An anthology for freshman/ sophomore-level introductory Asian American Studies or Ethnic Studies courses taught in Sociology or Asian Studies programs.
Authoritative, current, and accessible—yet scholastically rigorous—this anthology of personal stories, timely essays, social science readings, and informative educational resources provides a social, economic, and cultural overview of Asian Americans, relates the experiences of Asian Americans, and explores a variety of contemporary social issues deeply affecting Asian Americans. Designed to encourage students to thinkcriticallyabout social issues facing Asian Americans, it implicitly advances a multi-cultural, comparative, interdisciplinary approach to viewing the Asian American experience, and exposes students to major theoretical perspectives as well as the latest statistical data on Asian Americans.
