Michelle Thomas Books

The book is in really good condition, and the vendor was out of town but he sent an email apologizing for the delay. After that I got it right away.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was easy to understand and well organized. I was able to learn a lot about Eastern Religions with this book that I got an 'A' in my Religions class. Yay!

This book is one of the most interesting text book i have come across. It gives enough details of every well known religion. there are also photographs giveen to show you what the tevt is explaining.

An excellent introduction to the world's primary religious and wisdom traditions: their origins, major tenets, peculiarities and similarities across the spectrum, and contemporary manifestations. Along with the companion book, An Anthology of Living Religions, this text offers a solid study in the world's religions.

While Living Religions is a good source of information, it was incredibly difficult to read. It was like reading an encyclopedia. I did not like the authors gender bias.

I had heard of Olive Thomas and her tragic death, but knew nothing about her otherwise. Michelle Vogel really makes her come to life as a person of talent and passion. That she cared to do all of this research 87 years after Olive's death is so important. I literally could not put the book down, since I was drawn in by the meticulous level of detail Ms Vogel provided: Jack Pickford's own tragic story, Olive's friends and their opinions about the circumstances of her death, and even her mortuary and burial records! I also enjoyed the photos of the Paris nightclubs which she frequented before she died and what these spots look like today. A truly worthy tribute. I am eager to check out Ms Vogel's other books now.

I certainly enjoyed this book. The vicious reviewers love to hack up other people's style of writing and research. They miss the point. That being said, kudos to Vogel for her great book. Olive Thomas was a very enigmatic figure in silent movies and her tragic end worth reading about. I love how Vogel leaves the reader the chance to decide how it all really ended. The book is focused and very in depth. Really enjoyed it. It's not a long read and that's better for stars of the silent era that fans don't remember. When they are not too long, readers really do get a better fix on them. If I could give Vogel and this book more than 5 Stars I would!

I was extremely disappointed in this biography. Little of Olive's early life and the development of her personality is touched on. Granted, there isn't much material out there to draw on, so I am sympathetic to the author's attempt to write a definitive biography of this interesting young woman. However, why this book is so expensive is beyond me. I was left with absolutely no new knowledge or insight into what made (and still makes) Olive such a fascinating study. It would have been more apt to title the book: The DEATH of a Silent Film Beauty. Building a biography around the mystique of her death is not my idea of time or money well spent.

I was so thrilled to buy this book despite the price, but while it is well written, I wish there was more information on what she was really like. I can't fault the author because too too many years have passed and who could the author interview?

Every silent fan should have this book in their collection. It is a good read.

Despite my disdain for Michelle Vogel's previous bio on Gene Tierney, I took a chance, laid out my $40 and purchased this book anyway, simply due to the sparcity of material available on the mysterious Olive Thomas. I'm sorry to say that this book is yet another disappointing, over-priced mess from Vogel, who has proven once again that she is a sadly negligent researcher as well as a surprisingly poor writer - that is, when she actually writes.

Vogel herself did not write the vast majority of this book - instead she lifted around 80% of her text from contemporary, public domain sources (specifically film magazines and reviews), in some cases reprinting lengthy articles in their entirety, often without rhyme or reason. The small amount of what original text there is is generally disorganized and poorly written. To add insult to injury, Vogel insists upon insulting the reader's intelligence; if I need to know what a middy blouse, tam 'o shanter, or mackinaw are, I will consult my dictionary; I certainly do not require lengthy definitions couched within the text by a condescending author. And this passage is simply ludicrous: "...David Selznick only added the O. as a middle initial (thus becoming David O. Selznick) after Olive's death..."! Duh, I certainly wouldn't have been able to figure out where that middle initial "O" fit into his name without your insipid parenthetical notation, Ms. Vogel!

The author also has an irritating habit of repeating herself. In one particularly annoying paragraph, Vogel says "many of Olive Thomas' films are now considered lost," then, "Almost half of Olive's films still exist," then, "the majority of Olive's work is lost forever." I get it - most of her films are lost (like I didn't already know that before I opened this book!), but in a paragraph consisting of exactly four sentences, is it really necessary to devote three of them to stating the exact same fact? Between her heavy use of previously published material and awkward reiteration, my overall impression is that Vogel has so little to say that she uses these blatantly sophomoric ruses simply to fill empty space.

