“A vibrant United States that opens its doors to skilled immigrants will provide a greater benefit to the rest of the world than a closed, shriveling United States because the rules by which the US practices the game of economic development, job formation, and intellectual capital formation grow the global economic pie.”

So says Vivek Wadhwa (@wadhwa), author of the book The Immigrant Exodus: Why America Is Losing The Global Race to Capture Entrepreneurial Talent.  I discovered the Wharton Press book via a mention in the author’s Twitter feed and I reached out to ask for a review copy.

Wadhwa’s bio reads exactly as a pinnacle of venture research would be imagined.  He holds multiple distinguished university roles – Arthur & Toni Rembe Rock Center for Corporate Governance, Stanford University;  Director of Research at the Center for Entrepreneurship and Research Commercialization at the Pratt School of Engineering,  Duke University; and distinguished visiting scholar, Halle Institute of Global Learning, Emory University.
