In these pages, multicultural education becomes a lived experience rather than simply an unrealized ideal. - Sonia Nieto, School of Education, University of Massachusetts, Amherst; ""This is theory with heart and broad social vision. Teacher educators who care about equity and justice should pay close attention to Vavrus's important insights."" - Bill Bigelow, co-editor of Rethinking Globalization; ""Michael Vavrus has created an essential guide for any educator or policymaker seeking to transform traditional paradigms for teacher preparation and multicultural education."" - Diana Lam, Superintendent, Providence (RI) Public School District; ""...an indispensable book."" - Peter McLaren, Graduate School of Education and Information Studies, University of California, Los Angeles

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
