Trade Review
Recommended for professionals, practitioners, and graduate students. * CHOICE *
[Sampson] is truly a reflective urban education researcher and practitioner! The book is written in approachable style accessible to every reader...I would recommend it for pre- and in-service teachers, urban practitioners and policy researchers. It would be a worthy addition to libraries that serve those readers...a worthwhile addition to the literature on urban education and minority student success. * Education Review *
