Mexican Literature
Mexico has a rich literary heritage that extends back over centuries to the Aztec and Mayan civilizations. This major reference work surveys more than five hundred years of Mexican literature from a sociocultural perspective. More than merely a catalog of names and titles, it examines in detail the literary phenomena that constitute Mexico's most significant and original contributions to literature.

Make the right decisions with Horngren/Sundem/Stratton! Horngren/Sundem/Stratton's best-selling texts emphasize decision-making throughout each chapter.

Two text versions enable faculty to select a text that only covers management accounting concepts (Chs. 1-14) or one that includes three chapters of financial accounting review (Chs. 1-17). New OneKey provides the convenience of having all text resources in a single location and available in your choice of course management platform: BlackBoard, WebCT, and CourseCompass. OneKey also includes PH Grade Assist on-line homework with automatic grading and infinite practice for students).
