Product Description:
Rereading America has remained the most widely adopted book of its kind because of its unique approach to the issue of cultural diversity. Unlike other multicultural composition readers that settle for representing the plurality of American voices and cultures, Rereading America encourages students to grapple with the real differences in perspectives that arise in our complex society. With extensive editorial apparatus that puts readings from the mainstream into conversation with readings from the margins, Rereading America provokes students to explore the foundations and contradictions of our dominant cultural myths.

There's not much to say when it comes to a text book. This book presents the material in a non-bias way that lets the reader decide what to take out of it.

It's not a book you'd want to curl up in bed with, but it also won't be one that'll put you to sleep.
