Book Description
Mi libro es ciertamente oportuno considerando la difícil situación que enfrentan muchos inmigrantes en los Estados Unidos y otros países. El libro es interesante y entretenido; ofrece inspiración para personas nuevas en los EE. UU. y ayuda a educar a los estadounidenses y, por extensión, a los nativos de otras naciones industrializadas sobre la difícil situación de los inmigrantes y su resistencia. El libro está lleno de humor y momentos conmovedores, pero también existe la clara oportunidad de debatir con respecto a las diferencias en las tradiciones culturales y la crianza de los hijos. Es un excelente trabajo y una experiencia de vida bien escrita y un plano para cada inmigrante que llega a un país extranjero. Una valiosa contribución a la comprensión de las dificultades de los inmigrantes y su resistencia. ¿Quieres una definición de racismo, estigma, discriminación, prejuicio, intolerancia y supervivencia? Usted debe leer este libro.

Book Description
An inside look at the U.S./Mexican border through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment. Featuring a Foreword by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jocko Willink. The U.S./Mexican border stretches nearly 2,000 miles and is protected by a thin line of overworked and underfunded U.S. Border Patrol Agents, who risk their lives every day. Stigmatized in the media and fought over in the halls of Washington D.C., this is the true story of what is really happening on the U.S./Mexican border. Borderline provides an inside look through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who is no stranger to violence, having served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment. The story begins on the battlefields of the Middle East and culminates on the southwest border of the United States, where Vargas was tasked with protecting his country, his fellow agents, and the immigrants caught in the middle. He learned firsthand about the unforgiving brutality of the cartels, human traffickers and the desert. After bearing witness to the carnage, Vargas made the decision to join the Border Patrol’s elite search & rescue unit called BORSTAR. With almost unfettered access, Vargas provides an in-depth, never-before-seen look into the U.S. Border Patrol, from the agency’s origins to its present-day missions.

Book Description
In Pura vida (Life is good)Spanish is more than vocabulary and grammar, just as Spanish-speaking cultures are more than products and practices. In this learner-centered introductory program, the authors’ commitment to a methodology based on true-to-life experiences brings Spanish to life. Pura vida is the discovery of a Spanish-speaking world through the experiences of real people who share anecdotes and reflections on those experiences. Students relate to these people and make deeper, more meaningful connections between language and culture, and acquire Spanish with an unparalleled sense of personal engagement. In this 12-chapter introductory program, students don’t only learn Spanish for real life, but also from real life. They discover that there is not just one homogeneous Hispanic culture, but rather that each Spanish-speaking country has its own rich, unique culture and that the people who live in these countries speak one common language with different accents, characteristics, and idiosyncrasies. The program offers truly seamless integration of cultural notions and language instruction and features 100% contextualized and personalized activities.

Book Description
My intention is that this book could serve as a practical guide to both promoter interested in investing in the most vibrant real estate area of the USA, or the family that just wants to have a second home in the beautiful State of Florida, and at the same time making a good investment and have fun while performing the task. In these pages I will summarize with the greater honesty the information for the investor to know, step by step, what to do and what not to do in these times of economic turbulence and Real estate rebound. I Include data and tips acquired through my long career. Good and bad experiences of successes and errors that produced triumphs and failures and that today serve to strengthen the pillars of success. That is why "Surfing the Real Estate rebound" expresses a thought that has adapted well to my "seaman mind " and that, linking it to the Real Estate world I have endeavored to convey into concrete and practical ideas, complementing its text with maps, posters statistics, graphics, and web pages, that will help the reader to choose the type of Real Estate investment and decide the where and the when and know how and how much, to succeed even with limited capital. The book is presented in a simple manner as a guide so that the difficult and complex (and still the misleading) becomes easy and accessible, not trying just to give ideas for a real estate management exhaustive, but councils not to repeat the mistakes of misperception, avoiding those classic and unpleasant "surprises", delays and unnecessary expenses, In order to run them correctly toward the type of investment that is more appropriate. After all, either to promote or live there, to build the "house of their dreams" it should not become a nightmare. Properly done, this task may result not only beneficial but comforting and pleasant. Taken from my 40 years of passionate experience in the real estate field, I share in "Surfing the Real Estate Rebound " the result of studies on a matter increasingly deep and specialized (which I'm still studying), as in any profession, it is necessary to keep up with the new technologies of the twenty-first century.
