4.0 out of 5 stars
The best explanation of how every body landed here.,
By Joe Niemczura "nursing faculty" (Honolulu Hawaii) - See all my reviews
This review is from: People and Cultures of Hawaii: A Psychocultural Profile (Paperback)
Hawaii is the most multicultural state of the USA, and it was only recently that San Francisco surpassed Honolulu as the most "majority Minority" city in the USA (each has upwards of 70% non-caucasian nowadays).
At the school of nursing in Honolulu where I teach we emphasize cross cultural awareness and sensitivity. There are terrific books on cross-cultural care ( lipson & Dibble, as well as Pagana & Pagana, come to mind. students are required to buy one or the other of these). BUT, not all ethnic groups present in Hawaii are convered by the books, and there are several variations about semi-acculturated persons form various asian backgrounds who are here. This book, addresses these situations from a health care perspective. The only limitation is, it's getting old and shoudl be reprinted. |
