Rezensionen

"Social Equity & LGBTQ Rights is an important and well-written book for public administration and public policy students and practitioners. It is a welcome addition to the literature on social equity and social justice and should be assigned as a supplemental textbook in public affairs programs."

Mohamad Alkadry, University of Connecticut, USA

"Dr. Naylor's book is a major contribution to the field. It is well-written, and it comprehensively covers LGBTQ issues in the context of social equity. These issues tend to receive marginal coverage in our courses, yet they are so critical today. I recommend this book with great enthusiasm; it should be required reading in all public administration, affairs and policy courses."

Norma M. Riccucci, Rutgers University, Newark, USA

"Dr. Naylor presents the reader with important cases and a deep understanding of LGBTQ matters framed within social equity. Her contribution is especially important as many parts of the US experience a rollback of LGBTQ rights and protections. Dr. Naylor's book is an essential read for any college/university course on social equity and uplift."

Richard Greggory Johnson, University of San Francisco, USA

"In this important addition to the social equity literature, Dr. Lorenda A. Naylor connects the dots between theory and practice while providing a historical perspective and incorporating milestone events and landmark U.S. Supreme Court rulings. I recommend this book to public administration scholars and students, policymakers, government employees, and those who strive to 'walk the talk' when it comes to social equity."

Erik Bergrud, Park University, USA
