Featuring contributed chapters from experts in the field, Handbook of Asian American Families provides readers with a developmental systems-based approach to understanding contemporary Asian American families. The book examines the intricacies of family relationships and dynamics within Asian American families and the structural factors that hinder or promote family functioning and the well-being of Asian immigrants and their descendants. The chapters present theoretical, conceptual, empirical, and practical discussion on the interworking of Asian American families with each focusing on key aspects of family relationships. Opening chapters introduce readers to the developmental systems-based perspective of the book, discuss the effects of immigration on Asian American families, and explore specific relationship dynamics, including motherhood, intimate relationships, coparenting, and multigenerational and intergenerational relationships. Readers learn about the dynamics of divorced families, stepfamilies, adoption, and multiracial families. Additional chapters cover the acculturation gap in Asian American families, mental health, racial-ethnic socialization, religion and interfaith relationships, and combating stereotypes, microagressions, racism, and the model minority myth. The closing chapter looks to the future, discussing opportunities for further research, theories, practices, and policies. Handbook of Asian American Families is part of the Cognella Series on Families and Social Justice, a collection of textbooks that support core curriculum within family-related disciplines with emphasis on issues related to social justice, diversity, and equity.
