"Rereading America takes on the myths that dominate U.S. culture: myths about family, education, success, gender roles, race, and freedom. What do you think? These writers challenge you to look more closely at your own assumptions and become a critical thinker and an active learner--someone with the ability to shape, not merely absorb knowledge."--From book jacket.
