Multicultural Education of Children and Adolescents covers the five prevalent cultural groups and shows the components of responsive multicultural education programs. Focusing on African, Asian, European, Hispanic, and Native American cultures, this comprehensive text explores language, family, social class, and learning challenges. In this third edition, the authors have expanded the definition of multicultural education to include gays and lesbians, as well as individuals with disabilities. This is the only text that looks at both people with differing cultural backgrounds and the design and implementation of multicultural education programs.
