Recenzje

"From an outsider’s perspective, East Asia is frequently seen as homogeneous in population and culture. This assumption is based on a perception that the Sinosphere is made up of countries that were historically under Chinese cultural influence. In reality, there is vast cultural and social diversity in East Asia. Because it informs readers about current diversity-related issues in the region, Minority Students in East Asia: Government Policies, School Practices and Teacher Responses, edited by JoAnn Phillion, Ming Tak Hue, and Yuxiang Wang, makes a significant contribution to the field of East Asian studies and minority and multicultural education." -- Sheena Choi in Comparative Education Review February 2013, Vol. 57, No. 1: 169-170.
