Given current demographic trends, nearly one in five U.S. residents will be
of Hispanic origin by 2025. This major demographic shift and its implications
for both the United States and the growing Hispanic population make
Multiple Origins, Uncertain Destinies a most timely book. This report from the
National Research Council describes how Hispanics are transforming the
country as they disperse geographically. It considers their roles in schools, in
the labor market, in the health care system, and in U.S. politics.

The book looks carefully at the diverse populations encompassed by the
term "Hispanic," representing immigrants and their children and grandchildren
from nearly two dozen Spanish-speaking countries. It describes the
trajectory of the younger generations and established residents, and it projects
long-term trends in population aging, social disparities, and social
mobility that have shaped and will shape the Hispanic experience.
