Product description

The inspiring stories of 50 immigrants

This book explores the diverse achievements and strengths of immigrants in Switzerland. The 50 biographies on one page each give readers an insight into the lives of fifty cliché-breaking immigrants - both past and present - who inspire and fascinate. Each biography is complemented by a unique color illustration by Swiss illustrator Mireille Lachausse.

Read about famous Swiss immigrants such as Albert Einstein, Audrey Hepburn and Xherdan Shaqiri in a new way, but also get to know some lesser-known heroes and heroines: Naima Serroukh, who fights extremism, Mehari Afewerki, who opened a restaurant run by hearing-impaired people, or Tendol Gyalzur, who promised the Dalai Lama to help rebuild Tibet.

All of these inspiring people have made an important contribution to the world around them. Many have made great sacrifices. And one thing is certain: Switzerland would not be the same without them.

- Bestseller number two: the successor to Bergli's 50 Sensational Swiss Women, which sold more than 10,000 copies in Switzerland. Same format, same illustrator, same authors (mostly).
- Diversity: immigrants from 4 different centuries. Six different continents. Rich and poor.
- Inspiring: Immigrants have achieved amazing things and immigrants have fought - all this is in this book.
- Famous and unknown: Albert Einstein, Charlie Chaplin, Xherdan Shaqiri and many you've never heard of. About half of them are women.
