Mike Seal is the National Officer of the Professional Association of Lecturers in Youth and Community Work, a Visiting Professor at Newman University Birmingham, UK, and Leeds Beckett University, UK, and a freelance educational consultant.
Mike is an educator who wants us to understand and confront the issues which increase inequality for many students. This book helped me think more deeply about class, race and mental health which disadvantage many students. The accessible style and language made it a pleasure to read. Readers also have the added bonus of being able to apply some good practical solutions to their own academic practice * Susan Smith, Professor and Associate Director, Centre for Learning and Teaching, Leeds Beckett University, UK *
