      title = {Immigration structures and immigrant lives : an  introduction to the US experience /},
      abstract = {Immigration Structures and Immigrant Lives provides a  concise, comprehensive, interdisciplinary introduction to  United States immigration and immigrants. The book is  presented in two parts. Part I addresses the history,  structure, dynamics, and politics of United States  immigration from colonial times to the present. Part II  focuses on the lives of immigrants with separate chapters  examining the immigrant struggle simply to live, the  challenges and opportunities of work in America, the  different beliefs and commitments that fortify immigrants  in their new lives, and the many different ways in which  immigrants come to belong in the United States. The  introduction and epilogue bracket the United States  experience within a broader consideration of human mobility  and current global migration trends and issues. Tables,  case examples, and a timeline help illuminate both the  general shape of immigration and the details of immigrant  life.},
