While the hard work of Asian migrants has been praised, their achievements have ignited fierce debates. What is missing in these debates is an understanding of what drives Asian migrant parents' approaches to education. This book explores how aspirations for their children's future reinforce anxieties about being newcomers in an unequal society.
