From the Inside Flap
"The Sum of Our Parts is the first collection of essays on multiracial and multiethnic Asian Americans by experts in the field. The book is timely and will make an important contribution to the discourse on race, ethnicity, and identity formation. Comprehensive, historical, diasporic, and theoretically grounded, it includes groups not covered anywhere else, and will appeal to both academic and popular audiences."
—Judy Yung, University of California, Santa Cruz
"This book begins to remedy a crucial absence in contemporary liberatory discussion—Asian identities, and multiracial Asian identities. It should be an important and welcome contribution, academically and beyond."
—Naomi Zack, Professor of Philosophy, University at Albany, SUNY
