Nice

The book is a deep revelation of the foundations of Psychology and Black psychology (in specific). It arrived in time and in good condition.

Exceptional text

This book is not perfect but still is one of the more salient text to tackle the topic of black psychology.

An excellent introduction to the thinkers and thought that began the Black Psychology Movement

This book provides an excellent introduction to the thinkers and thought that began the Black Psychology Movement in the US. The essays cover a broad range of approaches to and issues of interest to a Black Psychology. They have in common a proactive commitment to moving toward Black self definition and away from the reactive Black psychology of the previous era (disputing aspersions cast by mainstream psychology) and even further away from traditional psychology's penchant for describing Blackness and the Black experience in negative terms. As one might expect during the initiating phase of the sub discipline, the theoretical offerings vary in their practical utility and theoretical fitness. Readers will observe that the ideas of greater merit have survived that initial period of exploration but that all of the essays in this volume are important documentation of the struggle among Black intellectuals set the parameters for an authentic Psychology of the Black Experience. I use this text in my courses regularly. *The text itself does not provide much of a meta-narrative therefore naive users may need to seek information on the broader history of Black psychology in order to place these essays in context.
