This is intended to be a resource for those interested in the area of multiculturalism. Important publications investigating and/or explicating these terms are also discussed and referenced. Moreover, authors define these terms with a point of view; many terms are defined in a manner that connects them with perspectives commonly expressed by scholars and practitioners in the field. Thus, connotations are included as well as denotations of the terms.

Dr Patricia Arredondo demonstrates her contextual, psychohistorical approach to therapy with clients whose heritage is from one of the many Spanish speaking countries. Her approach takes into consideration not just the client as an individual, but the client in context. This means attending to the client's culture, family traditions, religious beliefs, current situation, and historical context. In this session, Dr Arredondo helps a 39-year-old Latina woman work out how to fit the changes in her life into the context of her family's expectations of her as well as her own life goals.

In Becoming Culturally Oriented: Practical Advice for Psychologists and Educators, Nadya A. Fouad and Patricia Arredondo provide a comprehensive framework for helping psychologists to increase and improve culturally responsive practice, research, and education. Research shows that racial and ethnic minorities have less access to mental health services than do Whites and are more likely to receive poor quality services. Compounding these problems is the fact that ethnic minority psychologists are poorly represented among psychologists as a whole, relative to their numbers in the general population. To address these concerns, APA has developed the Guidelines on Multicultural Education, Training, Research, and Organizational Change for Psychologists as a blueprint for psychologists pursuing their work in increasingly diverse communities. The Guidelines are written in aspirational language, but to date, an associated program for applying the guidelines has been missing.

Review\nWomen and the Challenge of STEM Professions: Thriving in a Chilly Climate is a must have for women, particularly women of color, who are in –or considering a career in―the sciences. Arredondo, Miville, Capodilupo and Vera have put together a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the landscape for women in STEM careers. The best part, though, is that they also talk about best practices for women on how to thrive in those environments, including chapters on how to find support, how to self-advocate, how to resist structural barriers. But, because they take a structural approach, they also end with recommendations for leaders in the academy to retain women in STEM departments. I most highly recommend it. 
Nadya A. Fouad, Ph.D, ABPPMary and Ted Kellner Endowed Chair of Educational PsychologyUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Distinguished Professor\nThis book is not just about women or for women!!! It’s about all of us and for all of us! Science is advanced to the benefit of everyone as a result of diverse perspectives and approaches to discovery that emanate though the lens of women of diverse ethnic and racial cultural traditions. This is more than about social justice - it is a required attribute in the continuous quest for TRUTH! 
Orlando L. Taylor, PhDDistinguished Senior Advisor to the PresidentExecutive Director & Co-PI, Center for the Advancement of STEM LeadershipFielding Graduate University\nMany women of color have been in the trenches for decades in the movement toward greater representation and inclusion in the sciences. They have managed uncharted terrains without guides (e.g., colleagues), maps (e.g., frameworks, guidelines), or even adequate gear (e.g., words, concepts, and constructs). Their persistence uncovered valuable insights into how to find and build spaces to thrive. This book centers the voices of scientists, whose experiences as women of color in science fields lends a unique understanding of the enterprise of knowledge production. Their stories provide warmth and protection in an otherwise chilly climate for future generations of scientists. Melanie Domenech-Rodríguez, PhDProfessor, Department of PsychologyUtah State University\nWomen and the Challenge of STEM Professions provides a thoughtful and refreshing view of the challenges for women leading in STEM. It offers compassionate insight into the difficulty and opportunity for women to remain in STEM and to be appreciated for their work as scientists. With historical perspective as well as real-world examples, the work is a fantastic reference for women who are aspiring, training for and enduring leadership in STEM disciplines, where women are not the dominant gender, and for men in STEM who are advocates and allies.
