[Praise for the first edition] In this large-scale, comprehensive, and extended time study of Iranian immigrants in Texas, author Mohsen Mobasher used political history between the two countries; four years of participant-observation from 1993 to 1995 and from 2003 to 2005 in Houston, Dallas, and Austin; surveys; open-ended interviews; census materials; printed materials; and information about various Iranian organizations and groups. . . .Throughout the text, the author intersperses statistics with informant quotes and individual life stories. * American Anthropologist *
This new edition will serve as a rich source of data on the Iranian American community which could be used by sociologists, cultural historians, and the ever-increasing number of scholars working on Iranian diaspora today. -- Nasrin Rahimieh, author of Iranian Culture: Representation and Identity
