xii + 115pp, paperback. "Lau's poetic memoir of his days as a produce worker in Seattle's Chinatown reveals a microcosm of grassroots, working-class Asian America - a world where customers, workers, and fruits and vegetables intersect in exchanges that crackle with energy and brim over with humor. What emerges is an acutely observed, nuanced critique of where Asian Americans - native-born, refugee, and migrant - are today." Publisher's description.

Davis, Rocío G. Begin here: reading Asian North American autobiographies of childhood. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 2007, xii, 234pp., very good dust-jacket, fresh attractive copy, very good red cloth. "An analytically innovative work, Begin Here widens the current critical focus of Asian North American literary studies by proposing an integrated thematic and narrato-logical approach to the practice of autobiography. It demonstrates how Asian North American memoirs of childhood challenge the construction and performative potential of national experiences."-- CONTENTS: To begin here -- The Asian childhood : writing beginnings -- Cultural revolutions and takeovers : war as structure -- The liminal childhood : biraciality as narrative position -- Citizens or denizens : inscribing the tropes of Asian North Americanization -- In North America : formulating experience -- The childhood for children : the cultural experience of the early reader -- Conclusion : rewriting the childhood.

For ordinary readers, it provides fresh and entertaining reading. For those who wish to learn about contemporary Chinese culture and history, it gives a tangible picture of the life of a unique Chinese national minority, and of how their culture is placed within the broader context of the mainstream Han culture." --China Review International, Fall 1995.

Trade paperback. A Latitude 20 Book. "Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop was the largest landowner and richest woman in the Hawaiian kingdom. Upon her death in 1884, she entrusted her property - known as Bishop Estate - to five trustees in order to create and maintain an institution that would benefit the children of Hawai'i: Kamehameha Schools. A century later, Bishop Estate controlled nearly one out of every nine acres in the state, a concentration of private land ownership rarely seen anywhere in the world. Then in August 1997 four revered kupuna (native Hawaiian elders) and a professor of trust-law publicly charged Bishop Estate trustees with gross incompetence and massive trust abuse. Entitled "Broken Trust," the statement provided devastating details of rigged appointments, violated trusts, cynical manipulation of the trust's beneficiaries, and the shameful involvement of many of Hawai`i's powerful." This book expands the story of the original article. Illustrated with photographs. Named Hawaii Book of the Year in 2007. Index. xi, 324 pp. Fine in glossy illustrated wrappers.

This book "focuses on the belief in modern Taiwan that an aborted fetus can return to haunt a family. Although the topic has been researched in Japan and commented on in the Taiwanese press, it has not been studied systematically in relation to Taiwan in either English or Chinese. This fascinating study looks at a range of topics pertaining to the belief in haunting fetuses, including abortion, sexuality, the changing nature of familial power structures, the economy, and traditional and modern views of the spirit world in Taiwan and in traditional Chinese thought."

"If only more anthropologists would write ethnographies as theoretically robust, empirically based, and thoughtful of their subject as this one. This book is a delight to read. It lays out a careful story of a people in the Philippine frontier who have been followed by the author for more than one generation . What the author gives us is an empirically-grounded, historically and ethnographically sensitive account of how change affects people at different scales of analysis that allows the behavior and choices that they have made to be appreciated and valued. A superlative study." --E.F. Moran, Indiana University.