Over-priced, under-researched, and poorly written...once again I feel duped. As with the Tierney book, Vogel is again exploiting the dearth of material on her subject. In this case she deceives silent film fans into thinking they are purchasing a long-awaited, full-blown biography but instead gives us a disappointingly weak high-school book report. The only valuable material in this slim volume are the photographs which, I must say, are plentiful enough although not particularly well reproduced. If you are a purist who must have this volume for your collection, try to get it at a discount - it truly is not worth the exorbitant cover price.

Excellent book for learning Microsft applications such as Work, Excel, Access, and Powerpoint. The book offers walk through examples that are easy to follow with pictures and step-by-step instructions. The Excel math problems may be off, I think, but overall, I learned a lot even though I've been using the applications for awhile.

This product came to me in great condition and shipping was very fast. It came to me in about two business days.And the price was great too. I am very happy.

I bought this book for a class I was taking and it arrived in bad shape.First, it took forever to get to me and it arrived all beat up. The book had water damage. It looked like it was through a flood or something. This made me hesitant on whether to buy any used books again.

When I started college as an older student I had never been on a computer. This book which is used as a textbook at my college was a lifesaver. You will learn the basics that are needed for college or for employment. I have to say the diagrams/photos that accompany every step are what puts this book above all others. If the pictures did not match what was on my computer I could go back and see what I needed to change. I work as a mentor for women in a non-profit program and use this book to teach them the skills they will need in the workplace. I recommend this book to anyone who needs to learn or to polish their computer skills.

THIS TEXT BOOK DOES NOT COME WITH THE REQUIRED DISK FOR COMPLETING PROJECTS REQUIRED FOR THE COLLEGE CLASSROOM.

If you have ever dreamed of hiking through mountains without all of the rugged turain that goes with them , then the grampions are for you!

50 WALKS IN THE GRAMPIONS is an excellant way to discover the many secrets that hide within the mountains. Good description of fifty different trials for the hiker/walker within you !

A brilliant buy for every keen traveller!

Dan Brown's second novel The Da Vinci Code has become a literary phenomena, spawning countless books related to the topic, a movie, a myriad of discussions, and so much more. But let's take a look inside this book shall we? The book starts with the murder of the head curator of the museum. Ah but that is just the beginning! The curator was able to leave clues for his daughter, who is a cryptographer herself, follows these clues to France and England, through the past and the present, Through cultured religion and the unorthodox searching for the Knight's Templar and the code the world's masterpieces hold. Dan Brown is a master of suspense and The Da Vinci Codes is just one more notch in this fabled author's cap. Beautifully written and without flaws this is one book I highly recommend!!

And for those who enjoy books on ancient cultures, I'd recommend: Fates

This is the second Dan Brown novel I've heard, the other being "Digital Fortress". The story line is a history teaser. It makes you want to go look at DaVinci's paintings, read up on Sir Isaac Newton, and find out about the Priory of Sion and the Knights Templar. I was disappointed in one area...these so-called experts couldn't figure out the codes to open the cryptex. When they said it needed 5 letters to open it, I knew right away that it would be some name for Sophie. After all, her Grandfather made the thing. The same thing happened in Digital Fortress...the smart people took too long to figure out an obvious password and an obvious secret identity of a character.

Overall, I would recommend this book, but go in with an open mind. It is work of fiction based loosely on historical fact.

I've read a few of the reviews and I cannot understand where they are coming from. First of all the book is a fictional one, no one said it was true, secondly even if it were true ,so what? It's not like someones committed murder ,Jesus happens to marry and settle down, what could be more natural and lastly just enjoy the book for what it is ,a wonderful read!

If you haven't read this book yet, what are you waiting for! I am very glad I read the book prior to seeing the movie. The book goes into so much more detail than the movie did. I found myself on the edge of my seat! I just couldn't put the book down! I bought the hardcover illustrated edition which I really liked. Even though Dan Brown went into great detail about the various sites, paintings, etc, it was really nice to see exactly he was describing there on the same page. I highly recommend this book!

