Now Thomas Sowell offers a sweeping historical and global look at a large number of migrations over a long period of time.'Migrations and Cultures:' shows the persistence of cultural traits, in particular racial and ethnic groups, and the role these groups' relocations play in redistributing skills, knowledge, and other forms of & human capital.& answers the question: What are the effects of disseminating the patterns of the particular set of skills, attitudes, and lifestyles each ethnic group has carried forth& both for the immigrants and for the host countries, in social as well as economic terms?
