The new
book on Y?, I Can't Believe You Asked That! (Perigee,
2004) offers compelling, real dialogue - from both everyday
people (our users!) and experts - on even the most sensitive
topics:
- What
do blind people "see" in their dreams?
- Why
do white people smell like wet dogs when they come out of
the rain?
- Why
do so many gay men love The Wizard of Oz?
- Do
Catholics consider a sin?
Politically
correct or not, these questions reflect natural, honest, human
curiosity about the lives and experiences of other people.
Nationally recognized diversity advocate Phillip J. Milano
uses these and a host of other questions from the hugely popular
Y? website to present an unflinching, occasionally bizarre
and sometimes hilarious look at the taboo topics so many people
wonder about - but usually don't dare ask.
 Phillip
Milano is the Director and Editor-in-Chief of Y? The National
Forum on People's Differences, and founder of the National
Diversity Newspaper Job Bank, the nation's premier recruiting
site for minorities and women. He is the former chairman of
the Recruitment and Youth Development Committee of The Newspaper
Association of America's Diversity Board, and a featured speaker
nationwide at diversity-related professional conferences and
seminars. He is an 18-year newspaper veteran and an editor
for The Florida Times-Union in Jacksonville.
Devour
I Can't Believe You Asked That! yourself, buy it for
a family member or friend, or use it in your classroom or
diversity seminar. It's sure to create a buzz - as well as
a lasting conversation.
