Requests:  0 Summary:  The news today is full of stories of dislocated people on the move. Wild species, too, are escaping warming seas and desiccated lands, creeping, swimming, and flying in a mass exodus from their past habitats. News media presents this scrambling of the planet's migration patterns as unprecedented. But the science and history of migration in animals, plants, and humans tell a different story. Far from being a disruptive behavior to be quelled at any cost, migration is an ancient and lifesaving response to environmental change, a biological imperative as necessary as breathing. Tracking the history of misinformation from the 18th century through today's anti-immigration policies, Shah makes the case for a future in which migration is not a source of fear, but of hope. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hanapepe Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Shah Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sc item being mended Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 304.809 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
