On first view, I was excited to read this book. However, after delving into it, it is quite honestly boring. Many concepts are repetetive and there is no attempt to grasp the reader. I actually found myself nodding off half way through Chapter 1. Sorry to the Authors, but I must speak the truth.

ok book
The first 2 chapters of this book really slam men of anglo-saxon decent. The rest of the book has good information on different religions, ethnic and socioeconomic groups, so is a somewhat useful reference book. Aside from the first 2 chapters, the book fairly presents information on multiculturalism that is informative, truthful, and unbiased.
