Originally published in 1990, Signs of Change assess the people of
San Francisco according to their own demonstrative standards
through the visual symbols. Special attention is devoted to the
visual perceptions of immigrants, those whose senses were not
smothered by over-familiarity or protracted compliance with
American mores. Immigration history is often studied in the
concentrate exclusively on narrow connections between newcomers and
their urban surroundings. The city has served as a data-base for
the study of specific immigrant communities; frequently it has
provided mere background for cloistered studies of immigrant life.
