scholarly, in-depth, readable look at prejudice and racism, August 30, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Prejudice and Racism (Paperback)
This is a most readable, in-depth and scholarly examination of prejudice and racism. The author discusses the different definitions of prejudice and racism and how people come to understand their meaning as well as learn the behaviors associated with these beliefs and attitudes. A helpful guide through very difficult concepts and perplexing behavior with clear research and everyday real life examples. This book clarifys the distinctions between prejudice, racism, and discrimination. It discusses how it manifests at an individual, institutional and cultural level within social, political, and economic situations. Historical and contemporary world examples are used. A truly interdisciplinary text, excellent resource, or simply an enlightening book for all disciplines and persons interested in this topic.
