The Chinese diaspora has been created by diverse histories, traditions and experiences, which have been modified and enriched by transplantation to other continents and civilizations. The book is geographically and thematically organized into sections on origins, migration, institutions, ties to China and inter-ethnic relations, with country-by-country profiles of individual Chinese communites worldwide. It includes maps, graphs, figures and tables with archival and contemporary pictures and photographs.
