Publisher's Note
One of the country's leading immigration economists presents a comprehensible and controversial account of the economic impact of recent immigration on America. 23 tables. 40 line illustrations.

Widely regarded as the country's leading immigration economist, Borjas presents the most comprehensive, accessible, and up-to-date account yet of the economic impact of recent immigration on America. He reveals that the benefits of immigration have been greatly exaggerated and that, if we allow immigration to continue unabated and unmodified, we are supporting an astonishing transfer of wealth from the poorest people in the country, who are disproportionately minorities, to the richest.

Industry Reviews
"Borjas is the leading American economist today writing about immigration policy. I do not share all of his views, but they have to be taken seriously by everyone in the field, and indeed his research has shaped the field more than that of any other writer."
Isbister

"...[A]n impressively researched and tightly argued polemic against America's liberal immigration policy..."
Nasar

"[A] thoughtful, sophisticated and richly informative book that merits close attention."
Times Literary Supplement (05/26/2000)

"[B]y far the best introduction I have seen to the economics of immigration."
New York Review of Books - Christopher Jencks (11/29/2001)
