Zelnick, a reporter for ABC News, obviously shares the opinion of many middle-class white Americans that affirmative action, however good its intentions, has helped foster racial animosity and inequal opportunity. Zelnick writes sharply, even angrily, about his own observations of affirmative action at work. If America is moving toward a consensus that affirmative action has outlived its usefulness, then this attack underscores the resentment driving that movement.

Book Description

Where affirmative action works and where it causes even its intended beneficiaries more harm than good.

Customer Reviews:

Affirmative Action Debate Overwhelms Author.......2000-11-21

Bob Zelnick and I agree that affirmative action as often practiced in the real world causes much inadvertent harm. Abstract principles may look good on paper, but fail miserably when acted upon. He offers us numerous horror stories that should legitimately enrage us. Zelnick takes to task the hypocrisy of the major corporations who readily advocate affirmative policies knowing full well it cost them little in doing so. The firms truly paying the price are mostly small to mid size business entities. Nevertheless, I still maintain that fair minded and well thought out affirmative action remedies can be beneficial. Zelnick conveniently ignores our nation's long established history of racial prejudice. He overlooks the cold fact that many white people have always made sure their relatives and friends received special consideration. There has always been a sort of affirmative action for the wealthy and powerful. Also, a minority person may be rejected for employment due to the tacit, if not explicit, bias of the company. People tend to choose their own kind. What should be done, for instance, about a business hesitant to hire an Afro-American individual to represent their services and products to its white customer base? In such an unfair environment, how can a minority candidate receive a fair break? Aren't we caught in a Catch 22 vicious cycle? There are no easy answers to this dilemma, but Zelnick refuses to look at the other side of this most important debate. Absolutist positions are far easier for us to handle, but this mind set may distort the actual ambiguity and complexity of the situation.

A real crisis, however, develops when affirmative action is used to give an advantage to the less qualified. How can a rational person justify the hiring of shabbily qualified minority policemen merely to comply with affirmative action mandates? The sports world suits up only its best players for the game. Long ago even the most racist sports organizations abandoned their prejudices because they were beginning to lose too many contests to integrated teams. Self preservation sometimes motivates one to do the right thing. Why abandon the principle that only the best be chosen when the conversation turns towards the business sector and academics? Why can't we be consistent? Zelnick's book serves the purpose of meticulously detailing the injustices of some Liberal conceived affirmative action policies. Do you require such documentation? If so, you should obtain a copy of Zelnick's book. I cannot, however, recommend it on any other level. Zelnick candidly subtitled his book as "A Reporter's Look at Affirmative Action." A journalist perspective alas does not suffice. This national discussion requires the attention of its social philosophers. Zelnick is not up to the task.

Interesting review of AA policies in practice.......1999-03-10

The author performs a credible job of reviewing many of the common problems associated with the implementation of Affirmative Action. Unfortunately, he fails to adequately demonstrate why these policies could not have produced any other results. For a more intellectual discussion on why discrimination (rather than racism, sexism, etc.) is difficult to maintain in a capitalist society, read Nobel Prize Winner (Economics) Gary Becker's The Economics of Discrimination. James Bovard's Farm Fiasco is an example of why the policies used in Affirmative Action fail whenever they are applied, whether the "problem" to be resolved is race, ethnicity, and gender or occuptional (farmers receiving subsidies, protection from competition, etc.).

Book Description

I Love You More than Beer. . . contains one hundred professions of true love, guaranteed to elicit gratitude, giggles (and maybe a little late-night action) from its female recipients. Author Rex Hamilton identifies things that men really love-golf, barbecue, cars, computers, Monday Night Football, the lawn, and, of course, beer-and compares those things, in tongue-in-cheek style that's peppered with sexy double entendres, to a man's love for a good woman. The result is page after page of hilarious but heartfelt flattery and the perfect gift for

Valentine's Day, anniversaries, birthdays, or just to say "Hey babe, you rock!" For example:

" I love you more than beer. You taste better than beer (even those pricey microbrews), you're less filling, and when I've had more of you than the law should allow, I can still drive.

" I love you more than golf. You're more fun to hold than the sweetest putter. I can score with you, even in bad weather. And you'd never penalize me for slow play.

Whether a guy needs to just say, "I love you," or needs a ticket out of the doghouse, I Love You More Than Beer is the perfect offering.

Book Description

Sport and dance command the passions and devotion of countless athletes, dancers and fans worldwide. Although conventionally thought to reside within separate social realms, these two embodied cultural forms are revealed in this benchmark volume to share a vital capacity to constitute and express identities through their practiced movements and scripted forms. Thus, the work of choreographers and coaches along with the performances of dancers and athletes offer not merely entertainment and aesthetic accomplishment but also powerful means for celebrating existing social arrangements and cultural ideals or, alternately, for imagining and advocating new ones.Drawing on a wide selection of sport and dance activities from around the world, this book elucidates the ways in which embodied performances both mirror and reshape social life. It traces, for example, how football, salsa and tango can each be employed to articulate or rewrite national and gender identities. Also examined are children's sport and the dynamics by which immigration and cultural integration, along with the socialization of children and youth, may be directed through the organization of community sport. The volume investigates the marshalling of sport and dance in settings from Africa to Ireland as vehicles for framing moral issues that revolve around the appropriate use, protection and exhibition of the body. This innovative study establishes the paradoxical fashion in which dance and sport can unite certain people and communities while at the same time serving exclusionary and nationalistic purposes.

Based on the largest, most representative sample of television content ever evaluated in a single research project, this volume offers a meaningful commentary on the issue of violence on television in the United States.

Pseudo-Science Masquerades as Real Science.......2006-10-15

This book is actually one of the most often-cited books purporting to establish a link between viewing violent television and aggressive behavior. This link is studied in several nations, from the United States to Poland to Israel. As a scientific book, one should not expect this book to be a page-turner. But one would hope that it would have scientific merit.

However, it does not. Although this book purports to support a link between violent television and aggression across nations, a close look at the results reveals that this is not true. Indeed, in multiple regression conducted, only among American girls, Polish boys and Israeli city children (but not Israeli children living on a kibbutz) was any link (a weak one) found. Among children in the majority of other nations, including American boys and Polish girls, no link was found. Furthermore no statistical adjustment was made for multiple analyses, raising the likelihood that even the results reported were "capitalizing on chance." Other methodological and reporting flaws make this book, although influencial, a poor example of science driven by a pre-existing agenda.
