New to the Third Edition
Approximately one-half of the text consists of new and revised content and activities.
This edition includes grammar explanations and easy-reference tables within the text itself (these were previously in the accompanying Workbook/Laboratory Manual), and new grammar activities for a more comprehensive and user-friendly text.
New vocabulary tables provide students with vocabulary words used within a context and with the words’ most common derivatives.
The theme for Unit 4 has been substantially revised and now addresses the broader topic of globalization and communication.
A complete reorganization of content at the end of each unit now includes the following sections: ¿Qué te parece?, Composición, and Proyecto cultural. These sections provide the necessary tools for a well-rounded practice of the four language skills.
A new, fresh design makes the text more contemporary and user-friendly.
The literary readings from previous editions are now contained in a new, separate optional literary reader and also in an interactive format on CD-ROM.
