My Journey To Becoming Chinese American: A Memoir Of An Asian American Psychologist And His Search For Ethnic Identity

In his memoir, Dr. Shium Andrew Chen recounts the fascinating story of his youth in pre-Communist China, his emigration to the United States, his significant contributions to the field of psychology, and his years of community service and activism on behalf of Chinese Americans and other ethnic minority groups. He also addresses the difficulty Chinese Americans have identifying with and blending their Chinese and American identities, and asserts that finding a balance of both backgrounds and cultures leads to finding community and compassion. Through his narrative and the story of his life's work, Dr. Chen makes a compelling case for supporting, promoting, and embracing ethnic diversity as a tenet of American values.
