Summary: Solid, updated information makes 2nd ed. best of the bunch!
Review: As a "frequent flyer" of expatriate-research books I have to say this is at the top of the list. The first edition was very good but obviously dated in it's listings of Internet and other topical data.

However it is for the non-technical details, the day-to-day aspects of living, that I look for in these books. The second edition still upholds this most-important standard. Many books of this nature only hold info for Europeans. I feel this one is as usable by Americans and Europeans alike.

The only omission - since Sept 11, 2001, I really don't hear a lot about how save it is for Americans to live in any of the European countires. This book didn't touch on it for Italy or discuss how Italians feel about having American neighbors. Likewise I don't know about the relative level of safety for Americans in European countries with large immigrant populations from unstable countires. To this date I still don't know how safe it would be to live in Italy or any other European country. That is obviously a very important issue for deciding where to settle, of if it is safe enough to leave the states at all.

Otherwise a great read! Now if someone would write book as good as this about France...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE source for Americans wanting to live in Italy!
Review: As a Librarian I see many books about living abroad. Unfortunately they are usually written from the British perspective. The British information regarding employment in Italy really doesn't pertain to US citizens.However, this book explains all the ways to work, live and have a wonderful life in Italy! Make sure your bags are packed - you'll want to leave for Italia as soon as you are finished reading the book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: As an Italian living in Canada, I can attest to this book's accuracy and completeness. A definite buy if you are considering to move to Italy on business.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must-have for potential expatriates
Review: Buy this for the visa information, if nothing else. This is by far the most informative and thorough book for US citizens on the subject that I have read. Some of the political and historical information is a bit slanted, but the practical information is accurate and extremely helpful for those who decide they simply must live in Italy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: accurate, helpful and well-written
Review: From the perspective of an Italian (me)this is one of the most useful guides I have ever seen. I really wish that when I moved to the United States a book like this was available. It is extremely accurate and will help you to make the most out of an already wonderful country and a potentially great experience.
