Description

Learn how Anglos and Latinos, America’s fastest growing minority group, can successfully live and work together. Although the Rio Grande may be the physical dividing line between Latin America and the United States, an invisible border – a cultural one – also divides Latinos and those in the mainstream U.S. culture. Latinos and Anglos raise their families, conduct business and solve problems in different ways. Side-by-side comparisons help deconstruct Latino and Anglo cultural differences, showing the reader how core Latino values, such as the hierarchical family unit and intuitive decision-making, shape behavior and compare with common Anglo ways.
