Book synopsis

This book provides a fascinating and important history of foreign students in American higher education. Lucas is a well-established Palgrave author with a good sales track who commands respect within academia. His first book with us, "American Higher Education: A History", has sold 8,126 copies with a second edition that published this year. New Faculty has sold 4,412 paperback copies as of 2006.Not since 1970 (Clarke and Ozawa, The Foreign Student in the United States) has there been a detailed treatment of this topic and sufficient time has elapsed to warrant a fresh, new analysis containing current, up-to-date information.Today more than 3,560 institutions of post-secondary learning in the US currently maintain staff to regulate foreign student admissions and enrollments, with approximately 8,900 field practitioners attending to the overseeing of these students.The book will have appeal to specialists in student services, and also to the thousands of faculty members responsible for teaching and mentoring foreign students.
