It is meant to be useful for readers at all levels: from those new to employment discrimination law, to those who are moderately familiar or with advanced knowledge. While providing a basic but complete introduction to employment discrimination law, Employment Discrimination also contains a wealth of public access and supplemental material, such as laws, courts cases, and compliance manuals, to meet the needs of every reader. The text also includes boxed inserts from legal and social science sources that demonstrate how practitioners can apply employment discrimination law in the workplace.
