520    Long considered important for professionals working with 
       minority and under-represented populations, cross-cultural
       competency has become a requisite for all health care 
       providers. As society in the US increasingly diversifies, 
       there is a crucial need to prepare health care 
       professionals to effectively treat this changing 
       population. The Massachusetts General Hospital Textbook on
       Diversity and Cultural Sensitivity in Mental Health 
       addresses the importance and relevance of cultural 
       sensitivity in US mental health. Prominent researchers and
       clinicians examine the cultural and cross-cultural mental 
       health issues of Native American, Latino, Asian, African 
       American, Middle Eastern, Refugee and LGBQT communities. 
       The discussion includes understanding the complexities in 
       making mental health diagnoses and the various meanings it
       has for the socio-cultural group described, as well as 
       biopsychosocial treatment options and challenges. In 
       understanding the specific populations, the analysis 
       delves into overarching concepts that may apply to 
       specific populations and to those at the intersection of 
       multiple cultures. An invaluable resource for mental 
       health professionals, including clinicians, researchers, 
       educators, leaders and advocates in the United States, The
       Massachusetts General Hospital Textbook on Diversity and 
       Cultural Sensitivity in Mental Health provides the 
       necessary understanding and insights for research and 
       clinical practice in specific cultural and multicultural 
       groups.
