Introduction :This book depicts the real life stories of Asian Americans immigrants, the reasons they come to America and what it means to be Asian in American today. The author, Joann Lee elicits the thoughts of people around the world (including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Asian Indian, Pacific Island, and Southeast Asian immigrants) as they reflect on how they see themselves, how they feel they are seen by the larger society and how they want to be seen. The content of this book is well organised into three main categories: (1) Living in america; (2) aspects of Americanization; and (3) Reflections on Interracial marriage. It is a good reference to scholars of Asian American studies.
