Book excerpt: "This is a book about patterned differences in American families--differences based on the national, cultural, religious, and racial identification and membership of groups of people who do not set the dominant style of life or control the privileges and power in any given society. These differences are embedded in what are generally known as "ethnic groups." Ethnicity is usually displayed in the values, attitudes, lifestyles, customs, rituals, and personality types of individuals who identify with particular ethnic groups."--Introduction.
