Inhaltsangabe:
Iranian immigrants, new to the United States as a result of Iran's 1979 revolution, bring with them a belief in the importance of education. Second-generation Iranians reveal similar educational values to those their parents held in Iran. This study exemplifies one of the intangible facets of migration, the forces that transcend national boundaries and manifest in newly settled lands.
Shavarini also describes the immigrant experience of Iranians in general. Despite being depicted as terrorists, Iranians have been a relatively successful immigrant group. This book highlights the educational achievements of its second-generation while illuminating the internal diversity of Iranians, consisting of at least seven religious and ethnic groups.
