Synopsis
This in-depth historical analysis highlights the enormous contributions of Chinese Americans to the professions, politics, and popular culture of America, from the 19th century through the present day., While the number of Chinese Americans has grown very rapidly in the last decade, this group has long thrived in the United States in spite of racism, discrimination, and segregation. This comprehensive volume takes a global view of the Chinese experience in the Americas. While the focus is on Chinese Americans in the United States, author Jonathan H. X. Lee also explores the experiences of Chinese immigrants in Canada, Mexico, and South America. He considers why the Chinese chose to leave their home country, where they settled, and how the distinctive Chinese American identity was formed. This volume is organized into four sections: historical overview; political and economic life; cultural and religious life; and literature, the arts, and popular culture. Detailed essays capture the essence of everyday life for this immigrant group as they assimilated, established communities, and interacted with other ethnic groups. Alphabetically arranged entries describe the political, social, and religious institutions begun by Chinese Americans and explores their roles as business owners, activists, and philanthropic benefactors for their communities., This in-depth historical analysis highlights the enormous contributions of Chinese Americans to the professions, politics, and popular culture of America, from the 19th century through the present day.

Shipping time was well within the time estimated in the order confirmation, and the item arrived properly packaged along with the other two books ordered. The communication about the shipment was excellent through eBay and the postal services involved. The items are all in the condition described. I also thought the costs of shipping are very reasonable. Glad to contribute to the SFPL's goals. Thanks from a happy customer!
- 3***k (704)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoPurchasing from FSFPL (Friends of the San Francisco Public Library) is a true pleasure. Too often, books purchased from other used book sellers on eBay get tossed into bubble or poly mailers, making it questionable if you even receive your entire order, or if a book has ripped open the package and gotten lost in transit, or receiving books damaged in transit - even the wrong book altogether. When ordering from FSFPL, I receive exactly what I purchased, in the exact condition described. Thank you
