Reviews

"A delight: terse, well-argued, and utterly convincing." Economist; "Among contemporary economists and social theorists, one of the most prolific, intellectually independent, and iconoclastic is Thomas Sowell... Enormously learned, wonderfully clear-headed, he sees reality as it is, and flinches at no truth... Sowell's presentation of the data is instructive and illuminating - and disturbing." Carl Cohen, Commentary; "Another brilliant, bracing achievement by Thomas Sowell. With characteristic lucidity, erudition, and depth, Sowell examines the true effects of affirmative action around the globe. This book is compelling, important, mind-opening." Amy Chua, author of World on Fire: How Exporting Free Market Democracy Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global Instability; "A masterpiece that deserves to be one of the most influential books of our time. Any honest reader will be informed and enlightened." Donald Kagan, Yale University"
