Publisher: Doubleday Anchor 1958 496 pages -- Approx. size: 7" by 4.25" With a world as it is today, I highly recommend this read. From the Back Cover: 'The Nature of Prejudice' remains the standard work on discrimination. Now this classic study is offered in a special unabridged edition with a new introduction by Kenneth Clark of Columbia University and a new preface by Thomas Pettigrew of Harvard University. "I first read this in college (late 60's and early 70's) at the time of Watts and Wilmington, DE riots. The treatments on the Nazi mindset was still relevant. My family schooled me to be a fine racist and I wanted to break from that mold. With the emergence of Black Lives Matter, I felt I had to review my attitudes again and understand the attitudes and beliefs of the White Supremist, skin heads, Ultra-right and some Evangelical Christians. I am even better informed now about myself and others and the formation of destructive attitudes and acts of violence. READ IT, it matters and has no political agenda. - A 70 year old white man who is still trying to learn." Via online review Extremely nice paperback in almost untouched condition. Slightly bumped corners. Spotless interior. Please see photos, enlarge and email with any questions. Thanks for looking. |
