The various essays provide some innovative exploration of the migration-health nexus. As such, the book promises to be inspirational for scholars of geography, public health and related fields. Graduate students who seek to get oriented in this truly complex field and to identify salient research questions will undoubtedly benefit from perusing the essays of this volume. -- Brigitte Waldorf, Regional Science Policy and Practice A timely contribution to the field of migration and health, and a valuable resource for researchers seeking to explore newer questions. The nine chapters in this book offer diverse perspectives on themes such as inequity and discrimination in access to healthcare, gender, cultural safety, food security, disability and climate change as experienced by immigrants from countries in the Global South. The authors challenge and demystify pre-existing frameworks on migrant health, seek to broaden the theoretical and methodological scope of the field and provide a research agenda for future work. -- Divya Ravindranath, Progress in Development Studies It is a valuable resource for those seeking to refine their research questions and as a means to draw parallels across work on migration and health. While focused on international migration, the questions and approaches outlined are relevant to research on internal migration, and there is significant space to better articulate the connections between internal migration, international migration, and health. -- Frances Darlington-Pollock, Geographical Research 'Bruce Newbold and Kathi Wilson are both health geographers with a strong legacy; this edited volume on which they have partnered is no exception. As they state in their opening chapter, the health of an immigrant is shaped by the immigration journey and the factors precipitating it (forced versus voluntary; economic, social, cultural, environmental push and pull factors). What Newbold and Wilson have done with this edited volume is bring the immigrant health literature into the 21st Century by bringing heretofore invisible issues to the forefront: gender; climate change; inequalities in the global south. Their section on future research directions takes us even further through suggestions for alternative theoretical and epistemological approaches to the growing issues of immigration and immigrant health.' --Susan J Elliot, University of Waterloo, Canada 'Tapping into the expertise from scholars in geography, international affairs, nursing, psychiatry, public health, social service and social work, A Research Agenda for Migration and Health fills a gap in migration studies by foregrounding climate change, gender/race and health, health status, health care, nutrition and their impacts.' --Wei Li, Arizona State University, US
