Like any book, and regardless of the degree to which it achieves its goals, Dealing with Diversity has inaccuracies and argumentative weaknesses. The careful comments received from Asha Bhandary, Stephen Macedo, and João Cardoso Rosas highlight them lucidly. In what follows, I aim to address some of the points they raise as fairly as I can and, where it is possible, to defend the work I did in my book. At the same time, the reply to such keen remarks gives me the opportunity to clarify some parts that might seem opaque. Before proceeding to consider in some detail the criticisms received, I think it is appropriate to set forth very briefly the purposes of the book.
