Zusatztext "The author has created a rich tapestry of the culture of the Latin Americas, lled with insights drawn from history, art, literature, anthropology, sociology and politics. In terms of scope, it is an ambitious and admirable attempt to bring together knowledge from so many domains, and to produce an integrated understanding of the countries in the Americas. Behrens innovatively brings out the distinctive value preferences of the people of countries like Argentina, Brazil, and America.

It would be especially valuable to those who need to work and negotiate with businesses/ people in Latin America, in particular Brazil."
