Cultural Diversity in the United States: A Critical Reader

"Susser and Patterson have compiled a work we have long needed: a set of fine-grained historical analyses stretching across the four fields of anthropology, which makes the understanding of diversity its central focus. Containing ample supplementary references and detailed practical suggestions for teaching, this treasure will be indispensable for anyone interested in the politics of difference in contemporary U.S. culture." Emily Martin, Princeton University

"This volume greatly enriches the understanding of cultural differences and will doubtless inform future discussion and debate." Choice

"Cultural diversity is, simply put, the best reader available on the complex connections between race, ethnicity, class, and gender in the United States" Matthew C. Gutmann, Brown University, Journal of The Royal Anthropological Institute
