This review is from: Crisp: Putting Diversity to Work: How to Sucessfully Lead a Diverse Workforce (50-Minute Book) (Paperback)

Concise, focused workbook/handbook dealing with diversity issues.
I was surprised and almost appalled, however that the book includes no table of contents, or even an index.
