Reviews
"An excellent resource for faculty and student affairs professionals in all segments of higher education who want to better understand their mutual relationships and responsibilities in preparing students for a pluralist democracy.' --Gwen Dungy, executive director, NASPA "Campus leaders besieged by critiques of the academy will find this book a wellspring of inspiration, encouragement, and practical examples. Guarasci, Cornwell, and their colleagues show us that, beyond the rhetorical storm we call the culture wars, faculty members are inventing new forms of learning and service in which students engage the complexity of American experience and learn to take new kinds of responsibility for the quality of our communal lives. An inspiring book." --Carol Schneider, executive vice president, Association of American Colleges and Univerirector, American Commitments: Diversity, Democracy and Liberal Learning "Democratic Education in an Age of Difference proposes a curricular response to the contemporary dilemma in the U.S.: how to reconcile the quintessential American dream of an ideal democratic community with the culture of difference which characterizes our society today. The authors eloquently and persuasively argue that institutions of higher learning must maintain an ethos which not only defines and dignifies difference theoretically, but also in practice. A focused and pragmatic discussion of an issue central to today's campuses." --Tamar March, dean, Academic Programs, Radcliffe College ?In a time of cacophonic claims and narrowing horizons, a critical challenge seems to face liberal education: how to link intellectual performance to the imperative of a multicultural American civilization. The unusual and practical solutions offered in this book should be read by all who are confronting this critical issue.' --Ahmed I. Samatar, dean and professor, International Studies and Programming, Macalester College

I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!Mistress of Shenstone by Florence L. Barclay HC 1910 (N° 335940140985)
- a***p (8)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoI received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque HC 1930 (N° 396258036329)
