Rita J. Simon is Professor in the Department of Justice, Law and Society at the American University. Howard Altstein is former Dean of the School of Social Work at the University of Maryland. Marygold S. Melli is the Voss-Bascom Professor of Law at the University of Wisconsin School of Law.
Rita Simon and her collaborators have been the leading empirical investigators of transracial adoption over the past quarter century.

...a smashing argument in favor of adoption across races.
— Randall Kennedy, Harvard Law School; The American Experiment
The empirical research is a wonderful addition to help us move beyond the impasse it seems we have reached...I recommend this book as an addition to classroom texts addressing race and/or the family.
