Mapping the sociohistorical evolution of Asian Americans, this study delves into the influences and experiences of Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Korean, Indian, and Vietnamese communities. It outlines pivotal policies, cultural shifts, and events using clear learning objectives and curated bibliographies for academic insight.
Asian Americans and Asians in America explores the sociohistorical trajectories and overlapping lived experiences of Asians in the United States and Americans of Asian heritage. The book serves as an introduction to Asian American studies, meticulously documenting the ascension of the term "Asian American" and detailing the various groups that comprise approximately 85 percent of the Asian population in the country Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Korean, Indian, and Vietnamese Americans. Subsequent chapters individually unpack the distinct chronologies, policies, and social influences pertinent to each group.
The structure of the book is thoughtfully designed to facilitate academic instruction. It conveys significant terms, policies, and events, and includes learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter. The chapters are also supplemented by bibliographies aimed to assist those seeking in-depth exploration of primary sources.
Developed to help students better understand America's complex social fabric, Asian Americans and Asians in America is ideal for courses in sociology, history, and ethnic studies at the undergraduate level. While providing social and cultural exegesis through an Asian American lens, the book's utility extends to graduate students and scholars in search of comprehensive bibliographies for further study.

Henry Hyunsuk Kim, associate professor of sociology at Wheaton College, holds a M.A. and Ph.D. in sociology and an M.Div. and Ph.D. in theology. He has served as an English-ministry pastor at two different Korean-American churches for about 14 years and has taught courses at a public university, a seminary, for a parachurch organization, and a Christian liberal arts college. Dr. Kim's lifelong passion is to discover intersections between seemingly disparate fields such as sociology and theology via computational sociology and complexity science.
