Diversity in the Power Elite - Ironies and Unfulfilled Promises

Diversity in the Power Elite examines the diversity that exists-and doesn't exist-among America's powerful people. Revised and updated throughout, the third edition contrasts profound changes such as the election of Barack Obama and the growing acceptance of LGBTQ people with the stark reality that little diversity exists in many circles of power.
