The Tao of Life Stories explores curriculum as lifelong learning through Chinese women
immigrants' cross-cultural experiences. In answer to Walt Whitman's call for strangers to speak
this book creates an extraordinary voice through its stories poetry and artistry. The
multicultural and global context of the new millennium challenges teachers to better our
understanding of differences at personal professional and conceptual levels. Do we all
teachers and students alike bring unique experiences to our classrooms? How do we acknowledge
and learn from our experiences across cultural borders? Philosophically practically
vicariously and artistically this book promises to engage the reader in a postmodern
cross-cultural and global education.
