About the journal
Since 1971, the Press has published Amerasia Journal, the leading interdisciplinary journal in Asian American Studies. After more than three decades and over 16,000 pages, Amerasia Journal has played an indispensable role in establishing Asian American Studies as a viable and relevant field of scholarship, teaching, community service, and public discourse.
Amerasia Journal, according to founding publisher Don T. Nakanishi, "has benefited from and reflected a wide array of profound social changes that have occurred among Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders" be it their unprecedented growth and diversification, or their ever-increasing levels of access, representation, and achievement in American society's institutions and sectors that had long excluded, marginalized, or demonized them."
Instructions to Authors
Book Review Guidelines for Amerasia Journal
1) The review should be 800 to 1000 words in length. Please include word count at the top of the first page.
2) The review should be submitted in typewritten copy, double-spaced. You should submit your review via email
attachment. Please email Associate Editor, Brandy Worrall, brandy22@ucla.edu.
3) The heading for the review should follow the following format. Please note all the elements that are
needed for publication. 1) Title; 2) Author/s, editor/s; 3) City, State: Publisher's name, date of publication
(as shown on title or back of title page); 4) number of pages (last printed number page); 5) hardcover or
softcover and respective price. If you are working from a publisher's review copy, the publisher's letter
usually contains all of this information if you cannot find it on the book. For example:
Counterpoint: Perspectives on Asian America. Edited by Emma Gee. (Los Angeles: UCLA
Asian American Studies Center, 1976. 595 pp. hardcover, $19.95; softcover, $10.95).
4) Write your review with two goals in mind, namely to report basic information about the book and, more
importantly, to evaluate the book. Do not abstract the book, but be sure to indicate the range and nature of its
contents. The exact information will vary according to the kind of book, but in all cases it includes the book's
purpose or main theme, and the way in which the author(s) seeks to achieve the purpose or develop the
theme. Summarize the book's main conclusions but be brief. Place the book in the perspective of related
literature by comparing it with other books on similar topics.
5) Avoid quoting long passages from the book you are reviewing. Paraphrase when possible. Always give the
page number of the quote in parenthesis.
6) Because Amerasia Journal is an interdisciplinary publication, please avoid overly technical language
understandable to only a few specialists.
7) Avoid using references and footnotes. If a quotation from another work is absolutely necessary, please
incorporate the reference into the text. The form of the reference should be:
(Charles Wollenberg, All Deliberate Speed: Segregation and Exclusion in California Schools,
Berkeley: University of California Press, 1976).
8) We reserve the right to edit reviews for style, conciseness, and consistency.
9) We will send you a copy of the issue of Amerasia which contains your book review, along with three offprints.
Two copies of your book review will be sent to the publishers of the book. You are entitled to keep the
book which you review.
