商品簡介
Danico (behavioral studies, California Polytechnic State U., Pomona) and Ng (anthropology, California State U., Fresno) examine eight major issues that have been the focus of discussion among Asian Americans--the role of Asian American studies for both Asian American communities and American society, the "model minority" image, Asians in the U.S. as sojourners and settlers, the purpose and scope of Asian American literature, the opportunities and risks of transnationalism, the benefits and challenges of an Asian American panethnicity, stereotypes and their perpetuation through the media, and generational differences within the Asian American community. Academic but accessible to students, teachers, and general readers alike. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
