After a brief introduction to the study of the region, the early chapters of the book survey the essentials of Latin American history; important historical narratives; and the region's languages, religions, and global connections. Students are guided through the material with relevant maps, resource boxes, and text boxes that support and guide further independent exploration of the topics at hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second half of the book features interdisciplinary case studies, each of which focuses on a specific country or subregion and a particular issue.
