I'm a fan of psychology and leadership books, but not a fan of DIE principles (Diversity, inclusion, equity) as they have been tried and tested to be historically dangerous. I worry that under the "social equality" umbrella, we are raising weak, uninformed and naive youth that are out of touch with the realities of the world. I truly believe Dr Johnson is coming from a place of good intention, like most, and it all SEEMS good, but there are so many half truths, "often" and "many" statements and undertone of white man hating, patriarchy smashing, "it's not your fault you're racist/sexist/homophobic" it makes my head spin. From the psychological perspective, there are so many issues with implicit bias starting with the implicit association test to the retraining data being extremely limited, neutral at best and negative at worst and counter to the narrative! And not to mention the fact that implicit bias rarely manifests in behavior as stated by countless studies (see multiple by the creators of the IA test). But hats off to the author as DIE is definately a growth industry with many people/companies trying to appear more virtuous that the other guy. I'm going to go out on a limb and say this book sells 0 copies in China, India, Russia and most other places in the East where societies are far less egalitarian as a whole compared to the West. The West has been the apple of the world's eye so many years and still is, but yet I find it interesting people try to "fix" all the perceived radical inequalities within it from toxic masculinity to gender inequality to racial diversity. All these statements are absolutley smashed when you ask the simple question,

"compared to what or where?".

Is Japan, Iceland or Uganda racially diverse within business or as societies? How about the 70+ countries where being gay is not only frowned upon, but is ridiculously and unjustly considered A CRIME! Are women's rights celebrated in Saudi Arabia, Libya, Russia or the countless other countries with draconian anti women laws/sentiment.

Don't waste your time and money on this book, read ANYTHING by Carl Jung, Frankl, Piaget or (although not my favorite) Carl Rogers. Also there are a wealth of economic books by Thomas Sowell like, "Basic Economics", or "Economic Facts and Falicies" that offer significant historical world/US context and statistics.
