This volume looks at the subject of teaching diversity. Instead of looking at the boundaries that separate different cultures, the text uses the approach from the inside out. In other words, learning about one's own ingrained assumptions will eventually lead to an appreciation of others' value and beliefs. This primer provides a learning-in-practice model where students, through the use of exercises, strategies and conceptual material, first recognize and develop their own communication styles and then work on how they interact with others.
