Reviews

This book is a dense read ... bringing up many important issues that need to be carefully considered and discussed among policymakers, research scientists, counselors, educators, and parents and, to her credit, children. ... she builds her argument thoughtfully and comprehensively using a variety of evidence-including historical, philosophical, literary, sociological, political, commercial, and psychological sources to support her thesis. (Juanita N. Baker and Carol E. Oseroff, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (8), February, 2017)
