- catalog abstract ""With the liberalization of the U.S. immigration law of 1965, the number of Asian Americans in general - and several Asian ethnic groups in particular - has increased. Although this volume examines the Asian American community overall, chapter authors address the major Asian American groups: Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Indian, Korean, Vietnamese, Laotian, and Cambodian. Unique in its approach, Asian Americans takes a social-scientific look at the issues and obstacles of each group. Some of the issues explored are occupational and economic adjustment, assimilation and ethnicity, intermarriage, intergroup relations, demographic patterns, and marital and family adjustment. The chapters also discuss the impact of migration on traditional customs and values of Asian Americans as well as their impact on U.S. economy, politics, education, culture, and intergroup relations in cities."--Jacket.".
