Oxford Handbook of Workplace Discrimination

Increasing workplace diversity has given rise to growing intergroup challenges that persistently manifest in discrimination. An emerging science in psychology sociology and management has yielded useful evidence to be brought to bear on the important problem of discrimination but current literature is either focused on social (rather than work) settings on legal (rather than interpersonal) issues or on the general phenomenon of diversity instead of the social problem of discrimination in action. <p/>Edited by Adrienne J. Colella and Eden B. King <em>The Oxford Handbook of Workplace Discrimination </em>provides readers with a broad and interdisciplinary review of state-of-the-art research on discrimination in the workplace. In this volume Colella King and their contributing authors tackle the unique experiences of people from diverse perspectives and communities (including religious minorities gay and lesbian workers and people with disabilities); the myriad of ways in which discrimination can manifest and its overall consequences; explanations for discrimination; and strategies for reduction. This <em>Handbook</em> will propel future scholarship by clearly outlining the substantive questions methods and issues for the future ahead.<br>
