"A straightforward, useful guide to the two countries’ complex and sometimes surprising history of labor exchange." —Business Week

"Castańeda removes the shrillness from the immigration debate. His calming argument merits an audience, especially among the fence-builders in Congress." —Kirkus Reviews
