<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The definitive works of the professor and scholar, Donda West, are included in Donda's Rules. Chapters include her systems theory on composition and rhetoric, a resolution on ebonics, a community-based economic development plan, and her studies on Alexander Pushkin. West implemented a system of teaching composition, created a philosophy as a theoretical base for teaching, and she presents research theories on writing. The book highlights her scholarly genius, besides being the mother of Kanye West. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><strong>"Donda was beautiful.

Her words were written with power and this book proves it." -- Dr. Mahalia Ann Hines, President - COMMON Ground Foundation, Mother of actor and recording artist, Common</strong></p><p><strong>"She was an unsung participant and heroine in the Chicago Black arts movement. As a literary scholar, writer, and advocate, Donda's work and achievements will echo forever." -- Dr. Conrad Worrill, Professor, Northeastern Illinois University</strong></p><p><strong>"Donda and I were kindred spirits as English professors and as sisters in the network of hip-hop mothers.

Greene - Professor and Chair, Medgar Evers College - Center for Black Literature, Mother of recording artist, Talib Kweli</strong></p><p><strong>"Donda was a deep thinker -- witty, sensitive, creative, and gentle.
