"This new edition of Prejudice provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject, introducing the major theoretical ideas as well as providing a critical analysis of recent developments". (Bulletin, 13 January 2011) "This top-notch, readable authority on modern prejudices explains how groups target people as interchangeable category members, through a socially shared lens shaped by conflict and power. Brown expertly confronts today's multi-cultural challenges." - Susan T. Fiske , Princeton University "In the 15 years since the publication of the first edition of this book, there have been many exciting advances in the study of prejudice. Rupert Brown's well-written second edition of Prejudice expands his earlier volume with a straightforward description of these new advances. This welcome addition to the shelf of social psychological books is now the definitive text of choice on the subject. Moreover, with its 800+ item bibliography and new theoretical ideas, it can also be highly recommended for the specialist.

" - Thomas F. Pettigrew , University of California, Santa Cruz "Brown's original book, Prejudice , became the authoritative standard text in its field. Fifteen years on and that field has expanded massively yet this new edition remains a superbly written, comprehensive, excellently organised and thoroughly absorbing survey of the social psychology of Prejudice. It has been worth waiting for." - Dominic Abrams , University of Kent.
