Drawing upon wide-ranging case study material, the book explores
the ever-changing personal and cultural identity of Chinese
migrants and the diverse cosmopolitan communities they create. The
various models of newly-forged communities are examined with the
added dimension of personal identity and the individual's place in
society.
With particular emphasis on the changing face of Chinese
ethnicity in a range of established places of convergence, Chan
draws on extensive experience and knowledge in the field to bring
the reader a fresh, fascinating and ultimately very human analysis
of migration, culture, identity and the self.
