The prose in the book, however, is so scattered and so lacking in theoretical bite that I found the book far more frustrating than it was useful. If you are looking for a minor primer in some varieties of multicultural art and are mostly interested in the images, then the book would be great. If you want theoretical analysis, logical organization of ideas, clear and sensible themes, then you had better look elsewhere.
