Lewis A. Coser presents vivid biographical portraits of émigré thinkers — spanning sociology, philosophy, psychology, art history, and the natural sciences — illustrating how their displacement profoundly reshaped American academic and cultural life. With the authority of a sociologist and the sensitivity of a storyteller, Coser argues that these scholars did not merely adapt to their new homeland but fundamentally transformed it, introducing European intellectual traditions that challenged and invigorated existing American paradigms. The work details the personal hardships, institutional struggles, and extraordinary achievements of figures who arrived as outsiders and ultimately became central pillars of American intellectual culture. Scholarly yet deeply human in tone, this essential volume stands as both a tribute to resilience and a rigorous examination of how forced migration can become an unexpected engine of cultural renewal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887888642267,"sku":"2026200007155-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/062d0d40-655b-4a8a-91f5-f17e68c9829d.png?v=1781747908","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007155-secondhand-refugee-scholars-in-america-their-impact-and-their-experiences","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
