Excellent Review of Native Education Canada

Although I have not read all of this book I am fascinated by it. It has provided me with with an excellent overview of native education in Canada as well as the disparities that exist between "Western" and "Aboriginal" education.A must have for anyone teaching in a native setting. Especially if he or she is from a different culture.
