Reviews
"An interesting, timely, and well-informed book on the impact of present efforts to eliminate affirmative action in college and university admissions. It illuminates many complexities that should inform debate on the subject." -- Nathan Glazer , Professor of Education and Social Structure, Emeritus, Harvard University, " Chilling Admissions is an important contribution to a debate which often has relied more on rhetoric than reason. It will help elevate justice's side of the argument." -- Julian Bond , Chairman, NAACP, "This may be the most important book in higher education today. At a time in which affirmative action is under siege, this volume offers the facts--research on the consequences of repealing affirmative action, and urgently needed, workable alternatives for maintaining diversity on campus. It is a must read for anyone who cares about or is responsible for the future of America's colleges and universities." -- Arthur Levine , President, Teachers College, Columbia University, " Chilling Admissions is desperately needed. Its great value is to bring facts into what has become a sterile and abstract ideological debate, fueled by political appeals to those who feel threatened by minority groups. I hope it is widely read." -- Burke Marshall , Professor, Yale Law School, Former Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, "Sheds vitally important new light on the effects of affirmative action. Enormously valuable." -- Diana Chapman Walsh , President, Wellesley College

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
