Page examines Brazil in the context of this current crisis and the events leading up to it. In so doing, he reveals the unique character of the Brazilian people and how this national character has brought the country to where it is today,teetering on the verge of joining the First World, or plunging into unprecedented environmental calamity and social upheaval. Not since Luigi Barzini's The Italians has a society been so deeply and accurately portrayed.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 153mmItem Length: 228mmItem Width: 33mmItem Weight: 772gType: South AmericaRelease Year: 1996 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
