With warmth, humor, and wisdom, The New Latina's Bible explores a widerange of issues, touching on everything from family to dating to the workplace. Guzman offers helpful tips on improving self-esteem, and provides simple, easy-to-follow women's health advice. New chapters take on important topics like sexual abuse, domestic violence, interracial relationships, and LGBTQ issues.

A must-read for any Latina who faces the trials of living, loving, and dreaming in two worlds--the old world of their mamá, tías, and abuelitas, and the new world in which they are immersed--this comprehensive book helps to bridge the gap between the dual realities that shape and define the nueva Latina.
