‘. . . the book is an important study on immigrants in Australia and Israel in the twentieth century, and has important implications for social policy formation, immigration policy, and the creation of a sense of nationhood in these two diverse countries, even as both of them signify the need for convergence and adoption of a humane approach to the sensitivities of migrant polulations. The book is thus a welcome addition to the existing literature on immigration, and would prove useful to researchers of social and political policies. The presentation, production and editing of the book are also of appreciable quality, and overall the book offers stimulating reading at an affordable price.’
