Books on Migration and Missions

I am sometimes asked about books on migration and missions. While I reference many excellent works in Strangers Next Door, here are a few that quickly come to mind and in no particular order. I am certain there are others that deserve to be on this list. What I have overlooked, please post in a comment.These represent different perspectives. Some are practical; some are scholarly. Some are written by believers and some are not (much helpful information). Start here and dig into their references and bibliographies to go deeper into your study.Stephen Castles and Mark Miller, The Age of MigrationMatthew Soerens and Jenny Hwang Yang, Welcoming the StrangerMelvin Ember, Carol Ember, and Ian Skoggard, eds., Encyclopedia of Diasporas (vols 1-2)Matthew Gibney and Randall Hansen, eds., Immigration and Asylum (vols 1-2)Tom Philipps and W.
