Book Description Job Discrimination is a straightforward user's guide that gives workers the know-how and confidence to fight back against unlawful workplace bias. Top employment discrimination lawyer Bernbach gives instructions on when, where and how to file a discrimination claim, and explores the myths and misconceptions of employer invincibility. The author clearly explains the legislation that protects employees and outlines courses of action once a decision has been made to pursue a job discrimination claim.

How to Fight, NOT How to Win December 4, 2003 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Bernbach's book is a useful primer on the mechanics of considering whether to file and how to file a discrimination based legal action. In that regard, it is practical and useful. It therefore fulfills one of its subtitle's promises - How To Fight. It does not substantively address the second promise - How to Win which is why I only give it 3 stars. While its case comments (not really studies) are interesting, there is little or no discussion of what can determine the ultimate success or failure of a legal action. For age discrimination cases, there is a much better book by Raymond F. Gregory titled "Age Discrimination in the American Workplace - Old at a Young Age." This book is very helpful in determining what it takes to win and presents more complete case studies in illustrating the important legal points and trends. This book, also available on Amazon, is not as procedural, so can best be considered an adjunct to rather than a substitute for Bernbach's book.
This book armed me with the ammunition to fight and win. July 16, 1999 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
This quick-and-easy read provided me with the ammunition I needed to combat and overcome injustice in my workplace. This book helped me to not only learn my rights, but also to gather my courage during a difficult and trying time. Anyone who suffers from discrimination, or thinks they are suffering from discrimination, should read this book.
A Must Read for All Members of the Workforce July 8, 1999 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
With all of the recent attention paid to employment discrimination in the media and in the courts, I thought I should read Job Discrimination II. I'm really glad I did. I now feel like an expert on the law and I am fully armed with the information I need if I should ever have problems at work. So far I haven't had any problems but I have some friends who have. I recommended this book to all of them. Bernbach manages to illuminate the reader on all aspects of employment law without ever sounding like a legal textbook. He also provides many examples from real life situations that make the book enjoyable as well as informative. This is a must read for anyone who works for a living.
