Title: Diversity and detective fiction
Description: "Diversity and Detective Fiction is the first collection to articulate the pedagogical strategies of using detective fiction texts to investigate the politics of difference. The volume examines the many ways in which diversity is posited by contemporary writers exploring distinctive American subcultures.

The distinguishing characteristic of the book is its mix of essays focusing on teaching cultural diversity in the classroom and illustrating diversity through fiction to the general readers."--BOOK JACKET.
