Pyong Gap Min teaches in the Department of Sociology at Queens College, and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.

Current migration to the United States naturally awakens comparative interest in America's last mass migration, the New Immigration of 1880-1924. Professor Min's Mass Migration to the United States now makes available an outstanding and unique collection of specialized articles each of which deals directly with a different aspect of this essential comparison. The results are sometimes surprising, and will require people to rethink simplistic historical analogies. This volume should be essential reading for anyone who wants to understand migration in American life.
