Psychological Perspectives on Chinese American History

John Jung was born in 1937 in Macon, Georgia, where his parents, the only Chinese in town, lived above their Sam Lee Laundry.

"When You Drink Water, Remember The Source"
Yin & Yang Press books blend history and psychology to examine lives of Chinese immigrants from Guangdong who were self-employed in businesses such as laundries, groceries, and restaurants from the late 1800s until past the middle of the last century.
Their struggles against substantial obstacles and how they dealt with them are inspiring and must be recognized, admired, and recorded because they paved the way for later generations of Chinese to have a better life.
