Cool:
It's an easy read, I'm using it for a Diversity class. I like because the chapters are short.
Great value, informative and insightful, but a bit dry at times:
Having purchased this as the required textbook for my Cultural Diversity class, I foundd the best feature was the price! Most of my books were about twice as expensive as this one. The text itself was very interesting and insightful, but the reading tended to get a bit dry at times.
Is a required textbook for my managing diversity class:
This isn't a bad book. It was required for a managing diversity class I am taking in graduate school. The content is short readings on various topics generally centering around cultural diversity and discimination. There are group exercises in between some of the readings. The book is very much centered around being used in a group-discussion oriented classroom. I don't think it is worth what is being charged for it, but as far as textbooks go, it is pretty inexpensive.
