'The relationship between immigrants and health has become a "hot"topic. This book is therefore exceedingly timely and valuable in its comparative approach, exploring how migrants in three different host societies - Canada, Germany, and Italy - access health care resources as well as how the health care system responds to increasing population diversity. These authors clearly demonstrate that locality matters ... Read moreand that structure and agency must both be considered in the analysis of the migrant experience.' Caroline B. Brettell, Southern Methodist University, USA 'A book on diversity and its management in health care is long overdue. Our routine health services must improve their ability to cater fairly and equally for all members of society, including migrants...a timely contribution to this important debate.' Oliver Razum, Bielefeld University, Germany 'Health care has become the ground on which political and moral claims about human rights and cultural diversity are put to the test. The merit of this book is to demonstrate empirically how migrant groups in Canada, Germany and Italy are mobilizing strategies and resources in their mostly urban-based struggles for social inclusion and well-being in an increasingly interconnected yet disparate world.'