I liked this book very much, and I should say that the illustrated version helps the reader to better understand the story. It is very engaging from the very beginning

I picked up this book being very skeptical, not knowing what I was diving into because I had heard and read some pretty bad reviews on this book. I love John Grisham and keeping in mind that he is famous for his legal thrillers I didn't really know if I was going to like this book or not. Boy I have never been so glad to be wrong in my life. I read this book in 3 days wishing it wouldn't end. I LOVED the story. I related to it a lot being from a small town myself and living somewhere where our high school football team has built a winning tradition. Not nearly as superb as the Messina Spartans in the book though I might add. I was very moved by the book and I really don't read a lot of this type of fiction. I was moved pretty close to tears towards the end. I can't belive this book doesn't have a high average rating than the one that is on amazon. I really recommend this book to anyone who loves high school football, or to anyone who lives in a small town that revolves around high school football during the fall. John Grisham proves the power of his story telling with this book and although I do love books like The Firm I think he shows us with this book that he can dive into other types of storytelling and keep us captivated just as much. Kudos Mr. Grisham! Kudos!

"Number 19 was a high school all-American, a highly recruited quarterback with a golden arm, fast feet, plenty of size, maybe the greatest Messina ever produced." Number 19 is Neely Crenshaw, former Messina Spartan quarterback. Neely has returned to his old hometown of Messina, where his former coach, Eddie Rake, is on the verge of death. Neely's number is the last retired Spartan number, and his return brings back memories of the good old days of Messina. Ultimately, he wonders if Rake loved him or hated him.
Neely meets many of his old teammates, who mostly have changed. Neely, through meeting them, strongly changes thruought the story. Neely and friends spend a lot of time reminicsing- of great games, good times, and friendships. Nate is his former punter, who has changed in an interesting way. Silo, the big goof, is still his same old self.
There are plenty more characters to keep the reader occupied.
This Friday Night Lights-ish story is a step in a new direction for Grisham. It uses vintage football lingo, so non football fans may have difficulty following it. The plot is stable enough to carry the story along, but it's nothing new. However, Grisham does a great job of keeping a reader hooked by adding new characters, who each add something unique to the story. this may be my first Grisham book, but I have heard that his other books are better. Overall, i give Bleachers a 4/5.

Grisham departs away from his normal lawyer dramas and this is what makes this book so refreshing. Having been a former football player myself, this book deeply hit those old memories. Walking upon the gridiron that we labored on since we were barely able to pull our shoulder pads on. This book's plot is pretty much figured a quarter way through, yet Grisham still compels the reader to continue along. Overall anyone who enjoys the sport of American football will enjoy this book, anyone else won't understand the importance of the way football brings together boys and makes them into men, forming a long lasting brotherhood.

It just wasn't my thing. It was recommended to me so I gave it a try.

It's a good story; makes you want to know whats coming next. Majority of these reviews here have given out the plot, so I am not going to repeat it here.
John Grisham is my favorite writer. For anyone who is Grisham's fan you will love this novel. It's not what Grisham's story is about that makes you love his books but its rather the way he lay down his characters and the way he narrates the story.
Grisham tells a tale to which many of us can relate personally, no matter what it is it can be a small thing from a Christmas dinner to a street lawyer reading a news paper to a crack addict, but you will still love it.
Having listened this book on audio, it is very entertaining because it is read by the author himself with several actors who sounds very much like the radio sports broadcasters, e.t.c.

Loved it.

This is a great book, it is the kind of book you don't want to put down. I like how there are several turns in the book, just when you have made up your mind about a character something new comes along to give you a new perspectve.

This is a pretty formulaic Picoult book. She tackles many issues in this book including kidnapping, alcoholism, memory, being a parent, etc. The novel is told from multiple perspectives: Delia, who finds out her father kidnapped her as a four-year-old; Eric, Delia's alcoholic fiancé who happens to be a lawyer and defends her father; Andrew, Delia's father who spends a majority of the novel in jail; Fitz, Eric and Delia's best friend; and Elise, Delia's mother who has not seen her daughter in twenty-eight years. In true Picoult fashion, the sequence of events plays itself out: Andrew gets arrested and sent to Arizona to await trial, Delia, Eric, and their daughter relocate there temporarily, Fitz tags along and creates friction, Delia meets her mother, whom she thought was dead, and a trial begins, with Eric as the defense attorney.

