Amy L. Chua the 48 year old Professor of Law at Yale Law School Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother (January 22 2011)

Amy L. Chua the 48 year old Professor of Law at Yale Law School specializing in the study of international business, ethics and globalization published her third book, a controversial memoir titled “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother”. Chua explains in the book her views on parenting from a Chinese perspective, being of ethnic Chinese descent having parents emigrated to the United States from the Philippines. Controversy over the book developed for the very strict child-rearing regime she claimed was typical of Chinese parents advocating the “superiority” of such an approach, listed a number of very strict rules she enforces on her two daughters. Chua’s husband is Jewish, and the two children are also raised Jewish, which adds another dimension to Chua’s claim of  parenting from a Chinese perspective.
