The author`s selection of very accessible articles show how race, class, and gender shape people`s experiences, and help students to see the issues in an analytic, as well as descriptive way. The book also provides conceptual grounding in understanding race, class, and gender; has a strong historical and sociological perspective; and is further strengthened by conceptual introductions by the authors.

Students will find the readings engaging and accessible, but may gain the most from the introduction sections that highlight key points and relate the essential concepts.
