Keeping Black Boys Out of Special Education Book

Although I agree with the premise and some of the ideas presented by Kunjufu, there are many problems with this book and I cannot recommend it. The book is not professionally presented. The reference notes are not a full bibliography and the index is very limited. References in the text are not well introduced or discussed, leading the text to have a choppy feel. Often references and even quoted passages are presented without enough context for the reader to follow the author's argument.
On further investigation, I found that although this is a publisher who publishes other works, it also seems to be founded and/or run by Kunjufu, so in a sense this is a self-published work without the benefit of an editor who could have helped clear up some of these deficiencies. Within the text one of his repeated recommendations is for a program this is available through his own website, which seems like a cheap attempt at self-advertisement. Kunjufu does not discuss or acknowledge the connection.
Added to these presentation and writing problems, Kunjufu seems to be drawing on experiences in education from decades ago and has little to no real contemporary experience. For example, he talks about 'ditto' sheets, a very dated term. He also seems to think that the special education experience means taking students completely out of the classroom, which is not typical today. The author also brings his own religion into the book and recommends that every African-American household should have a Bible.
Given all of these problems, it is very difficult to take this book seriously as an academic piece making serious recommendations for improving our schools.
