Abstract: "The Chicano Worker -- one of the few studies concerned exclusively with the economic aspect of Chicano life -- is a timely, incisive analysis of the labor-market experiences of Mexican American workers. Drawing from census data and other sources, the authors report on Chicano unemployment, labor-market participation, occupational and industrial distributions of employment, and various indices of earnings." -- Back cover.
