Comprised of fifteen essays, Religion, Culture, Curriculum, and Diversity in 21st Century America, provides a cutting-edge examination of diversity issues against the backdrop of curriculum development and outcomes in Christian higher education. The primary focus on diversity of race, ethnicity, and disabilities is explored in comparison with institutional changes in these areas that harmonize the efforts of administration, faculty, and students. Hiring practices are analyzed, as well as recruitment and retention of minority faculty and students. This works' secondary focus is on similarities and differences between Christianity and Islam regarding international customs and norms of immigrants, primarily from Africa, Asia, and India on America's Christian academia. The work is reader-friendly and recommended for students and scholars as well as for laypersons desirous of keeping pace with current diversity trends in American culture and religion.

Recensioner i media

The importance of this particular edited book is that a vast majority of its authors teach at evangelical institutions....This anthology is an initial attempt by evangelicals at Oral Roberts University to once again reclaim the importance of valuing and teaching peoples from diverse backgrounds....it is important for scholars to note that all institutions are paying closer attention to the same issues. Especially helpful for students in courses such as multicultural education.SUMMING UP: RECOMMENDED. General readers, lower-division undergraduates. -- L. B. Gallien * CHOICE *
