Book excerpt: "Section one, 'Leaving Paradise' summarizes basic demographic information on deportees, their migration abroad and the unlawful acts that lead to their deportation. Section two; 'Deportation Process & Experiences' is an introductory section into the experiences faced by deportees. It is an investigation into the treatment of deportees by institution/officials and makes reference to issues of family separation and being forced "home". It highlights one of the most significant issues as mentioned by participants in this study, which is that of family separation. Finally, section three; 'Return[ed] to Paradise' looks at reintegration and resettlement in-country"--P. 10.
