Description
Derived from the Fourth Edition of Joseph F. Healey's best-selling text Race, Ethnicity, Gender, and Class, the Second Edition of Diversity & Society: Race, Ethnicity, and Gender provides an accessible, jargon-free, sociological analysis of U.S. minority groups. Updated throughout, this abbreviated edition retains the conceptual frameworks and organizational format of the larger version, and is the only brief text to present a unitary sociological frame of reference for the analysis of minority-dominant relations.
