✦ Synopsis

B

etween 1975 and 1995, there was a gradual expansion of research and publications pertaining to multicultural counseling. In an effort to systematize and analyze this burgeoning literature, Joseph Ponterotto, J. Manuel Casas, Lisa Suzuki, and Charlene Alexander (1995) recruited a large team of the leading authorities on multiculturalism to produce the first edition of the Handbook of Multicultural Counseling, which is considered by many scholars to be a classic text in the field. This original edition reported that multiculturalism was a major force in counseling and that the counseling profession's knowledge of and appreciation for multicultural counseling would continue to grow in the future.

Since 1995, multicultural and diversity training has spread widely throughout industry and every level of the education system in the United States (Kiselica & Ramsey, 2001). In the mental health professions, a growing awareness that all counseling is, to some extent, multicultural contributed to the emergence and refinement of numerous models of cultural identity development, frameworks for multicultural counseling and training, and instruments to assess multicultural constructs (Kiselica & Ramsey, 2001). In response to these developments and an explosion of new publications on multicultural counseling, Ponterotto, Casas, Suzuki, and Alexander completed a second edition of the Handbook of Multicultural Counseling, which addresses the history, theories, research, and practice of multicultural counseling. The purpose of this article is to review the second edition of The Handbook.
