Series Statement: Cross-cultural research in health, illness and well-being

Content: This volume is the first comprehensive and interdisciplinary text to holistically improve understanding of the health of South Asians residing in the United States by considering biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors of health. The vast literatures of diverse fields - psychology, medicine, public health, social work, and health policy - are integrated by leading scholars, scientists, and practitioners in these areas to explore the impact of South Asian cultural factors on health, health risk, and illness. Chapters incorporate available theoretical and empirical information on the status of chronic health conditions in South Asians in the United States, with consideration of future directions to improve understanding of the health of this group. Cultural and ethnic insights imperative for clinical/community/medical practitioners to provide effective and culturally-appropriate care and treatment from an interdisciplinary lens are provided

Content: This book offers researchers and students an important resource that explores the rich diversity of personality as both a virtue and a vice. The editors argue that a more balanced persective of personality may help prevent overly biased or unbalance clinical or educational formations and profiles and, in contrast, may help foster a genuine empathetic connection with clients and students. Leading researchers focus on some of the most notable personality variables that have garnered the attention of researchers and scholars over the past decades, including self-esteem, optimism, intelligence, personal control, rumination, perfectionism, and neuroticism. The editors appeal for researchers and scholars to examine their assumptions about personality, which are rooted in philosophical notions of good and bad, and argue that a balanced view is essential for true understanding of human nature.

Content: "We put together a book that would offer readers multiple perspectives, insights, and directions in understanding social problem solving as an important theory that has driven wide-ranging scientific research and as an important means of training to empower and elevate the lives of individuals. We believe that social problem solving can help individuals free themselves from the problems they face or the distress that these problems cause. We recognize that some problems may be difficult or impossible to solve, but we believe that considerable value remains in understanding and promoting effective social problem solving to foster the novel insights and methods in which problems that seem insurmountable ultimately may be conquered in incremental steps, across time and across individuals. Moreover, we believe that problems can be solved in different ways. When problematic situations or circumstances are manageable or controllable, a good problem solver tries to find ways to change them for the better. However, when such situations or circumstances are unchangeable or uncontrollable, one can still use problem solving to find ways to accept and tolerate with less distress that which cannot be changed or controlled"--Preface.

Content: "Life is complex. Accordingly, this volume represents an attempt to share with interested readers a way not only to recognize complexity in our lives but also to embrace it. Thus, the editor's overarching goal for this volume is to challenge readers to think more richly and complexly about self-criticism and self-enhancement as powerful frameworks for understanding and changing human behavior, including one's own. The present volume consists of three main parts. Part I focuses on popular notions of self-enhancement as good and self-criticism as bad. Complementing the first part, Part II focuses on the less popular but equally compelling notions of self-criticism as good and self-enhancement as bad. To integrate the rich and diverse views represented in the previous two parts, Part III focuses on an appreciation of self-criticism and self-enhancement as both good and bad. Part IV addresses some of the clinical implications of self-criticism and self-enhancement. The volume concludes with a look to the future. Indeed, the works presented in this volume are a testimony to the fact that greater appreciation for these constructs can be garnered to yield a better understanding of them in both future research and practice"--Book.

Content: Prevailing beliefs and attitudes encourage researchers and lay people to think almost exclusively in terms of the costs of pessimism and the benefits of optimism. This volume provides a forum for those involved with the study of optimism and pessimism to have an opportunity to examine these beliefs. The result is a critical survey that enables readers to recognize the importance of "balance" in understanding the relative powers of both optimism and pessimism. With a focus on the practical implications for therapy, contributors provide up-to-date reviews of the empirical foundations of these constructs. Particularly valuable is an examination of cultural, biological, and psychological factors related to optimism and pessimism. Through the diversity of views presented, the dynamic interplay between optimism and pessimism that reflects the fundamental tension and harmony found in life is illustrated.
