"Fisher explores the process of migration chronologically and at levels varying from the migration of an individual community, to larger patterns of the collective movements of major ethnic groups, to the more abstract study of emigration, migration, and immigration. By highlighting an exemplary migration for each of the six chapters, the volume considers how technology, environment, and politics have shaped the diverse history of human migration"-- Provided by publisher.
