Review :
"Leading-edge thinking and writing, sophisticated and timely." -- M. Eugene Gilliom, Ohio University "To my mind, Wayne Ross is doing more than anyone else today in North America to keep alive (and, one hopes, to resurrect) social studies--the field certainly needs it. The authors represent the best in the social studies community today." -- Lynda Stone, University of North Carolina--Chapel Hill "There are too few new books in the field that explore the range of topics and issues as this one does." -- Peter H. Martorella, North Carolina State University
