This important book complicates theories of migration and social networks for Mexican immigrants. [Flores-Yeffal] provides a valuble framework she refers to as the Migration Trust Network effect. Advanced students of migration will appreciate this nuanced analysis.Practitioners will find the policy recommendations offered in the concluding chapter particularly help. --G.L. Ochoa, Pomona College --G. L. Ochoa (11/21/2013)

This book addresses a timely and important aspect of international migration, namely the conditions that generate social support and assistance between migrants. It fits squarely within an important vein of sociological research on networks and solidarity, as well as immigrant adaption. --Emilio A. Parrado, Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania<br><br>
