"Gomberg writes in a hard-hitting, knowledgeable and engaging way about the problems of racism in society and marshals an array of evidence to illustrate his case." (Ethical Theory and Moral Practice)
“Paul Gomberg makes a powerful and provocative case that
real equality of opportunity can only be achieved by overturning
the social division of labor that unfairly handicaps not just
blacks but the working class in general.”
–Charles W. Mills, University of Illinois at Chicago
“An important and original contribution to contemporary
debates about justice in political philosophy; an accessible
introduction to those debates for students and the lay reader; and
a powerful and important challenge to policymakers, educators and
employers, to think hard about their responsibilities for enabling
people to lead flourishing lives.”
–Harry Brighouse, University of
Wisconsin-Madison
“In this impressive book, Paul Gomberg argues ardently,
with great optimism, and with philosophical and sociological
sophistication, for a radical new theory of egalitarian
justice."
–David Copp, University of Florida
"hard-hitting, knowledgeable and engaging"
–Alexander Brown, University College London
