MUST HAVE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I'm getting a Masters in Education and read this book for my multiculture ed class. It is incredible. Good sources and very through. It will make you critic and re-evalute your prejudices. I think it is a must have for educators to read. As a teacher one must constantly be reading new books/articles on their content and their learners. I think this book is more geared towards secondary education, than elementry. It is easy to read and very insightful.

I've used this book teaching 10 classes in Multicultural Education for California State University at Hayward. It covers some "hot spots" like gender, special education, race, and social class. I've never had a student who expressed dislike for the book. It provokes dissent, emotions, and great discussions but maintains a well researched and professional style. I would recommend it to any professor of multicultural education and I eagerly await the 4th edition, coming this July!
