Reviews

If you've ever thought that the topic of social class sounded abstract or dry - or that it was barely relevant to the education of psychologists - this is the text for you. Anne Noonan and William Ming Liu have created a psychological perspective on social class that is comprehensive, scholarly, and politically-literate, but also accessible, spirited, personal, and contemporary. Students and other readers will find engaging essays and exercises throughout the book that invite them into the exploration as they see its connections to other social justice issues and to their development as psychologists and counselors. Highly recommended. Laura Smith, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA Reading this wonderful book feels like you are in a conversation with the authors in their living rooms. This book is infused with warmth, intellectual rigor, fascinating narratives, and a call for readers to fully engage in the complex world of social class. The book will inspire many students who will resonate with the content and also will find their life stories represented in the narratives and text. In addition, the authors provided a very insightful perspective on the intersectionality of social identities, creating conceptual connections that are innovative and transformative. I strongly recommend this book for students, instructors, scholars, and interested readers who would like to engage with authors who share themselves and their fascinating ideas with compassion and creativity. David L. Blustein, Boston College, USA
