这本书挑战了西方对年轻亚洲女孩的误解和刻板印象，通过对亚洲女孩经历的分析，重新评估了学校教育在塑造她们身份方面所起的作用。它借鉴了对英国两个地区巴基斯坦、印度和孟加拉国血统的穆斯林、印度教和锡克教女学生的实证研究，以及她们处理上学经历的策略。它表明，他们远不是静态文化的被动受害者，而是积极参与创造和再创造身份，重新工作“家”的残余文化和他们现在居住的区域文化。作者旨在捕捉当代社会中亚洲女孩生活经历的复杂现实。她试图为教师提供另一种概念化亚洲女学生的方式，并建议教师如何利用他们的新认识来提高他们的专业实践和学生的学术成就。
Challenging western misconceptions and stereoptypes of young Asian girls, this book through the analysis of Asian girls experiences reassesses the role that schooling can play in shaping their identities. It draws on an empirical study with Muslim, Hindu and Sikh schoolgirls of Pakistani, Indian and Bangladeshi descent in two regions of England and the strategies they employ to deal with the experiences of schooling. It demonstrates that they are far from being passive victims of static cultures but are instead actively involved in creating and recreating identities that re-work both the residual cultures of the "home" and the regional cultures they now inhabit. The author aims to capture the complex reality of the lived experiences of Asian girls in contemporary society. She attempts to provide teachers with alternative ways of conceptualizing what it is to be an Asian schoolgirl and suggests how teachers cans use their new understanding to improve their professional practice and the academic attainment of their students.
