I agree with the above review. I found explanation of structure to be fairly good, however, the stories were as described. It does seem politically motivated. Homosexuality & Religion, A poor attempt at Spirituality, Racism (actually a good piece by W.E.B. DuBois) etc. I would stick to the Bedford Guide and leave Philosophy, Theology and Sociology to their respective studies. In addition, it does not have Turabian styles included in this manual this you will have to purchase separately.
Odd collection of essays. January 14, 2006
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Most of these essays are very run-of-the-mill rants about racism, sexism, and plastic surgery. There are a few gems like Orwell's "The Hanging" (a subtle piece that exposes the injustices of capital punishment), and "Lost at C" by Jean Shepard. There are also some plain stupid ones like "The Travels of an Onion" and "Neat People versus Sloppy People" which are simply unnecessary.
I see the need for colleges to teach students about racial inequalities and cultural differences, but bad writing is unforgivable.
