Recenzii
The authors offer a history of the region including information on its diverse populations. They discuss selection criteria for books about the Middle East and provide an extensive, up-to-date annotated bibliography of relevant, quality literature. Explicit strategies for integrating recommended materials into the curriculum are given. A timely and important text.
The authors have packed a lot of information about the cultures, religions, politics, and geography of the Middle East into this well-organized volume. It's a solid guide for educators who want to teach their students about the region or who would like a good bibliography. The last section includes selected activities to be used with students. The book is well footnoted, and the authors' expertise is clear, although facts randomly culled from other sources sometimes provide a slightly haphazard overview. The authors are occasionally a bit heavy-handed in their desire to be sensitive to the area's cultures, occasionally leaning toward stereotypical portrayals or reaching a degree of insensitivity to readers' other cultures. Overall, though, this is a book that teachers and librarians would find useful, and for the extensive bibliography alone, it is a worthwhile purchase.
.worth having and recommended for all libraries.
