Description
This timely book shows that a series of arbitrary misperceptions and inappropriate assumptions in American culture generate racism, the enormous gap between rich and poor, and a host of other social problems. Americans are not taught the real meaning of "freedom, " "property, " "efficiency, " "progress, " and "law." We fail to understand that other people's goals, values, and workstyles can be different from ours without being wrong, or that terms as basic as "father" or "family" may mean very different thi (all equally correct) to different people even within the United States.
