Best Value For Fifth Edition--beware pagination

This is a facsimile of the 5th Edition Nieto & Bode book, put out by Pearson Custom Publishers for university classes, rather than by Allyn & Beacon--so it is way cheaper (I know it is 5th edition as it gives that information on page three, and it was published in 2008, a year after the 5th edition's 2007 publishing date). As such it has no bells and whistles It is in black and white, but the text is here. It doesn't have a preface, and the text has some funky pagination after p366. Chapter Ten follows Chapter Nine, but somehow, pagination diverges by 40 pages, even as the chapters remain the same. So, weird... Anyhow, for $8 used (rather than $60 second hand for the A & B text) that I paid for it, it is good enough for my uses.

Every Teacher should read this book!

Excellent resource for the ever-important topic of Multicultural Education. Nieto is an awesome author and has put together quite the compelling work.

This is one that will make you think.

Nieto did a fantastic job handling this subject and I love how challenged I am by it! It really causes you to think very deeply about multicultural education and the sociopolitical factors that come into play. The case studies are the best part of this text, though. I love the fact that there are follow-ups in the back of the book for several of the kids! Even if you think you know all there is to know about multicultural education, you will be surprised by how much you learn from this very well-written book.

I received the book in ample amount of time!! Thanks!!

Sonia Nieto cuts to the core of multicultural issues

Affirming Diversity is an excellent text book for anyone involved in the field of education. This book is also a good read for parents. It reads fairly easily, and uses case studies to give insight to lessons. The case studies bring light to the experience of being a minority in a dominated culture. The book is written with sensativity and intelligent. Sonia Nieto is not afraid to write about the struggle, frustration and pain that minorities experience.
