Reviews

A refreshing read, offering a much-needed perspective on the limits and possibilties of law. * Sonia Katyal, Haas Distinguished Chair, UC Berkeley and author of Property Outlaws * At a time when our country seems to be going backwards rather than forward on civil rights, we are in desperate need of new ways of thinking about what it is that equality principles require of us as a society. This is precisely what Kramer accomplishes in this original and brilliant book. As he persuasively argues, civil rights law will continue to fall short of its full potential if it continues to emphasize groups over individuals and similarities over differences. Anyone who cares about the future of equality protections in the United States should read this book while urging others to do the same. * Carlos A. Ball, Distinguished Professor of Law at Rutgers University and the author of The First Amendment and LGBT Equality * Kramer says 'We are all outsiders' and I say-we all need to read this book. Outsiders is a wild ride into the contemporary realities of discrimination, identity, and accommodation. A tour de force, Outsiders offers an updated vision of civil rights law for the twenty first century. Insightful, engaging and well-written, this book will deeply shape the ways you think about equality in today's markets. * Orly Lobel, Don Weckstein Professor of Law, University of San Diego and author of Talent Wants to Be Free *
