Recenzii

Starred Review This series provides information to help students and teachers comprehend current contentious issues of today. Through knowledge of specific ethnic concerns, it is hoped that students will recognize the value of a different point of view..Highly Recommended.
Clearly written, balanced overview of social and political issues affecting the Latin American ethnic group..Useful supplement to existing series on this topic.
