Reviews
Grade 9 Up—This clear, unbiased look at milestone immigration cases covers four Supreme Court decisions—United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), United States v. Schneiderman (1943), Plyler v. Doe (1982), and Zadvydas v. Davis (2001)—that impact legislation today. Chapters consider one case each, providing an overview, the decision and the dissenting opinion, and two to three recent pro and con articles concerning the issue. Each article is preceded by a brief introduction and author biography. Readers can gain a better understanding of why children born in the United States are automatically citizens, why naturalized citizens can't be deported for their political beliefs, why illegal immigrant children have a right to public education, and why undeportable criminal aliens cannot be held indefinitely.—Kristin Anderson, Columbus Metropolitan Library System, OH
