Reviews

"The audience for this book will be broad. Issues of class are going to receive in the coming years the kind of attention given recently to gender and race. Class is coming into its own, and this book will certainly be required reading."--Gary Tate, coeditor of Coming to Class: Pedagogy and the Social Class of Teachers "An interesting, useful, and diverse collection of articles in a new field. It offers teachers much to learn and think about."--Ira Shor, author of When Students Have Power: Negotiating Authority in a Critical Pedagogy
