- Additional information
- This is the first book-length work in any language to analyse the cultural contribution of British Chinese to the UK cultural landscape. It contains 13 chapters that focus upon different disciplines, including art, photography, film, and theatre. The book emerged from a conference initiated by Thorpe at the University of Reading, who was then joined by Dr. Diana Yeh at his request as a collaborator. Thorpe was responsible for the strategic decision to intersperse academic essays with statements by practitioners, contributed 50% of the introduction (5000 of 10,000 words) and one chapter (10,000 words), and co-edited all other chapters.
