?This collection presents a diversity of dilemmas faced by many Puerto Rican women at various periods in their life cycle. Psychosocial issues are presented, using methodologies that range from literary analysis of short stories and biographies to statistical analysis. Major developmental stages are analyzed and all significant topics in the experience of Puerto Rican women are discussed and nicely woven into a cohesive theme. Migration, displacement, acculturation, the erosion of traditional social structures, the phenomenon of single-headed households, and the modifications imposed on the traditional mother role are perceptively treated. The collection is exciting in the wealth of knowledge it offers, especially to those attentive to the sparse but growing literature on Hispanic women. Strongly recommended for graduate and undergraduate students, particularly for those interested in issues of gender and ethnicity.?-Choice
