About the book
As globalization and terrorism intensify the pressure to close America's doors, this provocative book argues that to do so would be catastrophic. “America keeps getting immigration wrong because we only look at half of the story: we focus so hard on immigrants that we forget about our own role in shaping how people come here and how well they fit in…We exaggerate the differences between our immigrant ancestors and today’s immigrants because it is a convenient mask for our own failings.” – quotation from back cover.
First sentence: In April 2005, on one of the first spring days when it was warm enough to do so, Li Liu sat with me on the steps of the amphitheater at the foot of the Stata Center for Computer, Information, and Intelligence Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
