Rezensionen

"Hilary Perraton is ideally qualified to write this survey of foreign students and their experience in Britain, after a career in education in the Commonwealth and organisations involved with student exchanges and scholarships. ... it is an important scholarly achievement that will be the essential starting-point for further work on the subject." (Robert Anderson, History of Education, January, 2017)
