«'For anyone needing to wrap their head around the current thinking on prejudice, this is the perfect one-stop shop. Contains the biggest names, with the biggest ideas in the field.' Matthew Hornsey, University of Queensland»
«'Illuminat[es] the necessity of diverse approaches for tackling this 'complex human problem' that is prejudice. … Allport 'demonstrated that it is possible for social science to contribute to the understanding and resolution of social problems and at the same time be value-oriented and socially sensitive', and showed how 'social scientists must be the contemporary custodians of such enduring human values as justice'. Sibley and Barlow's (2017) handbook echoes these principles in a theoretically and empirically grounded, impressive, well-written, must-read volume.' Becky L. Choma, Arvin Jagayat, David Sumantry and Vashisht Asrani, Social Justice Research Journal»

I would warmly recommend it to all academic libraries catering for work in psychology, social psychology, sociology, politics, etc. The subject ought to be of wide general interest.'
