Book Description

September 5, 2006

Este libro muestra una cara de los Estados Unidos que muchos no conocen o que temen conocer. Estados Unidos es mucho más que la Casa Blanca, Disneylandia y la NASA. Estados Unidos tiene a millones de personas viviendo en las sombras, con el temor constante a ser descubiertos y deportados. Sin embargo, estos inmigrantes ayudan enormemente a que funcione la sociedad norteamericana.

Escrito en un lenguaje sencillo y directo, Jorge Ramos—el conductor titular del Noticiero Univision y autor de varios libros—nos presenta en breves pero poderosos relatos, las vidas de la gente que no sale en la televisión, en los periódicos ni en las revistas, pero que es fundamental para la economía y la cultura estadounidense.

Ramos, un mexicano radicado hace más de dos décadas en Estados Unidos y con una maestría en Relaciones Internacionales, es uno de los periodistas más reconocidos e influyentes de Norteamérica. En esta versión actualizada, con los últimos datos sobre el eterno debate migratorio, Ramos muestra el constante dilema de Estados Unidos: que a pesar de ser un país de inmigrantes, muchas veces no sabe qué hacer ni cómo tratar a los recién llegados.

Este es un libro fundamental para entender a fondo la verdadera naturaleza de la única superpotencia mundial. Aquí vemos lo que otros no quieren ver. Es la otra cara de América.

This review is from: La Otra Cara de America / The Other Face of America SPA: Historias de los immigrantes latinoamericanos que estan cambiando a Estados Unidos (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Jorge Ramos does a very good job at presenting a good collection of very touching stories. These are the stories of immigrants from various Latin American countries. It is written in simple, very easy to understand language. However, it contains a few typing errors that should be corrected before another edition comes out. I highly recommend reading this book.
