Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother
About This Book
Growing up with Chinese immigrant parents, Amy Chua experienced firsthand what it meant to have success demanded rather than self-esteem nurtured. Published in 2011, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother chronicles how she applied these traditional Chinese principles to raising her own American-born daughters. The book presents both a thought-provoking examination of contrasting parenting philosophies and an intimate personal account of one mother's unapologetically demanding approach to child-rearing.
