The Asian Mystique

Uncover the real Asia and Asian people beyond the exotic stereotypes we've created. The Asian Mystique delves into the origins of these misperceptions and examines the phenomenon of 'yellow fever.' Author Sheridan Prasso takes us on a reality tour of Asia's homes, campuses, business districts, and corridors of power, providing intimate profiles of women's lives and vivid portraits of the human side of an Asia we usually mythologize too well to really understand. This book is essential for anyone interested in or interacting with Asia and Asian-origin people.
