“International Students adopts a more wide-ranging approach that has the student at its centre. The result is a very readable study … . The book has a number of strengths that make it accessible, informative, and critically astute. … themed chapters definitely add a layer of narrative and analysis that sets this book apart from other studies. … This is a fine book and Perraton has done a worthy service to collate everything in such an appealing and stimulating fashion.” (Giles Scott-Smith, H-Soz-Kult, hsozkult.de, January 26, 2022)

“Perraton’s historical account of international student mobility is painstakingly and meticulously researched. It provides for the reader a tightly woven synthesis of sources … . . It is one that I will return to often and see myself citing regularly, a go-to reference tome for the history of this field. … this book is to be lauded for contributing a detailed synthesis and historical account of a multifaceted global topic. … It is a welcome read … .” (Jenna Mittelmeier, Higher Education, April 19, 2021)
