Book Description

Learning about Immigration Law, third edition, is the most up-to-date immigration law book available and takes into account all of the changes made in immigration law since September 11, 2001. The text offers real-life examples that make the material come alive for the student and walks the student through the entire background, process, and tools essential for a legal professionals mastery of immigration law. The text is designed for everyone from experienced legal professionals to those who have no formal knowledge of the law. This book also shows the average consumer how to help a friend, neighbor, or family member with immigration law questions or concerns. It assumes no previous knowledge and works as an instructional manual discussing immigration law. There is an Appendix A that provides American Citizenship Preparation guidelines with practice questions and an Appendix B that includes the most common forms used in immigration matters. The text also discusses new procedural and substantive laws with detailed explanations about why these laws were created in the aftermath of 9/11. The text takes a complex subject and breaks it down into simple terms. It makes the immigration law experience up-to-date, complete, and enjoyable.

"Best draft I have read in terms of readability, organization, and appropriateness for my students...the reading level is engaging, a good way of explaining the "whys" of immigration law and practice." - Colleen Reid, Lansing Community College

1.0 out of 5 stars it let me down., April 3, 2010
good and bad. good because it was consistent. bad because it consistently let me down. the best word to describe the book is "perfunctory". when ever i tried to learn about something that i consider "basic" i often resorted to google since the book gave no mention of it!(e.g. what are the travel restrictions on green card holders? google then taught me a green card holder cannot be abroad for over six months...that's IMPORTANT! how does a u.s. resident qualify to become naturalized? NOTHING MENTIONED! who are the different government agencies/players that are involved in the immigration process and what are their role? THAT'S BASICS!).

if anyone is interested and willing to pay for shipping and handling you can have my book for free. (seriously).

WARNING: i am planning to pursue a CAREER in immigration so it's possible that my standards are just unreasonably high.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book On Immigration Law, December 20, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Other reviews written on this book were right on. The author is very good at breaking down the law of immigration so that even the lay person can understand it. The review questions provided in the material have practical application which actually helps you remember the law in this area.
