[...] In this book, the reader is given to understand that this study presents an all-inclusive, eclectic approach that successfully combines the inner mixing of sociology and psychology. Thus one should be able, after reading the book, to really understand the dynamics of a socio-psychological drama in at least one village. This volume is adequate If one likes this sort of thing. I am still not convinced that one can analyze a village membership on the basis of models taken from psychoanalysis. Second, as a Latin Americanist, I found the study to present an extremely lifeless characterization, devoid of any of the warmth so prevalent in Mexican villages. Third, for me there was little new material. And, last, I felt very, very sorry for the people of this village. This book will not give anyone a better understanding of Mexican character, nor will it help if one is working with Mexicans in this country.
