It really takes you out of yourself and gives you another viewpoint on the world. Each person and situation is unique but there are patterns and commonalities.

This 392 page book begins with an informative study for and against transracial adoption by Rita Simon (the first 27 pages) and the remaining pages consist of the transcribed interviews of 24 transracially adopted men and women.I am encouraged by the fact that the vast majority of TRAs are grateful for their adopted caucasian parents and the positive influence they made on their lives.

I think anyone who has adopted transracially or is considering it should read this book. Very eye opening.
