About this title

Synopsis

Identity development is one of the principal themes of the human life cycle and is influenced by a number of characteristics, including race and ethnicity. Racial and Ethnic Identity brings together original essays by nationally recognized researchers, scholars, educators and clinicians to elucidate the psychological processes leading to the development of racial and ethnic identity and to examine how this identity influences creative expression.

Review

"It provides an excellent view of some major concerns of African and Latin Americans, e.g., racial definitions and their history; the impact of legal segregation and affirmitave action on racial identity; stereotyping and realism in politics, religion, and the arts."
