Equality is an ideal to which we all aspire. Yet the more closely we examine it,        the more its meaning shifts. How do we explain how equal treatment can in effect        lead to inequality, while unequal treatment might be necessary in order to achieve        equality? The apparent paradox can be understood if we accept that equality can be        formulated in different ways, depending on which underlying conception is chosen. In        this highly readable yet challenging book, Sandra Fredman examines theways in which        discrimination law addresses these questions.The new edition retains the format of        the highly successful first edition, while incorporating the many new developments        in discrimination law since 2002, including the Equality Act 2010, human rights law,        and EU law. By using a thematic approach, the book illuminates the major issues in        discrimination law, while at the same time imparting a detailed understanding of the        legal provisions. The comparative approach is particularly helpful; by examining        comparable law in the US, India, Canada, andSouth Africa, as well as the UK, the        book exposes common problems and canvasses differing solutions. As in the previous        edition, the book locates discrimination in its wider social and historical context.          Drawing on the author's wide experience of equality law in many jurisdictions, she        creates ananalytic framework to assess the substantive law.The book is a        thought-provoking and accessible overview of the way in which equality law has        adjusted to new and increasingly complex challenges. It concludes that progress has        been evident, but uneven. Those dedicated to equality still face an exacting, but        ultimately deeply rewarding, task.
