Acculturation

This book explores the way in which immigrant adolescents carry out their lives at the intersection of two cultures (those of their heritage group and the national society), and how well these youth are adapting to their intercultural experience, in both their personal well-being and their school and community adjustment. People in all societies experiencing immigration will find the book informative.
