Viac o knihe

Focusing on the politics of perception, the book introduces innovative concepts such as "tinted glasses," "unit-thinking," and "coherants" to explore how we interpret the world. By analyzing experiences in a Japanese heritage language school, a study-abroad trip to Sierra Leone, and college classrooms, it uncovers the influence of unit-thinking and fetishism across various settings. The work ultimately seeks to understand these dynamics and their potential to foster social change.
