Know about the book -

Interprofessional Practice with Diverse Populations is written by Allan Barsky and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0313095752 (ISBN 10) and 9780313095757 (ISBN 13).

Concepts such as cultural competence, multicultural practice, and ethnosensitivity have taken root in the literature. At the same time, concepts such as cross-disciplinary, transdisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and interprofessional practice have been articulated. Although these two trends coexist in print, the literature in the various helping professions does not address whether and how the issues of client diversity and interprofessional practice can come together in productive and better informed ways. The present book promises to close this gap and offer health care professionals theoretically grounded examples of best practices. The range of diversity includes Native American, Taiwanese, Portuguese, African-American, Algerian, Irish, South Asian, and gay clients.
