'I really like the way that The Social Construction of Difference and Inequality is organized because it provides students with a range of issues to contemplate and gives them a good basis for further in-depth discussion and research. Students really like this text because of its clarity and range of interesting articles.'--Rosemary Shinko, American University

'This book is a foundational text for understanding the various constructions of identity and how we, as social participants, make sense of our interactions with other human beings. The conversations, concepts, stories, and writing are composed and arranged in a manner that allows students to gain insights that enhance classroom discussions.'--Dominick N. Quinney, Albion College

'What I find effective in The Social Construction of Difference and Inequality is the author's centrality of categories of race, class, gender, and sexuality, and how they are socially constructed and transformed by such social institutions as the family, education, the economy, state, and the media. The author's ability to demonstrate how categories of difference are embedded in social institutions that maintain inequality is unique.'--Hortencia Jimenez, Hartnell College
