Joe Hatcher referred me to an interesting textbook called "Social
Psychology: Exploring Universals Across Cultures" by F. M. Moghaddam
(1998). The text integrates cultural issues well with the traditional
subject matter of social-psychology courses.
I wondered if there might be a similar kind of textbook for abnormal
psychology. I am not asking for a text that includes cultural issues
within a few isolated boxes in a traditional chapter. Instead, I
wondered if there might be an abnormal-psychology text that extensively
integrates cross-cultural examinations of mental illness with the
traditional subject matter of abnormal psychology.
