One of the United States' most potentially disastrous national problems is the pressing catastrophe of massive illegal immigration. The Golden Door is a sensitive exploration of this difficult situation.

Reviews:

"The kind of exciting sock-'em history that you rarely luck into...The Golden Door is a first-rate book...an excitingly scary book that sizes up a mammoth problem...that lets conscience give self-interest several hefty kicks." -Robert Sherrill, The New York Times Book Review

"Tough minded, intellectually honest and gracefully written, The Golden Door is a most timely and important book." -The Dallas Morning News

"The Ehrlichs' book is the best contribution yet to a national understanding of the Mexican-U.S. problems with population and immigration policy. It should be read by every member of Congress." -Rep. Paul N. McCloskey, Jr.

"This book sheds much needed light on one of the most complex social and political issues facing the country." -Lester Brown, president, Earth Policy Institute

"Well researched and forcefully presented, the survey exposes a potentially dangerous crisis." -Publishers Weekly
