Abstract
Tseng and Wu have performed a creditable task in editing this book that involved twenty-nine delegates from the Conference on Chinese Culture and Mental Health (Hawaii, 1982). Their purpose was to have "insiders" produce a definitive work on the Chinese culture and its interaction with the mental component of health. The Chinese are described in the preface as "having a history of at least 5000 years of civilization," with China comprising "... one quarter of the world's people," but having people of the Chinese culture who live in various geographical areas, including "... Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, Canada, and the United States."
