Discrimination is practiced against innumerable types of people and comes in many forms. Though it is often associated with racial and ethnic prejudice, discrimination often goes far beyond this common form of the practice. People can be discriminated against because of their age-employers have been sued because of their reluctance to hire people who are older, believing they are out of touch with industry innovations. People can also be discriminated against, both in the workplace and in society, if they have a disability.
This edition is written in English. However, there is a running Spanish thesaurus at the bottom of each page for the more difficult English words highlighted in the text.
From Wikipedia:
Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen. First published on 28 January 1813, it is her second published novel. Its manuscript was initially written between 1796 and 1797 in Steventon, Hampshire, where Austen lived in the rectory. Originally called First Impressions, it was never published under that title, and in following revisions it was retitled Pride and Prejudice.
Prejudice exists in many forms. People discriminate against one another based on race, religion, weight, gender, and more. "Overcoming Prejudice" provides readers with multiple true stories of people who have faced various prejudices and describes how they dealt with it. A final chapter gives readers tips for how to improve their communication skills and prevent stereotyping in their communities.
