About the Author Eric Kaufmann has been researching immigration, religion, and national identity for more than twenty years.
Deeply thought provoking, enriched with illustrative stories, and drawing on detailed and extraordinary survey, demographic, and electoral data, Whiteshift will redefine the way we discuss race in the twenty-first century.
