Designed to serve as both a textbook and a course guide, Diversity in Perspective: Thinking and Acting helps students interrogate their own positionality so that they can better understand others and how they experience the world. The book also teaches students how to carefully consider information sources, particularly those pertaining to controversial issues including culture, diversity, multiculturalism, and social justice.

The second edition has been organized into two new units—""Diversity and Perspective Thinking"" and ""Diversity and Perspective Acting."" The book features a narrative format and a focus on personal experiences with facets of identity and how they provide access to different types of capital. This edition expands upon the intersectional nature and the innate complexity and fluidity of identity. It also includes new readings that examine diversity in race, ethnicity, language, age, gender, sexual orientation, and the field of ethnography.

Experiential in nature and aimed to help students develop both personally and professionally, Everyday Diversity is well suited for human diversity, critical literacy, introduction to research, education, health sciences, qualitative research, ethnography, anthropology, and sociology courses.
