The SAGE Encyclopedia of Political Behavior
The SAGE Encyclopedia of Political Behavior explores the intersection of psychology, political science, sociology, and human behavior. This encyclopedia integrates theories, research, and case studies from a variety of disciplines that inform this established area of study. Aimed at college and university students, this one-of-a-kind book covers voting patterns, interactions between groups, what makes different types of government systems appealing to different societies, and the impact of early childhood development on political beliefs, among others.

Any counselor or therapist, regardless of race, background, or motives, can engage in unintentional acts of racism.

Written with great sensitivity and clarity, this volume will benefit all helping professionals including counselors, psychologists, social workers, student personnel professionals, nurses, ministers, and marriage and family therapists. --
