"This anthology of opinion was culled from newspapers, periodicals, reports, and documents, published mainly in the late 1900's. The authors discuss contributing factors to this problem, generalizations that have become associated with it, and possibilities that might help to alleviate it... This title covers much ground and is generally well balanced... An extremely useful volume for research and reports."
-- "School Library Journal" (February 2003)
