Customer Reviews

Great Service

I was very happy with the service. I received my order very quickly and it was in the exact shape that the description had said. I will defintley look to this for any orders I have in the future.

Great Information On Past Events

I bought this book for a educational psychology course. Typically, I never keep my books after the semester ends. However, this book I decided to keep, because there is so much information about event in America that I have never heard about. This book covers many multicultural historical events and aspects that are important in my opinion to know.

Excellent Book

This book is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to learn about prejudice and disrimination. It is comprehensive, covering a wide range of topics. It is also very interesting to read. A must for anyone who wants to learn about prejudice then and prejudice now. It is a misconception that prejudice and discrimination is a thing of the past or something that was dealt with in the sixties. This book will show you how racism still exists today in a much more subtle ( and sometimes not so subtle ) form. I recommend this book to professors who are teaching classes on prejudice and discrimination.
