The Development of Mexican Identity: A Psychological Perspective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781793030474)

Manuel Isa僘s Lez, MD describes with his distinctive scholarship in this short book thought-provoking and compelling facts that Mexicans experience in their everyday lives. He describes the process which Mexicans - as a group - went through to integrate their national identity. Dr. Lez utilizes his knowledge of individual adolescent psychology to draw comparisons with the different historical periods of Mexican history. This book offers noteworthy facts about the history of "El Caballito", an equestrian statue of Spanish King Charles IV; the Mexican National Anthem; and the significance of the Virgin of Guadalupe (Mexico's patron saint). On this occasion, Mexico is Dr. Lez' patient, and just like he would analyze the psychological processes of an individual, he analyses the historical events. Dr. Manuel Isa僘s Lez was one of Mexico's most prominent psychiatrists of the second half of the 20th Century. One of his main contributions was establishing and developing the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry specialty in Mexico.
