Junior/Intermediate (Gr. 5-8) Canadian "(In) the Investigating Human Migration & Settlement series, this survey takes on a topic that may be too broad for one book: migration across the world... past and present, whether... caused by war (from ancient times to the 2 world wars to... Darfur), economics, or environmental disasters. On the other hand, the sweeping connections and contrasts... the book makes can stimulate debate. For example, slavery is not just a distant horror; it is... linked to child factory laborers in India and elsewhere today. The open design will grab browsers with color photos, maps, and boxed, personal "journey stories." Unfortunately, except for... 4 annotated Web sites... back matter includes no bibliographies or source notes, though there are excellent "Ideas for Discussion" that raise the big issues." - Booklist, Apr 1/10.
