Recenzii
Crossing Borders: International Women Students in American Higher Education is a compelling example of qualitative research that illuminates a concept, transitions in the sense of self, and describes the experiences of a particular group. . . . While the voices of the interviewed women are compelling and interesting in their own right, the theoretical contribution of this book is in its argument that a critical and local interpretation of cultures and self is an important conceptual framework. . . . In addition to the theoretical contribution and illustration of meaningful cultural differences, Qin offers advice for both American hosts and Chinese students, bringing her conclusions to a practical level. For that reason, I recommend this book for people who work with international students.
Qin's study of Chinese women studying in universities in the United States is incredibly timely.. Crossing Borders makes an important contribution.. Qui has provided a springboard for continued dialogue and research.
By reading this book, university faculty who work with Chinese women international students will have a rare insight into these students' subjective experiences and gain a deeper understanding of their needs.. This book will likely inspire interest in further research in this area, and it is a timely contribution to the growing focus on examining the intersectionality of multiple identities.
