Iberoamérica
Resumen del Libro
Impartial, modern, and friendly, this book introduces readers to the civilization and culture of Latin America– from the most obscure beginnings to the present–and at the same time provides them with opportunities to improve their listening, speaking and writing skills. Comprehensive and chronological in approach, it offers well-researched coverage that goes beyond historical facts to include aspects of modern interest, sociology, economy, politics, philosophy, literature, arts, and communication.
