At the same time, it contributes toa theoretical formulation that addresses the issue of equity for all occupations.>>> (Eugene Litwak) I have never seen a book on school administration that is so open and forthright in telling the true facts about prejudice in hiring and promotion...This is a superb treatment of a difficult topic.>>>> (Rosella Linskie) This is an important book with serious implications for public policy in education.>>>> (Dr. Beverly Caffee Glenn) At last!
