Fifty-two percent of Chinese Americans report having no religious affiliation, making them the least religiously-identified ethnic group in the United States. But that statistic obscures a much more complex reality. Family Sacrifices reveals that Chinese Americans employ familism, not religion, as the primary narrative by which they find meaning, identity, and belonging. This is a book on Chinese American religious life that we have been waiting for. It addresses longstanding sociological puzzles about the apparent lack of religious life of Chinese Americans, and it takes on the complex moral and religious discourses and practices of the so-called hyphenated Americans, for whom their immigrant heritage is still an essential part of life. What this nuanced ethnographic account shows is that the case of Chinese Americans is both particular and universal, and the superb analysis illustrates the often-hidden habits of the heart of Chinese American life.
