Prejudicial Appearances

"Post is one of the most sophisticated members of the legal academy, and, not surprisingly, he offers here an illuminating contrast between certain conventional, 'formal' approaches to analysing 'discrimination' and a far more contextual, sociologically nuanced understanding of social practices."- Sanford Levinson, author of Processes of Constitutional Decisionmaking: Cases and Materials "Post's argument is rigorous, inventive, and indeed groundbreaking. The commentators respond elegantly, maximising the potential of their disciplinary backgrounds to produce interesting differences in their approach to the issue. This is an excellent introduction to the real contours of anti-discrimination case law and to the best thinking about what equal protection can and should be."- Janey E. Halley, author of Don't: A Reader's Guide to the Military's Anti-Gay Policy
