Li (Asian Pacific American Studies Program and School of Geographical Sciences, Arizona State U.) offers a new framework for analyzing racial and ethnic settlement patterns in the United States and Canada. She defines ethnoburbs as clusters of multiethnic and multicultural suburban residential areas and business districts in large metropolitan areas characterized by significant concentrations of one ethnic minority. The author bases her observations and conclusions on the transformation of settlement patterns in the Los Angeles Chinese American community, and on the changes that have converted the San Gabriel Valley into ethnoburbs over the past half century. The book's empirical and theoretical studies will interest geographers and others interested in the continuing development of urban and suburban areas.
