Book Description

"This is not another how-to book, although it is practical and applied. Instead, it is a book that addresses the tough situations and quandries facing therapists working with clients who differ from them in culture, ethnicity, lifestyle, or beliefs." --Contemporary Psychology

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for anyone working with poor families today!, March 29, 2000
By 
This review is from: Bread & Spirit: Therapy with the New Poor: Diversity of Race, Culture, and Values (A Norton Professional Book) (Paperback)
Aponte does a great job of integrating theory with the "real world" of poverty. Students have found this book to be very helpful in understanding the struggles of multi-problem, chaotic families who present for treatment. Aponte uses a strength based approach to build on what they have vs. what they do not.

This review is from: Bread & Spirit: Therapy with the New Poor: Diversity of Race, Culture, and Values (A Norton Professional Book) (Paperback)
How unfortunate that Harry Aponte has written only 1 book. His wisdom is something therapists covet. This book is a good sampling of this compassionate scholar.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bread and Spirit, January 10, 2012
This review is from: Bread & Spirit: Therapy with the New Poor: Diversity of Race, Culture, and Values (A Norton Professional Book) (Paperback)
in 1994 Harry Aponte was on the cutting edge of including spiritual resources in family therapy. This landmark work kills a number of birds with one stone: It demonstrates the value of including spirituality in therapy, specific needs of the poor, the way Structural Family Therapy works, one way therapists can be trained, and a challenge for growth and development of all therapists.
