"The material is very well organized and up to date. It is also wonderfully accurate. Prior to finding Mr. Bucher's text I had to pull from various sources to find well cited and supported statistics/facts and resources. It seems that each time there starts to be a gap in the material, Mr. Bucher is already addressing it and there is an updated text. This is the only text I know that when it is updated, it is significant so it remains up to date and accurate. Most other texts will just change a few things here and there. The students have also stated that they feel it is very well organized, easy to follow and understand. They love the examples and resources. What I love about the text is that it is informational and it provides a sound base for the learner to start from. It does not try to be everything to everyone but rather it provides a wonderful balance of information in a general way that still stimulates deeper thought. This text has made teaching the information so much easier. It has also allowed me to have more time in the course to expand because the book lays the foundation so well that we can build on it and have deeper conversations." -- LaVonne Fox, University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences "Diversity Consciousness provides an inclusive roadmap for understanding and dialoguing about differences. What I value in this book are the stories, the exercises and opportunities to listen through others about their experiences on various topics. The tools in this book and the dialogue are essential to having an understanding of how to navigate through our diverse society." -- Brenda Thompson, Principal Consultant for Diversity, MGM MIRAGE "The best diversity book I have ever read. Diversity Consciousness weaves everything together to give the reader a clear understanding of diversity issues and effectiveness. It opens your mind to understanding other perspectives as well as your own. It does an excellent job of making one self-aware, which is critically needed in today's society." -- Captain Dennis J.
