Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Machismo, the male ideal so specific to Hispanic culture, is complemented by its corollary marianismo, the female ideal. Both are examined in this careful study, along with the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder that so often accompanies--and, in fact, overhangs--the lives of the women who have survived the abuse that machismo too often inflicts.
