      abstract = {The focus of this book is on the experiences of  government-sponsored refugees in the early stages of  integrating into Canadian society. Combining data gleaned  from a longitudinal study of relatively recently arrived  refugees in Calgary, Canada, with a close focus on the case  of a physician from Colombia and his family, this volume  illustrates how the cultural and social capital of refugees  is marginalized and, in some cases, erased by the  undervaluing of their education, training, credentials, and  other knowledge. The findings presented in the book  underscore the importance of addressing the challenge of  integrating highly trained professionals into the  professions for which they are credentialed. Thomas Ricento  is Professor and Research Chair Emeritus in Education at  the University of Calgary, Canada.},
