Recenzii

'This book provides a lucid and timely contribution to understanding the issues and debates about 'race', ethnicity and education. In covering the past thirty years it offers crucial information to all those who either do not know, or have forgotten, the intensity of arguments over diversity, racism, and inclusion. In constantly inviting readers to reflect on their own experiences it brings reality into academic research and writing. It should be read by a wide audience but especially practitioners at all levels of education.' Sally Tomlinson, Emeritus Professor of Education at Goldsmiths College, University of London, UK, and Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Education, University of Oxford, UK
'Walters cuts through the myths of the race and education debate with step-by-step precision, answering with clarity the difficult questions we were always too afraid to ask. No student, teacher, or educational practitioner who cares about racial equality in schools should be without this invaluable book.' Heidi Safia Mirza, Professor of Equalities Studies in Education, Institute of Education, University of London, UK
'This book is both informative and thoughtful, not only providing insight into the complexity of this area, but also challenging the reader to critically engage with the methodological strengths and weaknesses of the accompanying research.' Helen Fisher, Senior Lecturer in Special and Inclusive Education, University of Roehampton, UK
'Sue Walters has written a book that places this complex and contentious topic in the light of the development of theories and the findings of research...Beyond being an important introduction to the impact that race and ethnicity have in education and achievement, the book offers an enlightened interpretation of research methodologies and findings...An essential book for all of us who are committed educators.' Ofelia García, Professor of Urban Education and Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian Literatures and Languages, Graduate Center, The City University of New York, UK
