This comprehensive resource blends the latest findings, new developments and recent legislation with practical examples and compelling interviews.

This edition guides you through differences in age, disability status, national origin, race, sex, weight and appearance as well as sexual orientation and gender identity. You examine groups that are often devalued and learn how dominant and non-dominant group members can work toward diversity and inclusion.
