I completely disagree with the previous reviewers who wrote negatively about this book. From the very first page of the introduction through the end of this text book, I was so impressed at the thoroughness in covering aspects of culture in America, especially that of students in today’s school system.
A reviewer complained that it didn’t give any solutions for solving problems in schools. First of all, this textbook presents the facts and information. A student is to take the problems that these students face and use them to find solutions. Sometiems the solutions are quite obvious. However, you must realize that giving people the solutions without explaining the reasons why first is quite dangerous and extremely ignorant. If solution book is what you are looking for, read C.M. Charles’ “Building Classroom Discipline” (7th Edition).
But even that book doesn’t over the diverse cultures that our schools contain today. The editors/authors of this book were very inclusive in writing compiling this textbook and I highly commend them and highly recommend them to you.
This book covers the different struggles that different groups encounter, their origins, the reasons why they have sustained or haven’t and why it is important to acknowledge the multiculturalism in our schools. Whoever didn’t “get” this book obviously didn’t understand what the title meant. I question if those reviewers even read the book, much less the introduction to the text book.
Kudos to Donna Gollnick and Philip Chinn on the best text book I’ve ever perused!

Well looks like I’m the man. This book sucks. But you’ll have to read it for a class. If somebody’s gotta read it might as well be you.
