recognition of other ethnicities: it entails the balancing of group and individual factors to apply relevant information in diagnostic and therapeutic settings. Particularly in need of culturally appropriate services are Asians and Asian Americans, populations that are diverse, growing, and underserved by Asian practitioners. Neuropsychology with Asians and Asian Americans takes cultural neuroscience to new levels in its variety and usefulness. Focusing on the largest groups of Far East and Southeast Asian descent, this leading-edge reference examines the influence of culture on psychological processes and identifies sociocultural factors as they influence neurological aspects of client presentation."--Provided by publisher. 000695468 650_0 $$aNeuropsychology$$zAsia. 000695468 650_0 $$aNeuropsychology$$zUnited States. 000695468 650_0 $$aAsian Americans$$xPsychology. 000695468 7001_ $$aDavis, J.
