Immigration policy is hard, involving difficult decisions and trade-offs. But, as Alan Manning makes clear, this doesn't mean that we can't do better.
'Why Immigration Policy Is Hard' is an indispensable resource for informed debate on one of the most charged subjects in public life.

People need to read [Manning's] work before immigration tears us apart.

Fantastic, accessible & wittily written... It has challenged, sharpened & changed my thinking.

How did Canada come to exist and how has it remained sovereign despite repeated overtures, some nicer than others, from the south? I'm delighted to say the great Robert Bothwell is writing a book for Polity on the subject. Due to be completed in the spring.
