Mr. Daniels is the author of an essay in the new issue of The Chronicle that examines the field. "Only recently have historians begun to see Asian Americans as subjects, rather than objects, of history," he writes in the piece. The Chronicle invites members of this list to read the essay, to join the discussion with Mr. Daniels, and to submit questions or comments for him (advance questions are encouraged and may be posted now) at: http://chronicle.com/colloquylive/2001/12/asian/chat.php3 A transcript of the discussion will be posted at that address after the chat is over.
