"Brings together some of the most important scholarship in Asian
American Studies. Contemporary Asian America is a superbly
organized anthology, presenting topics ranging from immigration,
family, and community to activism, identity, sexuality, race
relations and transnationalism. The new research and updated
materials on previously understudied Asian ethnic groups are most
valuable. Anyone interested in the experiences of Asians in the
United States will find much here that is illuminating. The breadth
and depth of this volume makes it an excellent reader for
undergraduate and graduate level courses in Asian American
Studies."
*Xiaojian Zhao,University of California, Santa Barbara*
