| Good Review of Subject Matter. Clear and Concise. 2007-08-21 |
| By Wrench (Houston, TX) |
This book provides a very good overview of the federal law of employment discrimination. While not incredibly detailed about every statute, this book gives you the bread and butter of what you need to know about each of the statues you would study.
Good for a quick review of the subject to go along with your casebook. |
| For the Discriminating Only 2006-08-23 |
| By !Edwin C. Pauzer (New York City) |
| I'm a training specialist by trade, and I have taught Sexual Harassment Prevention and Equal Employment Opportunity classes for many years. This book allowed me to appear as a subject matter expert because I was able to offer more depth in specific cases and topics. If you're discriminating about your sources, I know you will buy this. |
| Useful 2006-04-25 |
| By Jeffery Mingo (Homewood, IL USA) |
| I read this book in order to survive a law class. I also used it when I had an interview with the Office of Civil Rights. This book may feel cursory but it covers a large array of material. For those who are constantly suspicious about facing discrimination in the workplace, it may be especially enlightening. Though I gave my copy to a friend not involved in the law, I do worry about it being misused by laypeople. For example, you could be blatantly discriminated against, and this book may point to cases that reflect your own situation. However, if you missed a statute of limitations or your employer doesn't have a sizeable number of workers, etc., your case may be a loser. Still, filing with local anti-discrimination office is supposed to be free and of no prejudice to the worker. Since this summarizes the everyday law, it is not a cute, easy read. But it is useful. |
