Reviews for Contemporary Chinese America
"[S]cholars of contemporary Asian American life will find much of value in Zhou's study. Overall, it offers a fascinating portrait not only of a specific ethnic group but also of the changing meanings of immigration, integration, and acculturation in modern America." The Journal of American Ethnic History, Winter 2012
