So often, discussions about inclusion seem to narrow down solely to the needs of those requiring special support. This book demonstrates that inclusion is, above all, a culture—one that we all have the power either to foster or to hinder. It gave me many ideas for my upcoming lectures on gender diversity. From now on, I will begin my lectures with Gandhi′s words: ""No culture can live, if it attempts to be exclusive."" -- Virve Keränen
