1st edition - We all harbor unconscious assumptions that can get in the way of our good intentions and keep us from building authentic relationships with people different from ourselves.

By becoming more self-aware, we can control knee-jerk reactions, conquer fears of the unknown and prevail over closed-mindedness.
