Notă biografică

Textul de pe ultima copertă

""The Hypersexuality of Race" promises to be an influential and perhaps notorious book. Refusing to shy away from the complexity of sexuality and its contradictory meanings, Celine Parrenas Shimizu does not distinguish between positive (or politically correct) and negative sex acts but rather situates Asian (American) women's expressions of sexuality in relation to racial formation, class consciousness, and other discourses of identity. She emphasizes context and contingency."--Peter X Feng, author of "Identities in Motion: Asian American Film and Video"
