Good development, respectful to but not precious about its characters, and a good set up for the final chapter. Can’t wait to read it.

A bit dry, but refreshingly short, and mostly achieves its goal of leveraging the long history of and latest research into implicit bias, demonstrating the undeniability of its presence in us all. This has strong implications for how we treat each other, and how we ought to be critical of the outward manifestation of our unconscious and unexamined biases. While we are not all racist, we are certainly all prejudiced. This book does a good job of increasing awareness of these issues, and ought to leave any reasonably empathetic and self-conscious person skeptical about the underlying reasons their actions. High recommended.
