Prejudice in the Modern World
Reference Library
NEW TITLE
Prejudice in the
Modern World Reference Library is an
in-depth examination of the historical
and social ramifications of prejudice
in several societies around the globe.
Written specifically to engage students,
this new resource is invaluable compared
to traditional references on the topic,
which tend to be single-volume circulating
works. More expansive in scope and detail,
Prejudice in the Modern World includes
comprehensive coverage of the issue by
providing an almanac of essential facts and
topics, biographical profiles of significant
figures as well as related primary source
documents, offering researchers a variety of
approaches to learning about the subject.
