Handbook of Asian American Psychology

In 1998, Zane and Lee published the Handbook of Asian American Psychology. It contained groundbreaking chapters from experts in the field of Asian American mental health. http://www.uk.sagepub.com/refbooksProdDesc.nav?prodId=Book3931

Nearly a decade later, several co-editors collaborated on the long-awaited second edition: http://www.sagepub.com/booksProdDesc.nav?contribId=533177&prodId=Book228036. This second edition contains information regarding special populations (e.g., older adults and international students) as well as adjustment issues (e.g., racism, family violence, and psychopathology).

Do you have any favorite books that you reference on this matter?
