Este libro trata sobre las observaciones del Dr. Guillermo Gonz lez
en relaci n al desarrollo de la personalidad colonizada en Puerto
Rico. Este tipo de personalidad ha sido descrito anteriormente por
otros psiquiatras y psic logos ampliamente en la literatura
mundial, pero nunca en Puerto Rico. Este tipo de personalidad se
desarrolla en el individuo a consecuencia de vivir prolongadamente
en las distintas colonias que se reconocen internacionalmente. La
definici n de una colonia utilizada en este libro es la que
oficialmente utiliza la Organizaci n de las Naciones Unidas (ONU)
en su Comit de Descolonizaci n. El libro intenta corregir vac os y
deficiencias de informaci n en relaci n al situaci n objetiva de
Puerto Rico y los puertorrique os. En relaci n a Puerto Rico, en
1952 la ONU sac incorrectamente a Puerto Rico de su listado de
colonias. Esta decisi n fue incorrecta, pues con la creaci n del
Estado Libre Asociado, conocido en los EEUU como "Commonwealth of
Puerto Rico," el t tulo de propiedad de Puerto Rico todav a reside
en los EEUU, seg n el Tratado de Par s de 1898. Desde entonces y
hasta el presente, Puerto Rico es gobernado mediante decretos de
los presidentes y leyes elaboradas en el Congreso de los EEUU. Esta
admisi n de hechos est oficialmente descrita en el informe del
presidente Obama de 2011. En Noviembre 6 del 2012 se celebrar un
plebiscito sobre el "status" de las relaciones con los EEUU. El
autor describe en su libro c mo la personalidad colonizada en los
puertorrique os influenciar y decidir la elecci n plebiscitaria en
Puerto Rico.

illness. All knowledge in this book is firsthand, as LaBrecque
dealt with the very things on which he writes. He believes that
Pilgrimage toward Recovery can point you in the right direction
toward your own recovery. His book is unique in the sense that as
he was writing it, he was on his own pilgrimage toward recovery.
The idea for this book came to LaBrecque in prayer when the Lord
answered him, saying he was going to write a book. LaBrecque's
first reply was that he didn't know how, and He replied, "But I do,
and I will guide you through it every step of the way. You will not
be disappointed; it will be a tremendous help to you."

rape and sexual violence and are plagued with struggles they can't
talk about. The time is now to start the healing and Redeem the
Silence.
""Redeem the Silence is a powerful expose on the subject of rape
in the 21st century. With stories that are raw and riveting, the
dialogue tears at one's emotions. A subject that is almost
overpowering, it is almost unspeakable. But that is the point of
Sherrill's book: the subject of rape must not be unspeakable
because it happens every day while our silence protects the guilty
and torments the victims. Sherrill Nielsen tells the truth about
sexual violation and blow s the cover off cultural taboos." " JIM
COFFARO, Senior Pastor at New Song Foursquare Church, San Jose,
