Rezensionen

"O'Grady has edited a unique and intriguing volume that merges community service learning and multicultural education... This volume presents critical and challenging perspectives for anyone interested in promoting social change and engaging students in active learning within their communities".
Journal of College Student Development

"A unique blending of two strong fields in education: service learning and critical multicultural education....Clear, well organized, and thoughtfully written....I know of no other book that attempts this interesting integration of fields and find it timely and provocative."
Kathleen Bennett de Marrais
University of Georgia

"Carolyn O'Grady and the chapter authors of this book have taken on an immense challenge: to integrate community service learning with multicultural education so that together they inform and redefine one another. It is an awesome task. It means diving headlong into turbulent ideological waters concerning such issues as difference, meritocracy, unequal access to power, and the very purpose of education. By embedding service learning within the discourse of democracy, social justice, and equality, they have dared our society to live up to its lofty but unfulfilled promises."
