Description: Racism in Contemporary America is the largest and most up-to-date bibliography available on current research on the topic. Almost 15,000 entries to books, articles, dissertations, reports, and other materials are organized under 87 subject-headings. Items describing both personal and institutional racism are included. A very wide range of viewpoints may be found among the authors listed. Several aids help the researcher access the materials included. In addition to the subject organization of the bibliography, entries are annotated whenever the title is not self-explanatory. An author index is followed by an ethnic-racial index which makes it convenient to follow a single group through any or all the subject headings. This is a source book for the serious study of America's most enduring problem; as such it will be of value to students and researchers at all levels and in most disciplines.
