By 1988 she was living at home but was brain dead after a tragic cycle of misunderstanding, overmedication, and culture clash: 'What the doctors viewed as clinical efficiency the Hmong viewed as frosty arrogance.' Rating:  - Beautiful words written from deep wells of wisdomi love this book! I think it should be required reading for all high school students, in this ever changing world, the more we are aware of cultural differences and what that can actually mean, the better off we will all be. Rating: - ExcellentThe book was in excellent condition and it was shipped before the estimated delivery date Rating: - Fabulous!This is one of the best books I've ever read, and I'm so glad I read it. The topic of the book didn't actually seem that appealing, but within paragraphs I was hooked. Believe it or not, it is actually a book that is difficult to put down. It was fascinating, thought-provoking, educational, and amazing. I highly recommend it. You'll pass it on to your friends.
