"An informative book ... Summing Up: Recommended."—D. Harper, University of Rochester, in CHOICE, January 2014"This book is a MUST for counselors, psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and other mental health practitioners. It contributes significantly to the literature on indigenous cultural knowledge systems, especially in terms of conceptualization, treatment preferences, and help-seeking and acceptance behaviors among people of Caribbean cultural upbringing."—Olaniyi Bojuwoye, PhD, department of educational psychology, University of the Western Cape, South Africa"Responding to the intermingling of Amerindian, African, European, and Indian cultures, Caribbean societies have produced a rich variety of indigenous healing traditions. For the first time, we now have a much-needed overview of such belief systems and practices, which continue to shape the health-related behavior of Caribbeans living either at home or in the diaspora."—Uwe P. Gielen, PhD, director, Institute for International and Cross-Cultural Psychology, St. Francis College"Wonderfully organized and thoughtfully constructed, this formative, comprehensive, engaging book will be a major resource for understanding the complexities of traditional healing practices in the Caribbean basin, especially those associated with mental health. With a wealth of interesting material and a clear writing style, anyone who delves deeply into these chapters will emerge as a more informed student and practitioner."—Joseph E. Trimble, PhD, Distinguished University Professor of Psychology, Western Washington University
