Reviews

"The authors take on the very academic framework and practices of psychology themselves, arguing that it is time to begin chipping away at the ‘propped-up’ racial hierarchies that secure the place of select groups within these hierarchies. (…) This is a useful book for anybody wanting to read this important collection who does not have access to Women & Therapy; it is a must for the library of any counsellor, psychotherapist and clinical psychologist training centre." - James Costello, Department of Psychology, University of the West of England, Bristol
