Reviews
In the voices of a diverse population of students, this volume offers a vivid depiction of what spiritual well being, engagement and inclusion means to today's youth. The unique social and cultural setting of Hong Kong provides a fascinating backdrop to these narratives, which are threaded together in a masterful way using current psycho-social theories. - Professor Ruth Hayhoe, University of Toronto; President emerita, The Education University of Hong Kong Through promoting the voices of Chinese and South Asian background students, this book makes a valuable contribution to current thinking about inclusive education practices and should be required reading for everyone leading or studying teaching and learning in multicultural contexts. - Dr. Derek Bland, Queensland University of Technology, Australia
