Asian Americans

"Chapters of this book focus on issues, needs, and assets of underserved, underresearched Asian Americans populations-refugees, Vietnam veterns, battered women, immigrant elders, Asian Americans with disabilities, Cambodian and Vietnamese youth, gays and lesbians, and Chinatown residents. Contributors to this book critically analyze the interplay of culture, immigration, and social and political contexts in relation to the vulnerability of Asian Americans. From the preface.
