Readers comments on
Patrick Osio, Jr.s The Mexican
Perspective:
I recently purchased
and read your book, The Mexican Perspective. It
was excellent and something I think we could use
in our organization for training and orientation
.

- A few days ago I
purchased the booklet The Mexican Perspective.
You are a brilliant writer and well versed in
what you present. I would like to find something
that I can disagree with just to have an excuse
to fire-off one of my long-winded letters to you.
- You just have not given me a
chance (but don't relax yet) I have not finished
all of it because I am reading it slowly and
carefully and sharing your comments with my
family. B.A., Los Angeles, CA
I enjoyed your manual
very much, but wonder when Part II will come out.
It was clear to me on reading this primer that
you have much more knowledge than what was
shared. I hope you continue sharing, its
very much needed. F.L., Mexico City, Mexico
Mr. Osio Parts
of your book made me angry that the country I so
dearly love, the USA, would be thought of as you
describe some of the Mexicans think of us. I had
to remind myself that this is their opinion on
some issues in which many of us in the US would
take exception to. On the other hand it is good
to know what they think so we may be able to
reach out and correct those wrong perceptions
they have about us, just as you have pointed out
so many of the wrong perceptions we have about
them. R.W., Houston, TX
"I expected to read a
Mexico rah, rah, US boo, boo, so I was very
pleasantly surprised to read how you put the
countrys differences such a fair and even
handed perspective. The sections on Mexican
culture are excellent and the part about the why
and how of name usage is very enlightening. I
wholeheartedly endorse your 'primer', which is
far more than that
." H.H., San Diego,
CA
"Señor Osio, your
handbook is quite extraordinary. It is very fair
and unbiased with much information
as one
Mexicano and proud of it, I congratulate you, you
truly understand us
." M.E., Mexico
City, Mexico.
A friend recommended I
read your book I just did, and had to
write to tell you that I have learned more about
Mexicans through your pages than I had learned
during my fifty years of living next door to
them. Thank you. W.M. San Antonio, TX
What a refreshing and
candid book on Mexican thinking. As you say,
we have much to teach and much to learn
your book goes along way in both categories.
W.F., Tucson, AZ
Your handbook should
be must reading in every high school and every
college in the U.S. J.J. Oklahoma City, OK.
