Product Review
"An great addition to the human genetics library. This book should reach not only genetics professionals but all health care providers. [It] is the first global attempt by several experts from diverse backgrounds to address specific ethnic and cultural beliefs and their implications for genetic services. It is long overdue!" -- Alliance Alert
"The book succeeds in making the reader aware of the ethnic groups that [geneticists] might meet. If you see this book on your shelf, do pick it up. You will find the book fascinating." -- Journal of Medical Genetics
Product Review
"This is the only book I know of that discusses in depth the problems, solutions, and guidelines for cross-cultural and cross-ethnic genetic counseling in North America. Logical and effective in manner, this text is a substantial contribution to the field and will also be of interest to nurses, social workers, and other health workers involved in genetic counseling." -- James E. Bowman, M.D., University of Chicago
