Editorial Reviews
Review
"In all important respects Legrain is right on target." -- The Guardian
"Mr. Legrain has assembled powerful evidence to undermine the economic arguments against immigration." -- The Economist
"The book is a superb combination of direct reportage with detailed analysis of the evidence." -- Martin Wolf, Financial Times
"Required reading for any individual who wishes to engage in informed discourse about human migration in the changing 21st-century world." -- Chuck Konkel, The Globe and Mail
Immigrants boldly challenges the conventional thinking at every turn. [Legrain] makes a powerful case that free movement of people is just as beneficial as the free movement of goods and capital. The book is carefully written; the argumentation is never slapdash stuff of the xenophobes. [A]n extraordinary book, making the best case I have ever read for an open-border policy.
(George C. Leef Regulation Magazine )
In all important respects Legrain is right on target…. In the context of the fearful chatter that surrounds the subject, sense as good as this needs cherishing.

Review
We expect crisp writing and careful analysis from Philippe Legrain. In Immigrants, he adds reporting from across the world and a passionate defense of our freedom to cross borders. By turns logical, daring, and compassionate, this is a terrific book.
(Tim Harford, author of "The Undercover Economist" )
