Useful in general, but not on specifics
In this little guidebook, you will find more detail than a typical travel-themed TV show, but not enough to plan out a trip without other resources. I suppose you could say that after reading it, you'll have a better idea of what information you need to find next before your trip. Chapters include Land and People, Values and Attitudes, Customs and Traditions, Making Friends, The Mexicans at Home, Time Out, Traveling, Business Briefing, and Communicating. The clipart illustrations were useless and made the book look less professionally-created than it is.

Okay, looking for something more comprehensive
Brief, but well organized for someone with no previous information about Mexican tourist attractions and customary behaviors. Some very useful common everyday expressions.

Good book
This book is informative. This book will give a person about to do business or visit Mexico. This book gave me information on the Mexican culture that I did know or found confusing.
