“This book offers an in-depth overview of student mobility by focusing on less-discussed areas and making connections between neoliberalism, globalization, and education. ... The analysis in Student Mobilities, Migration and the Internationalization of Higher Education could certainly shed some light on the policy decision-making process in Canada.” (Jing Xiao, Canadian Journal of Higher Education, Vol. 45 (4), 2015)
