In twenty original chapters, leading scholars in the field draw on the most current research and thinking to reflect on how different groups of people in our society must confront and deal with the different social realities reflected in long-standing social attitudes, social policies and laws, and our social institutions. The book examines similarities as well as differences in the experiences of diverse groups including African-Americans, gays and lesbians, the elderly, and others—highlighting cross-cutting themes such as oppression, intergroup dynamics, culture, and identity. The authors also explore the applications of varied approaches to diversity to the research process and offer practical guidelines on how to conduct diversity-conscious and diversity-sensitive projects and research.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jossey-Bass","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989388312805,"sku":"NP9780787900298","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780787900298.jpg?v=1761783915","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/human-diversity-isbn-9780787900298","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
