520    "Every year thousands of foreign-born Filipino and Indian 
       nurses immigrate to the United States. Despite being well 
       trained and desperately needed, they enter the country at 
       a time, not unlike the past, when the American social and 
       political climate is once again increasingly unwelcoming 
       to them as immigrants. Drawing on rich ethnographic and 
       survey data, collected over a four-year period, this study
       explores the role Catholicism plays in shaping the 
       professional and community lives of foreign-born Filipino 
       and Indian American nurses in the face of these challenges,
       while working at a Veterans hospital. Their stories 
       provide unique insights into the often-unseen roles race, 
       religion and gender play in the daily lives of new 
       immigrants employed in American healthcare. In many ways, 
       these nurses find themselves foreign in more ways than 
       just their nativity. Seeing nursing as a religious calling,
       they care for their patients, both at the hospital and in 
       the wider community, with a sense of divine purpose but 
       must also confront the cultural tensions and disconnects 
       between how they were raised and trained in another 
       country and the legal separation of church and state. How 
       they cope with and engage these tensions and disconnects 
       plays an important role in not only shaping how they see 
       themselves as Catholic nurses but their place in the new 
       American story"--|cProvided by publisher.
