Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
There are many books and periodicals that discuss how to meet the right person. Few, such as the magazine Chocolate Singles , focus on the issues of single African Americans. Walker, the founder of National Pairing Systems, uses the information from her seminars in this book for blacks hoping to start a relationship. The exercises at the end of each chapter reappear in the final sections on maintaining a relationship. Unfortunately, the rest of the book is filled with generalities and information that is easily found elsewhere. For example, Walker discusses racism and notes that it affects relationships. She does not clarify whether this racism is found in society as a whole, or within those people looking for mates. In addition, the index is weak and the bibliography, though useful, is dated with regard to articles on the U.S. dating scene. Not a strong candidate, but as there is a dearth of material on this subject for African Americans, this item may find a home in public libraries serving a large African American population.
