Book Synopsis Language, Literacy, and Power in Schooling by : Teresa L. McCarty
Book excerpt: This text brings critical ethnographic perspectives to bear on the negotiation of language, literacy, and power in culturally and linguistically diverse contexts, showing how literacy and schooling are negotiated by children and adults and how schooling becomes a key site of struggle over whose knowledge, discourses, and literacy practices "count."
