Book Synopsis

Written by two UK-based consultants who specialize in diversity issues, this book provides guidelines for dealing with prejudice and stereotyping in the workplace.  The authors explain how to develop a diversity training program that can change attitudes.  Although the legal references are to UK law, most of the content and principles apply equally to any workplace where people of different backgrounds come together.
