Product Description
Brazil is a land of global superlatives, boasting the best soccer, the largest rainforest and the world’s worst social and economic inequity. Its vibrant culture is best known for Carnival and samba and attracts thousands of visitors every year. The Carnival capital of Rio also showcases Brazil’s contrasts, as the shanty towns of the dispossessed cling to spectacular mountainsides, overlooking the beach playgrounds of the rich. Brazil in Focus is an authoritative and up-to-date guide to the giant of Latin America. It explores: the history, the people, the politics, the economy, the Amazon and the environment, the culture and where to go and what to see.

In Focus Brazil a Guide to the People Politics and Culture
“Brazil in Focus” gives a synthesized, yet complete overview of Brazil’s history, politics, society and economy. Anybody travelling through, or planning to live in Brazil would benefit greatly by reading this book, as it will help the reader understand why Brazil is what it is today, and why Brazilians act the way they do. The travel helps section, tacked onto the end of the book in five short pages, is inadequate.
