Excellent resource for any therapist

I needed this book for a course in my MSW program, but found it to be very enlightening, and a great reference source in practice.

very interesting

This book seems to take a very interesting look at biases, how ingrained they are in our every day lives and society. It brings to light things you would never recognize, such as word origins that are actually racist. Eye opening!

Book review

This book is very interesting...in that it has different articles that point out the social inequalities that we may not see in our society. The articles have different view points that explain what the author is trying to introduce to its readers. I think this book is very interesting and it helps point out some issues in our society that we may not ordinarily see.

Pleased Customer

I'm amazingly happy with this product. With the insanely high prices of textbooks on college campuses it is nice to be able to save money and also get the textbooks quickly. I'm completely satisfied with this seller.

Excellent Reading

This book was amazing in its scope and varying perspectives on issues concerning "minority" Americans. Both editors and incredible and I personally am really looking forward to reading Patricia Hill Collins' lastest book, Black Sexual Politics.
