Paperback. Zustand: Good. "I so thoroughly enjoyed your class and I thought the textbook was excellent. The autobiographies were extremely beneficial to me as jumping off points to explore multicultural terms and concepts. Your fair selection of individuals, with such varied and complex backgrounds, made it impossible for any of us to fall into pet political or ideological paradigms - right or left.Thank you again for such a good learning experience."?Victoria Herbert, student at Claremont University"I really liked the textbook. The story format is superb because it allows you enter into ideas and concepts experientially. This tends to make them much more comprehensible and enduring than definitions or third person explanations. It also greatly increased my empathy for certain populations. Rachel?s story about the transgender child was extremely powerful in this regard. Finally, stories have a strong convincing quality. It?s hard to argue with someone?s experience." ?Stephen Schubert"I liked it. I actually enjoyed reading it which I can?t always say about grad school textbooks. I thought that it was easy to read and follow. It gave valuable background information which tied in history and current events well. This allowed me to more clearly understand society as a whole. I really liked the vignettes-looking at people?s experiences from different cultures, backgrounds, etc. it enabled me to better understand where people were coming from and their wordviews. It gave thorough descriptions of groups, theories, and sociology/psychology concepts. This helped me to better understand people?s struggles. ?Julie Mcshane"I actually thought it was one of the better textbooks I?ve had in the program specifically because of the life stories. I always think case studies are very effective because your learning is within a real life context rather than relying on just theories and then trying to apply those theories to actual situations?which can be difficult."?Lorraine Hayes, Northeastern Illinois University Story is one of the most powerful ways to creating meaning.
