In this invaluable contribution to the literature, editor Maria Kronfeldner has brought together an impressive international team of experts to examine the dismayingly diverse ways and realms of human interaction in which dehumanization can and continues to take place. One can only hope that this major work in theory will help in the reduction and—one day—the ultimate elimination of the practice.” - Charles W. Mills, The Graduate Center CUNY, USA
