The next great migration

"[Shah] . . . upends our centuries-long assumptions about migration through science, history, and reporting--predicting its lifesaving power in the face of climate change [and argues that] . . . far from being a disruptive behavior to be quelled at any cost, migration is an ancient and lifesaving response to environmental change, a biological imperative as necessary as breathing. . . Migration is not the crisis--it is the solution. Conclusively tracking the history of misinformation from the 18th century through today's anti-immigration policies, [Shah] . . . makes the case for a future in which migration is not a source of fear, but of hope"--Provided by publisher.
