"In this captivating book, Leslie Wang uncovers not only why children of migrants return to their ancestral lands and their surprising experiences abroad, but she also signals its implications for our global economy and international relations. Wang has shown migration studies a new direction to follow."
~Pawan Dhingra, author of Managing Multicultural Lives: Asian American Profesionals and the Challenge of Multiple Identities
"Leslie Wang’s skillful ethnography elucidates how Chinese Americans in China employ 'strategic in-betweenness' to maximize benefits in both their work and personal lives, resulting in a rich study that examines Chinese American racial, ethnic, and cultural belonging in a transnational context.”
~Andrea Louie, author of Chineseness across Borders: Renegotiating Chinese Identities in China and the United States
"The book has documented a special group of highly educated migrants in a global context. It will be a great reference book for researchers who are interested in Asian American studies, highly skilled immigrants, or international migration research. It could also be leisure reading for nonacademics because this is a vividly written book without much academic jargon. Americans who would like to pursue careers in Asia (especially in China) could also benefit from learning about the Asian American’s life in China."
