Book Review:

"Language, Culture, and Identity among Minority Students in China: The Case of the Hui is

written by Yuxiang Wang, a curriculum scholar, who builds on the history of curriculum

studies with his post-colonial multicultural study of the minority Chinese - Hui. Wang’s

study is an excellent example in response to UNESCO policy, which encourages countries to

protect the rights of ethnic minority populations and their languages. Wang’s work also has

a huge contribution to engagement in international cross-cultural work in fields of

education and curriculum studies." ---Tai Van Vo in Canadian Journal of Action Research
