Asian Americans are the fastest growing minority population in the
country. Moreover, they provide a wonderful lens on the experiences
of immigrants and minorities in the United States more generally,
both historically and today. In this timely new text, Pawan Dhingra
and Robyn Magalit Rodriguez critically examine key sociological
topics through the experiences of Asian Americans, including social
hierarchies (of race, gender, and sexuality), work, education,
family, culture, identity, media, pan-ethnicity, social movements,
and politics. With vivid examples and lucid discussion of a broad
range of theories, the authors demonstrate the contributions of the
discipline of sociology to understanding Asian Americans, and vice
versa. In addition, this text takes students beyond the boundaries
of the United States to cultivate a comparative and global
understanding of the Asian experience, as it has become
increasingly transnational and diasporic. Bridging sociology and
the growing interdisciplinary field of Asian American studies, and
uniquely placing them in dialogue with one another, this engaging
text will be welcome in undergraduate and graduate sociology
courses such as race and ethnic relations, immigration, and social
stratification, as well as on ethnic studies courses more broadly.
