Recensioner i media
Stacilee Ford's idea of gendered American exceptionalism is astute, provocative, and convincing. An American woman who has lived for years in Hong Kong, she possesses the rare sensibility to be at once critical and compassionate, as is evident throughout the book. -- King-Kok Cheung, University of California, Los Angeles
