keep in mind when caring for a person who has immigrated to a land with different customs and lifestyles. The book offers insights that
clinicians usually are not exposed to in their training programs. The book also is a tremendous asset for clinicians who participate in medical missions to developing areas, sensitizing them to the cultures they may not have experience
with.

"The chapters are very well referenced, and despite the evident diversity of countries and health care systems presented here, readers can easily apply authors’ evidence-based suggestions and conclusions to local situations. University libraries supporting programs for health professionals, including not only future physicians and nurses but also social workers, would do well to acquire this book. Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through graduate students and practitioners."
