Biography
Jean Martin, Foundation Professor at La Trobe University from 1966 to 1974, was Senior Fellow in the Sociology Department of the Research School of Social Sciences, ANU, until her death in 1979. Dr Martin was a pioneer in migrant research in Australia, with her professional interest dating from her 1955 PhD thesis on the settlement of war-time displaced persons. Her more recent work includes the Report for the National Population Inquiry on which this book is based, along with a major research project on the Vietnamese in Australia.
