SHERROW O. PINDER is an Assistant Professor of Political Science and Multicultural and Gender Studies, California State University, Chico, USA.

This is an interesting book on who is perceived to be an American. Pinder's systematic analysis and discussion of the racialization of all the hyphenated groups (i.e. Chinese-American, Native Americans, and African-Americans, etc.) is exciting. This book is a welcome and erudite contribution to the African studies field, political science, and women's studies, especially for classes on race and gender.'
