Comprised of reports from The CQ Researcher en español, these topical books offer Spanish-speaking library patrons newfound access to indepth, balanced information on issues that affect the lives of all Americans, particularly Latinos. Among the issues the books address: How does society prevent teen drug use? What is the political future of American’s Latinos? How do we cope with the growing epidemics of obesity and diabetes? Should standardized tests be used to measure school performance? Each chapter features a background and chronology of the issue; an assessment of the current situation, including tables and maps; pro/con statements from representatives of opposing parties; and bibliographies of key sources.
