Reviews
"Sangaramoorthy offers a glimpse into how and under what conditions migrant workers from Latin America, the Caribbean, and other parts of North America seek, receive, and fashion care. This book provides new ways of reimagining much of the conventional thinking within medical anthropology about immigration and immigrant health."—Adia Benton, Northwestern University
"This is a deftly written book that skillfully brings together multiple strands of analysis through a clear, coherent, and well-theorized set of arguments. Drawing on a rich set of interdisciplinary scholarship, Sangaramoorthy complicates conventional ways of thinking about immigration and rural health in the US."—Jennifer Liu, University of Waterloo