Like all of Jodi's books, I was captivated and got though Vanishing Acts very quickly. It wasn't quite as engaging as some of her others, but I still enjoyed it. The one aspect I can say she could have done without was Andrew's narrative from jail. I understand the need to convey what a deplorable situation he was in, but I found it hard to believe that a sixty-year-old man would willingly engage in crime so freely with his fellow prisoners, even being a party to their Crystal Meth smuggling schemes. I liked the change of scenery in this book. For once, Picoult takes the reader outside of New England into a somewhat mystical Southwest. The conclusion left a few mysteries, but led the reader to form their own conclusions in regard to the truth. This is a book that any Jodi fan will enjoy.

I tried and tried, but this book never interested me. It drags on and on. Once the indian woman gets involved with the story it just became ridiculous.

I finally gave up 200+ pages in....

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3GHI59KML9GOJ What a great book for summer reading!

I've been asked to wait and wait for this book to be delivered...a snail could have delivered it faster than this service.

I overall enjoyed reading this book. (Especially the ending) But I do think the story could have been shortened a bit. Sometimes I just didn't feel like reading it anymore. Then I would hit a really good part and want to keep reading it! Then I would hit a boring part, etc. But the beginning was good and the ending was good. If you are a big Frank Peretti fan, I recommend it. (even though its not his greatest)

I NEVER throw away books. This one, however, didn't make it to the bin soon enough. If I had wanted to read creationist mythology, that would have been one thing. However, I unsuspectingly bought the book thinking it was general horror/sf. Halfway into it, I tossed it, hoping the rubish collectors would arrive soon. The $5.99 i spent on it at the drug store (no lie) would have been more wisely used as... well, anything.

Very good story telling by Frank Peretti. I especially liked the idea of providing a map of the territory, where the story takes place, at the beginning of every chapter. There are a couple of clever twists in the plot that will give the "Ah!" feeling to the reader.

However, the plot itself is far-fetched. Evolution is an established school of thought and the extent to which the "evil" scientists go to prove this theory one more time, just in case, doesn't sound very credible.

There are holes in the evolution model. That's accepted even by the scientists. But thus far, it's still the best scientific model that explains life as we know it is. As far as I am concerned, this book hasn't changed my opinion on that count.

First off, I am a big Peretti fan, unfortunately Monster was not his best effort. At times we had an occasional glimpse of the great Peretti writing we love but for the most part the story line was just barely ok. I would have quit the book had it been anybody but Peretti, I kept thinking it's got to get better. This is the first time in a Peretti novel that I was able to guess the outcome about half way through the book and get it right!

I had a hard time putting this action packed thriller down. Character development worked well. I'm not sure males are supposed to identify with female characters but I certainly could identify with Reed's wife, Beck.

Is a very helpful way to deal with "ADD". I agree with the author that there are several ways for us to learn and experiment our world.

After being told by my son's second grade teacher that she thought my son had ADD, my husband and I took him to three different professionals. The first two wanted to medicate him. The third tested him and gave us this book to read. It turned out that our son had many allergies to both foods and environmental items. He also was above average intelligence and was bored with his classwork. We bought a computer and got him learning software. We also signed him up for piano lessons and had him read many books. We took care of his allergies through diet and shots. He is now a high school sophomore who is in all honors classes. He is planning on going to school to become a surgeon. Please take the time to investigate all your options before going straight to the Ritalin. Some children will still need the medication but use that as your last resort. Another good book to read is "Is This Your Child?" by Dr. Doris Rapp. She discusses the allergy aspect to behavior problems.

I'm amazed at the negative reviews on this book. Apparently when a psychologist has the gall to suggest we should stop drugging our children, it causes an uproar.

Whether you chose to medicate your ADHD child or not, there is a wealth of information here. And it goes beyond the obvious of "limit TV." The 50 suggestions are a quick read, and they not only introduce things that might work, they explain WHY they work.

I especially liked his discussions on why ADHD kids are so kinetic and how they are haptic (hands-on) learners. Also, he explains why ADHD kids benefit from full inclusion in a regular classroom. And he introduced a concept I hadn't considered before, that ADHD kids might not get distracted from overstimulation, but from understimulation (i.e. they act out from boredom).

It's obvious Armstrong has learned a lot from his years of working with these kids. Reading this book and trying his suggestions has made us a beneficiary of that knowledge.

I've read many books on this subject, and I consider this to be one of the most useful. I recommend it to any parent raising a child with an ADHD/ADD diagnosis...whether or not your child is on meds.

