Many of the 13 chapters of this text are new to the second edition; the remaining chapters have been revised. The impact of the events of 9/11 is the topic of three new chapters, which deal with its overall impact as well as specific repercussions to Muslim students. Other "invisible" children are students who are American Indian, Korean- American, who speak English as their second language, those who are homeless, gay and lesbian, and those with HIV/AIDS. The contributors are academics and some graduate students in education and sociology. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
