<br> Weber is unwavering in her commitment to documenting the intersection of these constructs and she succeeds where others have not. The five themes are invaluable teaching tools and the case studies make for useful discussions in class. The text fills a void in the academic literature. It accomplishes what we, as instructors, all give voice to but are rarely able to achieve--a comprehensive analysis of the intersection of race, class, gender, and sexuality. --Melissa Bonstead-Bruns, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire<br> Exhaustively researched and lucidly written, this book is a model of intersectional scholarship. Weber brings to life the simultaneous workings of race, class, gender, and sexuality. She goes even further by providing students and professors the tools they need to connect systems of power and inequality. For years I have adopted the first edition of this unique and persuasive book. I would not want to teach my structural inequality course without this text. --Maxin

Students can really learn how to develop a lens for an intersectional analysis. Focusing on education as a realm for exploration for students is great, since my students have little experience with another formal institution. --Elizabeth Higginbotham, University of Delaware