If you suspect you or your child has ADHD ("A.D.D." is not the correct acronym), please look elsewhere for treatment and practical strategies. Any ADHD intervention book worth its salt includes a variety of approaches to treatment. If you want to avoid medication, there are plenty of options - this book is nothing novel. However, medication does work best for many children and adults and the benefits definitely outweigh the "costs" (which are relatively minor - these medications are considered quite safe). Stimulant medications do not "change" children's personalities or "break" their spirits - they help them improve their ability to function academically, emotionally, and socially. Why wouldn't you want these things for your child? Please talk to a physician or psychologist and ask for book recommendations. This book is a waste of time!

There's a reason why I gave this book 3 stars, and it's because there are indeed other problems that share SOME of the symptoms of ADHD. And it's absolutely true that if you take Adderall, for instance, and you don't truly have ADHD, you can get into trouble you may never be able to get out of again. It's not necessarily a bad idea to read books like this. BUT... and it's a big but...

All you have to do is take ONE dose of a psychostimulant, and you will KNOW if you really have ADHD or not!! This isn't rocket science. It's EASY if you know what you're looking for. Let's look at Adderall, for instance. Virtually everyone who takes it will feel good. That's not what you're trying to figure out. You will feel only one of two possible ways. Either you'll be speedy high, rather manic, and unable to sleep for three days... and that's the NORMAL reaction... or you'll be relaxed, calm, and thinking seriously about a nice nap. (That was me.) This is how you know!! These meds are indeed addictive and dangerous for people with normal brains, but they are very safe for us ADHD folks. They've been around for one hundred and twenty years. They're not "new" or "untested" or "controversial." As a matter of fact, they are the only psychiatric medication that originally came from traditional Chinese medicine, which has been around for more like five thousand years. (Amphetamines were synthesized from ephedra.)

In addiion, the AMA and APA and all medical or psychiatric associations of EVERY kind accept the ADHD diagnosis. The basic ingredient in Adderall has been prescribed for seventy years, and the ingredients in Ritalin for thirty. There's a lot that still isn't known about ADHD; I, for one, think it is a much more comprehensive disorder of personality that anyone realizes, especially in adults. But saying ADHD doesn't exist is in the same category as young-earth creationism. No thinking person has any obligation to respect that kind of assertion.

To sum up, correct diagnosis and medication saved my mind, my sanity, and my life.I have tried every natural remedy, elimination diet, supplement, herb, fast, cleansing regimen, therapy, and exercise there is to help ADHD. Many of them help. They really do. But they work as SUPPORTS to the right medication. I would REALLY like to see this author live with my ADHD without it. I guarantee that he would get off the high horse VERY fast. So apart from the fact that yes, you really do have to be sure you or your child have/has ADHD before you take the meds, this book deserves a rating more like a hundred negative stars.

Chinese Americans M.J., Alex and Lin are best friends and have been so since they met as children. Each encourages the others to seek their dreams. Thus M.J. is a sportswriter hoping to make TV broadcasting; Alex has become a successful lawyer; and Lin has succeeded as an investment banker.

Each of their parents is concerned with the Americanization of their offspring, as the only acceptable roles for an Asian female are wife and mother. However the three musketeers want more from their lives and plan to prove to their respective families that Asian women at least in the United States can be all they want to be.

The American assimilation that divides the third generation from especially the first (the second is caught in a tug of war) is aptly described in CHINA DOLLS. Readers will see the Grand Canyon in beliefs as the acceptable Chinese norm (brought from the old country) clashes with the desires of women to be all that you can be in a society that encourages much more flexibility. Although none of the three young professionals are fully developed, the clashing lifestyles make for an interesting tale as each ahs to decide between gratifying their family by staying inside the narrow cultural restraints or satisfying themselves by taking advantage of the wider opportunities America offers.

