内容简介

As the fire service becomes a microcosm of American society, Multicultural and Diversity Strategies for the Fire Service provides a useful tool to effectively address key issues and challenges of cultural diversity. This book provides valuable lessons on cultural competence, the value of cultural differences, and the acquisition of cross-cultural skills to be used in fire science college courses or fire academies at the city, fire-district, state or federal level. An advanced and exceptional multicultural writing team, the authors bring years of experience from positions of Organizational Psychologist, Criminal Justice instructor and State Police patrol supervisor working side-by-side with firefighters. Real world experience combined with strategies, information and tools in this progressive work will result in improved firefighter performance and professionalism.
