‘Controversies about international migration often center around fears and concerns that international migrants are not integrating at their destinations. The chapters in this volume review current literature about the concept of integration itself, the discrimination and prejudice that migrants sometimes confront, and migrants’ access to jobs, housing, health care, and social services. With current examples from Europe, Australia, and Canada, Newbold and his co-authors provide a welcome and up-to-date resource for migration researchers and students, policy analysts, and service providers who want to ensure that newcomers thrive not just survive.’
