 Looking inwards... September 11, 2007

The "RCG" text edited by Rothenberg is truly a gem. It offers a myriad of perspectives from all Americans not just those with doctorate degrees or trapped in their ivory towers. I have used the text for my courses and have not had one student indicate that it was a nothing book or that they did not learn something of value from the book. Moreover, when the book is updated, the publisher and editor put an effort into demonstrating the changing landscape that is race, class, and gender bias in the "United States of America."

I read the previous edition of this book in Spring of 2004 for one of my Enlgish courses in college and it literally changed my life in many shapes and forms. My intellectual knowledge has expanded tremendously on the issues of gender, racism, racial prejudice, ethnic cultures, sexism, and classism thanks to this great scholar book. On my 22nd birthday I was given this new edition and I am glad a new edition was released with more updates and information.
I recommend this book to any person interested in those issues and concepts that shape our everyday life and our sociological evolution as humans. I am a university student of history and I have found this book to be a valuable tool for research papers and self-education.
I strongly recommend this book. If you are willing to read on the social issues that are absolutely necessary to understand our political, social and economic system, please read this book.

I had to buy this for a class. It is definitely the best textbook I've ever purchased. A textbook that really makes you think. I will keep it and refer to it in the future. I think it should be required reading for everyone.

Interesting Required Reading June 26, 2009

This is not a book I would have picked up if I was just browsing; however, I can honestly say it is a diversified collection of essays and information designed to open our eyes to "Race, Class, and Gender in the United States." I like it and have found out many things that are never talked about in history or business law. If you need this book, be prepared to have your thoughts probed and ideas enlightened.
