“Read Stannard-Friel’s book for a variety of reasons: to learn a different way of teaching; to identify a unique approach to community-based learning; or to experience, through narratives, a walk through the Tenderloin. Enroll in his class through this book. You will be immersed not only in a community, but in the pedagogy of compassion in action. Know that you will jump down the rabbit hole and reemerge thinking differently about teaching and learning with the community.” (Patrick M. Green, Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagement, Vol. 21 (4), 2017)
