First, particularly for students of educational research, her analysis of how and why children and adolescents arrive at school with substantially different preconceived narratives about American history--and complete entire history courses with those dichotomous narratives substantially intact--makes a fascinating and instructive research case study (Yin, 2009) on the effects of pedagogy and curriculum materials on learning....Second, particularly for teachers of history, social studies, and race and ethnicity, her book provides several empirically-tested suggestions for how best to teach about and discuss issues of race, both to ethnically homogenous and multi-ethnic classes. Moreover, she provides numerous resources for curriculum and supplemental materials and activities that could well enrich both in-class and out-of-class learning about race in U.S. history. -- Teachers College Record, Date Published: January 22, 2009<p> """Her [Epstein] book should appeal to several audiences.
