The experiences and lessons learned from the authors of the articles herein are shared with empathy and humility across many disciplines. The creation and re-creation of individual identities and group identities due to migrations throughout history is an ongoing story. Never does one cultural profile remain constant. On the contrary, as boundaries change, so do people and therefore cultures. Interculturalism is the one valid approach to understanding these changes but should be used with great sensitivity. And sensitivity is the over-riding emotion emanating from the different studies in this volume: the search for one?s identity when the latter has been lost or has become difficult to recognize, the attempts to erase identities so as to conform to national unity, the will to create new identities to fit in with new environments, the need to re-evaluate oneself so as to remain true to oneself?These endeavors are subtly described in this vibrant compendium of intercultural monographies. 606 $aCultural 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCultural. 676 $a905 702 $a(Tina) Johnson$b Newtona 702 $aSimpson$b Shawn 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480382803321 996 $aBridging differences$92455145 997 $aUNINA
