Summary
Immigration to the United States has reached historic numbers : 25 percent of children under the age of eighteen have an immigrant parent, and this number is projected to grow to one in three by 2050. Immigrant children and the children of immigrants face unique developmental challenges ... Transitions offers comprehensive coverage of the field's best scholarship on the development of immigrant children, providing an overview of what the field needs to know -- or at least systematically begin to ask -- about immigrant children and adolescents from a developmental perspective. --- From back cover
