"I read it in an immigrant experience class. Takaki makes some good points, but they're somewhat lost in long-winded explainations and random Shakespearean allusions."
"I read this book as an assignment for my history class. It was long, but not difficult. I learned a lot about the multi-cultural building of the United States. I was previously unaware of how difficult it has been for minorities in the U.S. I am left with many questions, especially regarding how we as a nation can come together as one nation, under God."
"I had to read this for my Diversity and Social Diversity class. I was surprised by how much I liked it and how it made me see things a different way."
