Publisher Synopsis
Debatable Diversity: Critical Dialogues on Change in American Universities by Raymond Padilla and Manuel Montiel is a must read for anyone concerned about change in U.S. higher education. I found this book extremely informative, though provoking, and inspirational. Padilla and Montiel's open, frank and lively discussions are certain to serve as a guide for the next generation of academics and administrators who seek to engage the university as a place that should model the idelas of social justice and equity. * Harvard Educational Review * Gutsy in style and plain talking. There are lessons here for higher education, and not just for Chicanos. -- David C. Berliner, Regents' Professor Emeritus, Arizona State University Read more...
