具体描述
Before his 12th birthday, Philip Jia Guo had already lived in six cities spanning three continents, learned three distinctively different languages, and attended seven schools that had almost nothing in common with one another. On the Move traces his global journey to places as drastically dissimilar as his birthplace in South China, a quaint town in Switzerland, the American Deep South, both the poorest and wealthiest neighborhoods of New York City, and an affluent suburb in Southern California. He poignantly describes his struggles to fit in as a perpetual outsider and his feelings of being constantly forced by circumstances beyond his control to adapt to new environments, schools, languages, and cultures. On the Move interweaves candid narratives of this immigrant boy's unique childhood experiences with critical observations of such hotly contested social issues as race, ethnicity, class, religion, child development, peer group relations, immigration, assimilation, and national identity. This book appeals to anybody who is interested in learning more about the experience of being an immigrant and especially its impact on young children.

两晚上看完了，非常好读，在瑞士幼儿园游泳的那一段经历让人捧腹。作者虽然反省了race的问题，但是对于assimilation的完全赞同，也显示了美国熔炉文化的本质，多元只是政治正确。 http://www.soc.ucla.edu/faculty/Zhou-Min 这是他妈妈
评分"The best way to arouse curiosity is through censorship". This is an autobiography as well as a parenting book. I give it six stars.
评分郭老师一个CS大牛写回忆录这么有一套（大概是妈妈的基因吧）！什么时候能补全高中和本科那一段儿啊，圈儿粉了(*≧▽≦*)

评分看完《the PHD grind》后又看了这本。从了解华裔年轻一代移民的经历和想法这一角度看，这本书很有价值。值得一提的是，他妈妈就是在UCLA的教授，这本书是她讲的《chinese immigrate》这门课的推荐阅读。
