Summary: Empirical survey
Comment: As a tutor for Mexican immigrant students in high school, I bought this book expecting to find the answer to a seemingly straight, yet complex, question: why are so many Hispanic students dropping out of high school recently in the United States? Though the authors don't give any suggestion whatsoever to those working with Hispanic students at risk of dropping out, their research disabuses readers of many widely held miscomceptions as that that argues that Hispanics' cultural background is responsible for their failure in schools.
