While immigrants adapted to local customs, opportunities and constraints, their practices and habits have left indelible marks on their adopted city, This fascinating volume Ethnic Amsterdam: Immigrants and Urban Change in the Twentieth Century explores how twentieth-century immigrants - in bringing with them their religions, languages, cuisines, sports, and other material and immaterial aspects of their native countries - have transformed Amsterdam into a cosmopolitan city. --Book Jacket
