Abstract: In this book review, I detail unique interventions, gaps, and insights the authors of the text, Studying Latinx/a/o Students in Higher Education: A Critical Analysis of Concepts, Theory, and Methodologies, collectively make for the study of Latinx/a/o students in higher education, such as the imperative for culturally relevant, asset-based lenses to approach Latinx/a/o student issues. I highlight how the book is timely and necessary given the current sociopolitical climate, coupled with an enduring COVID-19 pandemic, and I note how it will behoove all members of higher education to critically interrogate how effectively current approaches to serving Latinx/a/o students accomplish their intended aims using texts such as this one. Additionally, I offer complementary resources for readers as they engage with this book and reconceptualize their understandings of Latinx/a/o students in higher education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
