What Reviewers Said about Earlier Editions

– Kenji Hakuta, Stanford University, American School Board Journal

 

"Interesting, informative, and exceedingly well-written. ... A valuable resource  for practitioners, policymakers, and others."
– G. Richard Tucker, Carnegie-Mellon University, NABE Journal

 

"An excellent review of recent research and theory." 
– Jim Cummins, Ontario Institute for  Studies in Education,
Empowering Minority Students

 

"Incisive ... superbly written and exquisitely organized. ... The 'fraud or libel' proceedings which U.S. English threatened ... indicate that this book pulls no punches. ...  Should be sent to every legislator and schoolboard member in the U.S.A."
– Joshua A. Fishman, International Journal of the Sociology of Language

 

"A noteworthy addition to the literature."
– Carlos Ovando, Indiana University, Harvard Educational Review
