Most theological publications dealing with race and ethnicity divide between black and white or between American and non-American, in the process leaving out Asian American voices. This landmark volume seeks to remedy the situation. -- The Christian Century I highly recommend this text for scholars to engage new horizons of Christian ethics and to use for a wide variety of upper level undergraduate and graduate courses in Christian ethics as well as constructive and pastoral theology. -- Alex Mikulich -- Journal of the Society of Christian Ethics The book is groundbreaking and required reading for anyone researching or teaching Christian Ethics in the American context. -- James W. McCarty III -- Marginalia Review of Books
