This text overviews the problems of discrimination against particular groups and the law which attempts to deal with them. Emphasis is placed on the social and political context in which the law operates and on the theoretical underpinnings for existing law and proposals for reform. The book concentrates on the principles of discrimination, covering all the grounds of discrimination usually found, but using the law of employment as the central area of investigation. Although not comparative in its approach, the book refers to cases of other legal systems around the globe to illuminate discussions regarding UK law.
