Book Synopsis Paths to Success by : Charles C. Harrington
Book excerpt: Statisticians tell us that impoverished backgrounds are decent predictors of impoverished futures. This book seeks out the stories behind the exceptions. While the authors reveal consistencies between pathmakers' approaches and those of their middle-class counterparts, it also exposes striking differences between men and women, blacks and whites.
