Publisher Synopsis
"Dr. Essie Lee's Book...is a treasure. I can't imagine a greater contribution toward the mutual understanding of women of diverse ethnicity in the coming millennium. She accomplishes the impossible task of producing a scholarly, well researched book that is a model of insight and compassion. Later comments by scholars and references to pertinent studies lend depth. I recommend this book to anyone who wishes to gain understanding of their future neighbors at home and in the workplace. I wish it were required reading for every college student. As a white female with roots in this country before our Revolutionary War, I thank Dr. Lee for providing me with greater understanding of my ethnic sisters."-Viola M. Young-Horvath Executive Director Federation of Organizations for Professional Women Read more...
