1.0 out of 5 stars Racist
Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2013
Verified Purchase
This book is racist and quotes way too much. It is racist because every race other than "white" is labeled as (insert region here)-American, like African-American, Asian-American, etc. White is just "white" in this book, rather than keeping the theme and saying Anglo-American. Other than barely any original work, due to quoting every two sentences, the book is great; it has good weight so I guess it can hold things down and my cat loves to lay on it, so it must be worth something.

This book is very complicated, and not clear to the point. It also seems that the author has a very bias point of view.
