New book on Immigration


I'd like to take this opportunity to let you know that my book, Immigrant, Inc. ---- Why Immigrant Entrepreneurs Are Driving the New Economy (and how they will save the American worker) (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., November, 2009) is now out in the bookstores and available on Amazon and other bookseller websites.

This book of inspiring business success stories, interwoven with powerful research (much of it yours!), explores the culture I call "Immigrant, Inc." ----- a culture of entrepreneurship, education, family and thrift. My co-author, veteran journalist Robert Smith, and I call upon America to embrace these job-creators and to "think like an immigrant." Much to our friend Lou Dobbs' chagrin, Immigrant, Inc. will forever change the way many Americans look at immigrants.....and America. .

As the country searches for effective, cost-efficient ways to jumpstart the economy ----- the book argues that high-skill immigration reform offers a powerful way to quickly spur a new generation of entrepreneurship and innovation in America. .

While the technology, jobs, and urban revitalization that immigrants spur are important, perhaps the biggest contribution that immigrant entrepreneurs bring to the table is the compelling reminder to everyone that the American Dream still exists. Through old-fashioned storytelling, Immigrant, Inc. uncovers the success traits of these New Economy immigrants ---- suggesting that Americans reconnect to these same values that our great-grandparents brought to these shores not long ago. .
