Trade Review"This outstanding book on the migrations of Gujaratis from India to Africa, Europe, and America, opens a new window on the population movements currently crossing the globe. Reaching back into history and spanning the divides between the mass migrations of the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, Poros tells a compelling story, one that will interest established scholars and new students of migration alike." -- Roger Waldinger * University of California, Los Angeles *
"
Modern Migrations adds significantly to our understanding of immigration processes in general, and the Indian diaspora in particular. Illuminating existing links and flows in the U.S., the U.K., East Africa, and India, Poros uses the relational perspective very effectively and offers a clear, valuable look at migration today." -- Milton Vickerman * University of Virginia *
