REVIEW
From the Publisher: "Working Together" shines a bright line on group conflict and cooperation at a fundamental but understudied juncture in American social life: the workplace. Her study combines deep research and careful nuance with bristling insight and an accessible style that should attract a broad audience. For a host of reasons, American social analysts tend to minimize the importance of what happens at the job. "Working Together" is an important and impressive corrective."--Randall Kennedy

Praise for WORKING TOGETHER
"WORKING TOGETHER is an original and important book. With eloquent prose, Cynthia Estlund convincingly develops the argument, based on a careful integration of empirical studies and social and political theory, that working together enhances inter-group relations in the long run. This book has enormous relevance for students concerned about the future of civil society, and will be widely discussed and cited for many years." ---William Julius Wilson, author of WHEN WORK DISAPPEARS and BRIDGE OVER THE RACIAL DIVIDE
