Paperback. Condition: New. Women and men migrate across international boundaries at roughly the same rate. Yet most scholarship assumes that international migration results primarily from the labor migration of male workers. When international female migration is acknowledged, the focus is almost exclusively on women in the low-wage labor sector of the global economy. Gender and Immigration challenges this outlook by examining the diverse and complex ways in which women in a variety of occupational and social categories experience international relocation. Written by experts and policymakers in the field, the timely essays collected here explore whether international migration provides women with opportunities for liberation from the subordinate gender roles of their countries of origin. Or, do migrant women face both traditional and new forms of subordination and discrimination in their host societies? Exploring the experiences of a broad range of women, from "unskilled" workers on the U.S.-Mexican border and Filipino mail-order brides to Indian-American motel owners, Asian businesswomen, and Russian immigrants to Israel, Gender and Immigration offers a much-needed corrective to the long-standing invisibility of women in international migration research.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The war for the Nexus is over.The consequences are not.In Requiem of Realms, the breathtaking conclusion to The Ascendant Guardian trilogy, the multiverse stands at the edge of a new kind of collapse-one born not from destruction, but from belief.Jordan has faced tyrants, shattered realms, and the catastrophic legacy of the Fold. But the greatest threat he has ever encountered does not seek domination through force. It offers harmony. Unity. Peace-at the cost of identity.Aeridan's influence lingers like a quiet song woven into memory itself, reshaping reality through persuasion rather than power. Entire worlds begin to question not who rules them, but why resistance ever mattered at all. As ideology replaces violence and consensus becomes a weapon, Jordan must confront the most dangerous enemy of all: the temptation to surrender choice for certainty.To protect what remains of the Nexus, Jordan and his allies journey through fractured realms suspended outside time-places where forgotten histories, alternate selves, and unresolved truths still breathe. Each step forces them to face not only what was lost, but what could have been. and what must never be allowed to exist.As the final echoes of the Fold resurface, Jordan is forced to make a decision that will define the future of the Realms-not as a conqueror or savior, but as something far more difficult: a guardian of truth in a universe desperate for silence.Requiem of Realms is an epic blend of high fantasy and philosophical science fiction, exploring themes of memory, identity, free will, and the cost of peace without choice. Grand in scale yet deeply personal, this final chapter delivers a powerful, emotional conclusion to a trilogy built on consequence rather than spectacle.Some wars are fought with blades.Others are fought with belief.And the most dangerous victories are the ones that ask you to forget who you are.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Ascendant Guardian: The Architect's WarBook Two of The Ascendant Guardian Trilogyby Gregory KelsonThe reforging of the Nexus was meant to bring peace. Instead, it awakened the next great war.The planes stand united - in theory. The coalition of magic, once bound by trust, now trembles under the weight of suspicion and fear. In the wake of victory, whispers of betrayal ripple through every realm. Envoys vanish. Outposts fall silent. And in the ley-lit skies above the Nexus, something unseen begins to rewrite the very fabric of existence.Jordan, the Ascendant Guardian, feels it before anyone else - the subtle discord in the threads of magic that weave the planes together. The ley-lines that once sang in harmony now hum with dissonance, warning of a darkness not content to destroy, but to reshape. When fragments of an ancient sigil surface - the mark of Vaerion, thought vanquished long ago - Jordan and his allies realize that their greatest enemy was never truly gone.From the burning ruins of Emberdeep to the shattered halls of the Obsidian Bastion, Jordan, Kaelen, and the surviving Council must confront a truth far more terrifying than war: the rise of a mind that seeks not conquest, but conversion. Aeridan, the Architect, emerges from myth - a visionary turned zealot whose plan is nothing less than the re-creation of existence itself. He calls it The Singularity Doctrine - a perfect, unified reality free from conflict, individuality, and choice. To achieve it, he will collapse the realms into one.As the balance of creation falters, Jordan must face impossible choices. To save the planes, he must risk becoming what he fears most: a weapon of his own making. Allies become suspects. Memories twist into lies. The Nexus - once a beacon of unity - begins to fracture from within. Every victory carries a cost, and every truth uncovered draws Jordan closer to a revelation that will shatter everything he believes about power, loyalty, and destiny.Beneath the storm of collapsing worlds, where time folds and faith bleeds into shadow, the Guardian will stand against the Architect - light against living flame, will against inevitability. And when the final ley-line breaks, reality itself will choose a side.The Ascendant Guardian: The Architect's War continues the sweeping saga that began with The Reforging of the Nexus, blending epic fantasy, cosmic wonder, and deep psychological conflict. Fans of Brandon Sanderson, Brent Weeks, and Steven Erikson will find themselves drawn into a world where philosophy becomes weapon, and magic is not merely power - it is identity.Prepare for breathtaking battles, intricate lore, and haunting revelations as the Ascendant Guardian trilogy enters its most perilous chapter.Will the Guardian preserve the Balance - or will he become the Architect of its end?
