Notes:
159 p., Many of those who emigrated from the Caribbean to the UK after World War II left behind partners and children, causing the break-up of families who were often not reunited for several years. Elaine Arnold examines the psychological impact that immigration had on these families, in particular with relation to attachment issues.
