Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israeli social scientists and educators, many themselves originally from Russia, examine the experiences of young immigrants whose childhood was during the final days and aftermath of the Soviet Union, focusing on how they have adjusted to Israeli society in general and to the education system in particular. They find a triple identity crisis: from the breakdown of basic values and norms during Perestroika, from their confrontation with the totally new and alien Israeli culture, and from adolescence.
