Oxford University Press The Diverted Dream
Book SynopsisIn the twentieth century, Americans have increasingly looked to the schools--and, in particular, to the nation''s colleges and universities--as guardians of the cherished national ideal of equality of opportunity. With the best jobs increasingly monopolized by those with higher education, the opportunity to attend college has become an integral part of the American dream of upward mobility. The two-year college--which now enrolls more than four million students in over 900 institutions--is a central expression of this dream, and its invention at the turn of the century constituted one of the great innovations in the history of American education. By offering students of limited means the opportunity to start higher education at home and to later transfer to a four-year institution, the two-year school provided a major new pathway to a college diploma--and to the nation''s growing professional and managerial classes. But in the past two decades, the community college has undergone a proTrade Review"A comprehensive examination of the history and status of the community college in America. This volume is especially welcome because the community college, despite its importance, is the least understood part of the postsecondary education system. The Diverted Dream is the best analysis of the overall role of the community college to appear in quite a while and it will be a standard reference on the topic."--The Times Higher Education Supplement"Well-documented and raises important question about the role of education in our society. For the working class and minority students that predominate in two-year institutions, this book serves as a cruel reminder of the limits of opportunity in a class-structured society."--New York Times Book Review"This is an exemplary and significant book, in both scope and execution....This is a well-researched, well-organized, and well-written book that serves as a model of theoretically grounded sociological work at its best. I recommend it for all who are interested in education, political processes and institutions, social change, and organizations. It is likely to be the definitive work on community colleges and democratic ideals."--Contemporary Sociology"An important study that legitimizes further the debate on the social role of community colleges in American society."--Journal of Higher Education"Represents a monumental scholarly contribution to the literature on community colleges in particular and to higher education and the American society in general....It is 'must' reading for every community college scholar, practicing administrator, faculty member, and policy maker."--Community College Review"The book is a major contribution...to the institutional approach in organizations research....[It] may one day be considered a classic."--Administrative Science Quarterly"The definitive revisionist history....This is an essential work for anyone interested in balancing the conventional history of this unique American institution."--Choice"A comprehensive study of the junior college movement and, in so doing, make an important contribution to the literature on the history of American education."--Journal of American History"It tells an important story....The authors are to be congratulated because their retrospective account encompasses so much more than other writers on the subject. In a lucid, lively style they present and account for all the "facts" about community colleges."--Minerva"The long-neglected subject of community colleges in American higher education is illuminated with great intensity in The Diverted Dream....[The book] stands out not only as a major contribution to the literature on schooling, but as a powerful guide to significant features of American political and social development."--Ira Katznelson, New School for Social Research"This is an excellent expose of how the stratification system of education (especially higher education) works. It is well documented and gives a thorough examination of the history of the community college system."--Diana A. Bustamante, New Mexico State University

Oxford University Press Community Music In Theory and in Practice
Book SynopsisIn this book, Lee Higgins investigates an interventional approach to music making outside of formal teaching and learning situations. Working with historical, ethnographic, and theoretical research, Higgins provides a rich resource for those who practice, advocate, teach, or study community music, music education, music therapy, ethnomusicology, and community cultural development.Trade ReviewHiggins's passion and vision, as well as meticulous scholarship, make him one of the leading advocates for Community Music today. Community Music in Theory and in Practice is a very strong contribution to the field and a valuable resource. As I write this review, I have begun to tease out areas for further dialogue and debate of my own beliefs and indeed, I think that this is the authors greatest gift. * Kari Veblen, International Journal of Community Music *A challenging effort to understand the ideas of community music, that obstinate, creative, critical movement of informal music education and social engagement ... Most interesting is the theoretical discussion, which seeks to move beyond the familiar reading of the music workshop as utopian temporary community. * George McKay, Times Higher Education *Community Music in Theory and Practice represents a major contribution to the field of community music in both setting out the historical development and contemporary scope of the practice of community music and in establishing it as a field for international academic enquiry. ... Higgin's book will undoubtedly serve to enrich the practice of community music, to generate fresh perspectives and to inspire practitioners to 'dream the impossible' into the future. * Kathryn Jourdan, British Journal of Music Education *A compelling and captivating read ... Higgins seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of community music practice globally while also introducing some invigorating new theories about the processes underpinning intimate moments in musical group encounters. There is much in this book to nourish the school based music educator, as well as those involved in developing music educators. * Catherine Pestano, Music Mark *Table of ContentsContents ; 1.
