?Given that East Asian social psychologists are frequently aware of
the political underpinnings and implications of their work, it is
not exaggerated to say that Progress in Asian Social Psychology
represents not only a scientific but also a politically significant
effort.?-International Psychology Reporter
?Very little work has appeared on Asian social psychology, and this
important volume fills that significant void....this volume's
greatest strength is its focus on current empirical social
psychological work with Korean, Chinese, and Japanese populations.
This volume will be of interest to advanced scholars of
cross-cultural social psychology and multicultural psychology and
in the applied clinical/counseling fields. References at the end of
each chapter. Recommended. Graduate and research collections
only.?-Choice
