The Pasajes series is one of the most widely used and highly respected programs for intermediate Spanish courses in North America. As in previous editions, Pasajes is a multi-volume component program. Pasajes Fourth edition now consists of three volumes -- a grammar review, a cultural reader, and a literary reader -- that are coordinated by theme and by language, chapter by chapter, across all three books. The result is a very flexible program that can be used in any combination and so is easily adapted to suit a wide variety of instructors and courses.

This popular reader has been improved in a number of ways. Approximately a quarter of the readings in Pasajes: Cultura, Fourth edition have been replaced with selections that are more current and that reflect the issues and realities of the Spanish-speaking world in the mid-1990s. The Voces sections, which allow students to hear from native Hispanics around the world, have been updated with new voices, new questions, and a new 90-minute audiotape that students may buy along with the text, if they choose. The reading strategies sections have been streamlined so students get the essential information in order to move more quickly to the readings themselves. A new feature called Papel y lápiz now occurs in each chapter of Pasajes: Cultura, Fourth edition to give students an opportunity for guided writing.
