Event Description:

William R. Kerr, The Gift of Global Talent: How Migration Shapes
Business, Economy & Society In the global race for talent, the United
States has managed to compete with other countries for the best and
brightest, attracting people who have transformed U.S. science and
engineering, reshaped the economy, and influenced society at large.
Yet while America is getting caught up in thorny debates about
immigration policy, countries like China and India are catching up. In
"The Gift of Global Talent," William R. Kerr takes the reader on
America's bumpy ride, from a joyous celebration at the Nobel Prize
ceremony to angry airport protests against the Trump administration's
travel ban. The book explains the controversies of the H-1B visa used
by firms like Google and Apple, delves into the superstar firms that
global talent flows produce, and explores how the United States can
become even more competitive in attracting tomorrow's talent.
