Rereading America: Cultural Contexts for Critical Thinking and Writing

"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.Gary Colombo is the author of 'Rereading America: Cultural Contexts for Critical Thinking and Writing', published 2007 under ISBN 9780312447038 and ISBN 0312447035.
