Controversial "The Triple Package"

Recent issue of TIME has an article which categorically castigates the newly published book, "The Triple Package" written by the controversial Tiger Mom, Amy Chua. I personally disagree with Chua's sensational claim that the reason why groups of Asians, Indians, Jews, Cubans, Mormons, Iranians and Lebanese thrive is because of three traits: a superiority complex, insecurity and impulse control. No race is better or worse than the others. I personally gravitate toward one appealing factor that is supposed to predominantly determine the success of any race, i.e., the parents' human capital.
