From CBS LA:
Yale University law professors and spouses Amy Chua and Jed Rubenfeld are generating a lot of buzz for writing a book that pinpoints traits they feel make certain ethnic groups more successful than others… After years of research and studies, the couple say they noticed the same trends nationwide so they focused on eight ethnic groups that showed measurable signs of upward mobility… UC Irvine sociology professor Jennifer Lee had one of her studies referenced in the book. She feels the book is anecdotal, rather than scientific, and doesn’t account for certain advantages, such as wealth and refugee status. “It’s certainly not social science,” Lee said. “The traits in themselves don’t explain group success. They’re taking traits out of context.”
