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.

让我学会了很多新词。。。原来英语里表达细微感受的词也是很丰富的。
评分I was curious about the intellectual, emotional and social influences on a child when his childhood was moving from one place to another in the world. The truth is that parents play an important role and contributions to provide a home environment conducive to learning and open communication to help them find their own way to grow up.
评分为了给要申请PhD的小伙伴找PhD grind 在时隔n年之后又回到Philip Guo的blog 然后发现了这本书 花了一个不想工作的两个小时读了几十页 what can I say...It is funny, honest and intriguing. highly commended! 总体读后感:知识改变命运!
评分我觉得作者这个经历放到自己身上有时也是适用的:偏远县城-》较不偏远县城-》城市-》省会。其实很多感受是相同的。
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。
