Summary
"[The authors] critically examine key sociological and interdisciplinary topics through the experiences of Asian Americans, including social hierarchies (of race, gender, and sexuality), work and class, education, family, culture, identity, media, pan-ethnicity, social movements, and politics. ... In addition, this text takes students beyond the boundaries of the United States to cultivate a comparative and global understanding of the Asian experience" -- p. [4] of cover.
