This case study reveals the role of religion in the lives of Chinese Christians in the U.S. ... Christianity is the most practiced religion among the Chinese in America --- this book explores the subject from the inside, revealing how Chinese people construct and reconstruct their identities
"Yang's contribution documents how Christianity in general and Chinese churches in particular have integrally influenced the identity formation of Chinese immigrants. Furthermore, Yang's book suggests that Chinese evangelical Christians (as well as other recent immigrants) are the ones responsible for sustaining America's religiosity. Scholars interested in tapping into this religious pulse will find Yang's book not just useful but indispensable.
Yang's Chinese Christians in America marks an important break from traditional congregational studies of Christian churches in America. He explores how religion influences and shaped the multiple identities of Chinese immigrants." … religion/sociology May be re-issue.
