Psychosocial and Cultural Research on Poverty in Mexico
This new and timely book deals with the magnitude and the intensity of the poverty in Latin America, Mexico and the state of Nuevo Leon. The enormous and chronic social problems of poverty in 1970 struck approximately 40 per cent of the families of Latin America or 119 million people. In 1990, of 423,913,043 habitants of Latin America, 46 per cent were living in poverty, that is to say, 195 million people were suffering this calamity (CEPAL). According to the same CEPAL, in 2002 44 per cent of the population of Latin America was poor, whereas 19.40 per cent were living in extreme poverty, indigence or misery. Seen in another way, the poverty in Latin America increased in that period of 20 years, from 1970 to 1990, 38.97 per cent. At the moment, in Latin America there are 225 million poor people. This book is an essential reference to a problem which the world must, if for no other reason than necessity, deal with in a vigorous and just manner.

Research on Hispanic Psychology
The objective of this work is to capture and share the scientific production of Spanish-speaking psychologists, which is little known in the Anglo-Saxon world. In contrast, the theorists and researchers of English-speaking psychology are well known in Ibero-America. This book aims to help reduce to some degree this terrible, unfortunate, and chronic gap. This first volume is composed of nine chapters that were written thanks to the contribution of nineteen authors.

Research on Hispanic Psychology. Volume 2
This work is based on various research carried out from different contexts containing discussions from the national, family structure, staff, sexual, work, parenting styles, risk factors such as crime, among others, to demonstrate advances in psychological research of individuals who are part of a society, group, or community. This knowledge is intended to contribute to the development of new forms of intervention and social research that guarantee the timely attention to social phenomena through a legal, theoretical, and scientific framework that has been aroused throughout history in Latin America. This work emphasizes the importance of Latin American scientific psychology in the study, acquiring of knowledge about, and understanding of the progress of human behavior regarding reality, about the different situations that happen to it in fields such as politics, education and in improving the quality of life of people.
Chronic Diseases and Medication Adherence Behaviors

All of them are professionally experienced in the health field in their respective countries of origin.
Liderazgo y Emprendurismo
Liderazgo y emprendurismo son dos temas que, si bien pueden abordarse por separado, toman una dimensión mucho más completa al analizarlos en conjunto, ya que todo emprendedor, desde el más humilde hasta los empresarios reconocidos ejercen el liderazgo. Para entender la dinámica del comportamiento de las personas en solitario y en grupo, hay que remitirnos a la cultura, así como a la forma en la que las instituciones donde ésta se desarrolla enseñan a los niños. A partir de ello entenderemos que tanto la manera en la que lideramos como los patrones de conducta al emprender nuevos proyectos heredan su expresión cultural en consecuencia de la educación que recibimos. En este primer ensayo de la serie encontrará una explicación antropológica y social a los patrones de liderazgo y emprendurismo que hoy dominan nuestras empresas y una propuesta de hacia done debemos dirigir el golpe de timón.
