This book examines the adaptation experiences of legal immigrants with undocumented spouses, considering the structural limitations that they face in their private, social, and professional lives, as well as in regard to their finances and health. The first study to systematically analyze the ways in which legal immigrants are affected by federal and state policies that target their undocumented spouses, it reveals that, regardless of their immigration status, all members of mixed-status families are directly or indirectly subjected to the same intrusive and punitive laws. Based on an autoethnographic approach, Everyday Fears of Legal Immigrants with Undocumented Spouses: Under U.S. Immigration Policy also draws on additional qualitative research as well empirical evidence from existing studies and the latest quantitative data from various governmental agencies and think tanks. It thus integrates multiple approaches to ways of knowing and understanding the experiences of legal immigrants in mixed-status families and will therefore appeal to social scientists with interests in migration.

Becoming Bikini Bodybuilders: Challenges and Rewards of Ordinary Women Stepping on Stage offers an insight into the bikini category of natural female bodybuilding by revealing benefits and challenges experienced by ordinary women who decide to become bikini bodybuilders. Nina Michalikova challenges prevailing misconceptions and shows that not all female athletes follow extreme training and dietary measures for prolonged periods of time to achieve their desired physique. By highlighting the positive aspects of bikini bodybuilding, this book breaks the stereotypes of a “typical bikini competitor” as a hyper-sexualized woman with underlying health issues. In addition to studying a little understood population of bikini athletes, the study uses an innovative methodology to examine the topic.
