"Race" and Ethnicity in Canada: A Critical Introduction, third edition, is a core text intended for race and ethnic relations courses offered out of sociology departments at both the college and university level. Covering the major theoretical approaches that are central to the field, including socio-biology, political economy, and critical "race" theory, students are taught to thoughtfully assess-rather than blindly accept-widespread claims about "race" and ethnicity.

Editorial Reviews
"This book has many merits: it reads well, presents up-to-date research on a range of topics, and inspires students to think critically about racism in Canadian society. . . . In my view, this is the best textbook aimed at undergraduate students in courses on the sociology of 'race' and ethnicity." -Helmut-Harry Loewen, University of Winnipeg
