"Frances Widdowson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics, Justice, and Policy Studies at Mount Royal University. She has co-written and co-edited (with Albert Howard) two books on Aboriginal policy, Disrobing the Aboriginal Industry: The Deception Behind Indigenous Cultural Preservation, shortlisted for the Donner Prize, and Approaches to Aboriginal Education in Canada: Searching for Solutions. She is currently editing a volume on indigenizing the University, and is undertaking an investigation of how advocacy studies are ""murdering"" the human sciences."
A fearless book, Separate but Unequal needs to be read for its rigorous critique of conventional wisdom-on the right and the left-about the history, the current conditions, and the best ways forward for Indigenous [P]eoples in Canada. It makes a unique contribution to our most important public policy debate. -- Leslie Pal This new book by Professor Widdowson must be read by anyone who wants to understand and improve the lives of Indigenous People. -- Professor Emeritus Rodney A.
