Review

The authors of Aboriginal Conditions are unapologetically quantitative in their approach, and, it must be said, sophisticatedly and successfully so. Ultimately, I think this book represents an important addition to any serious discussions regarding Aboriginal issues in Canada and I highly recommend its adoption in any number of courses with Aboriginal issues content. (Chris Anderson, School of Native Studies, University of Edmonton The American Review of Canadian Studies, Spring 2005)

Grounded in recent research, this book successfully identifies key issues bearing on the current social challenges Aboriginal people face in Canada. (Nathalie Piquemal, Faculty of Education, University of Manitoba Great Plains Research, Spring 2005)
