Reviews

The attractiveness of Boren's book consists in the very richness of historical examples it provides. No part of the world is left out of the picture.. <br>-Social Movement Studies <br> The informational richness and transparency of Boren's text makes his Student Resistance a valuable source for those who seek empirical information on various historical cases of student activism.. <br>-Social Movement Studies <br> The strength of the book is its description of variations and continuities in form and action across time and place. The book works well as an introductory reference guide..... <br>-Choice, May 2002 <br>... many lessons to be found in Mark Boren's absorbing history of student activism, which ranges from Chinese student protests during the Han dynasty (in the first century B.C.E.) to the recent organization of the NYU graduate student union. <br>-Andrew Ross, The Village Voice <br> With student activism on the rise again, it isvery useful indeed to have Mark Boren's lively book ready-to-hand. His focus is broad enough so that anyone interested in the subject will have much to learn. This is history rich with lessons for all of us. <br>-Cary Nelson, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign <br>
