Far from the Model Minority

" Far from the Model Minority is a beautifully written, empirically and theoretically rich book. Its portrait of an invisibilized group complicates our fundamental understanding of who Asian Americans are."--Stacey J. Lee, Vilas Research Professor and Frederick Erickson WARF Professor, University of Wisconsin-Madison "Jia-Lin Liu's compelling narrative illuminates an often-overlooked Chinese immigrant population in the US. What's particularly intriguing is her exploration of these immigrants' distinct perspectives on success, social mobility, and the imperative to 'gain and keep face' for the family."--Soo-Yeon Yoon, Associate Professor of Sociology, Sonoma State University
