Reviews

<p> You will be enriched by stepping back and looking at the whole spectrum of possibilites presented in this book.


<p> Reparations for the continuing legacy of American racism is the central civil rights issue of the twenty-first century. Henry's bold and insightful Long Overdue provides a detailed examination of the current rationale for compensation to African Americans. Long Overdue skillfully explores the political debate and controversies surrounding reparations, and provides constructive suggestions for what the movement needs in order to achieve its policy objectives. <br>-Manning Marable, author of Let Nobody Turn Us Around


Every essay develops a cultural studies approach to understanding the World Wide Web that feels more unified in purpose than many other collections. Moreover, unlike most of the other collections that comprise the new millennium wave . . ., Swiss's book sustains its commitments to critical perspectives throughout. The wide range of interconnected topics makes for a valuable re-introduction to the World Wide Web. -- - Journal of Advanced Composition
