The shape of the world as it is now and has been
Format: Hardcover
I am currently reading this book. I am a specialist in political science, history, Latin American studies and an "old guy" now, born just post-WWII. This is in a long life of study and research and living in three countries--US my birth country and two very different Latin American countries, just for context. I can simply and unreservedly say that this is one of the most important books I have ever read. Not only interesting to read for any caring person, but absolutely requisite.
