Review Quotes: The interdisciplinary and comparative nature of this collection, which includes submissions by economists, anthropologists and historians alike, emphasizes how important the 'longer view' is in the study of migration. . . . This collection takes an important step in viewing the various aspects of migration through time -- thus locating the important and complex processes involved in human migration in historical perspective.--Bethany Hicks "JOURNAL OF SOCIAL HISTORY, Summer 2009"
