Understanding Immigration Law

9781422411797 (Pub 3240) The editors of this blog are pleased to announce the publication of Understanding Immigration Law (LEXISNEXIS 2009), a basic primer on immigration law.

Understanding Immigration Law, a new immigration law textbook authored by Dean Kevin R. Johnson (UC Davis),  Bill Ong Hing (UC Davis), Raquel E. Aldana (Pacific McGeorge), Leticia Saucedo (UNLV), and Enid Trucios-Haynes (University of Louisville) has been being published by Lexis Nexis Law School Publishing. The book is a comprehensive overview of U.S. immigration law designed to supplement the most widely adopted immigration law casebooks. It offers background about the history and foundations of U.S. immigration law, identifies factors that have historically fueled migration to the United States, summarizes the law concerning the admissions and removal procedures and criteria in the Immigration and Nationality Act, and ends with a chapter speculating about the future of U.S. immigration law. Earlier this summer, the book was shipped to law faculty around the country and is now available for order.