I just read the new novel China Dolls . . . .
On the surface, I really liked it. Well written, very funny, Fast fun read. Upon further reflection, I found it to be one of the most racially stereotyped and demeaning books I have read of late.
Yu and Kan do the exact opposite of what Alisa does in her books. Alisa presents a broad spectrum of different types of Latino people, with positive and negative qualities. With regards to the men in Dirty Girls, we have a Cuban Jew wife beater, a Mexican philanderer, a Puerto Rican nice guy, an idiot white guy, and an Aztec with a superiority complex. I am not suggesting that Yu and Kan represent other Asian groups, but all of their Asian American male characters are shown as weak, dorky, effeminate, or controlling.
The characters call the Asian men names like "Asian Warrior Man." p 136
p 129 "Haven't you ever gone out with an Asian guy before? "Oh yeah, in college, Mike Tang. He was a nice guy. He told me he loved me five minutes after we sat down for dinner."
All the white guys are described as tan, gorgeous perfect bodies. When any of them make rude degrading comments, their actions are excused but when the Asian male characters say something offensive, they are lambasted for being "traditional male chauvinist pigs."
I just find it so sad that it is bad enough that white media desexualizes Asian American men, but that Asian female writers do it as well. In the history of primetime television, there has only been one Asian man that has kissed a woman (Jin and Sun from Lost) That was the main reason that I created the Tim Lee character in my book was to show a gorgeous Asian man that all the girls are in love with.
I have been reading everything in the chick lit genre I can get my hands on while I revise my book because I am learning so much by reading. In China Dolls, I found that I couldn't distinguish at all between the three characters and they all seemed to have the same voice, so I am really trying to make all my characters distinct.

This novel attracted my attention for a number of reasons. First, it is a novel about young, Asian-American women trying to be successful in challenging careers in New York City. (In this case, sports reporter, attorney and stockbroker.) My wife is a young, Asian-American woman trying to build a successful career as an accountant in New York City. In a closely related second, this novel shows relationships between these Asian-American women and non-Asian men which also strikes close to home for me. Finally, China Dolls is a first novel and I always make an effort to read first novels that seem interesting in a long-standing attempt to support new writers.

So, given all that, how did I like this novel? To be frank, I have to say it is only "so-so."

But I should be fair. Even with my connections to the themes of this novel, perhaps I am not the right audience and my judgement is therefore somewhat suspect. Perhaps it would resonate more with women and, more precisely, Asian-American women. Still, whatever its audience, there are some weaknesses here.

Most importantly, it is not particularly well written. The prose is pretty flat and cliche-ridden. There are no real surprises to the plot and the concept of fate that often resonates in novels by Asian writers is watered down to the point of tastelessness. I also felt their portrayal of many of the Asian characters (mothers, fathers, grandparents) was surprisingly stereotypical. I am basing this on my encounters with my wife's family which made these characters ring untrue for me.

The three lead characters did offer some depth and insight, most likely because they are based on the experience of our two authors (a sports reporter and an attorney) but it wasn't enough to really carry me through the novel. What this bodes for their next novel (which the dust jacket says they are "hard at work on"), I don't know.

"China Dolls" is racist and sexist. The vast majority of male characters of all ethnicities are portrayed as chauvinist cavemen. This is especially true of all of the Asian American characters.

The female protagonists accept the glaring faults of the white men they encounter, such as Josh's arrogance and obvious Asian fetish, and Drew's blatant racism and sexism. The Asian male characters are harshly criticized and are not allowed second chances.

The female characters lament how being Asian American makes them feel marginalized in their careers and unhappy with their bodies. I don't understand how I am supposed to feel any sympathy for them since they themselves have such low regard for Asian men.

Toward the end of the novel, Lin realizes that she has unfairly judged her Asian ex-boyfriend Stephen. But this leads nowhere, and I get the impression that she would rather just wait for a nonracist white man.

I also found it interesting that the Asian mothers in the book are by far more domineering and controlling than the Asian fathers, which goes against the stereotype that Asian men are too controlling to be good romantic partners.

I actually emailed the authors and they responded that the "book is more about the women than the men." Apparently, they think that they are not responsible for their minor characters. I think that the authors just are not good writers and are simply benefiting from the public's interest in Asian women's stories.

I would love to say that this novel represents a very biased Asian American female perspective, but unfortunately, I suspect that many Asian American women feel exactly the same way as the authors.

While I found that this book was a decent read in one afternoon, it's particularly disturbing for the authors to try to break stereotypes of Asian women by unnecessarily reinforcing stereotypes of Asian men.

Halfway through the book, all the Asian men in the book seem to exploited by turning them into stereotypical caricatures and using them as a catalyst to push the development of the female protagonists. In order to break from stereotypes as young Asian women, they projected an image of the stereotypical Asian male and culture.

It's truly tragic when in order for Asian women to move up in society, they have to push Asian men down.
