Opened up my eyes

I found the book very interesting and beneficial. It has opened up my eyes and helped me view diversity with a different perspective. It has helped me realize how diversity is all around us through wonderful stories.

Thoughtful, thought-provoking, and timely discourse

The collaborative effort of William M. Timpson, Silvia Sara Canetto, Evelinn Borrayo, and Raymond Yang, Teaching Diversity: Challenges And Complexities, Identities And Integrity collects essays by learned contributors each of whom focus upon a fundamental issue: how should diversity be pursued in higher education, and how can issues of diversity be handled in both a sensitive and adventurous manner? From the daunting task of teaching the diversity of world religions, to disability as part of the diversity curriculum, to a Native American perspective on teaching Federal Indian Law, and more, Teaching Diversity fully captures the reader's attention with its thoughtful, thought-provoking, and timely discourse.
