I know very little about Latin American history, economics and politics. That is exactly why I wanted to read this book. It seems that this may be the only book we have that discusses the topic since my search of the catalog didn't yield anything else. Unfortunately, it was over my head for the most part. It's too bad because I think that this region is quite important to "Americans" (misnomer translation - those from the United States). Anyway, what wasn't over my head was fascinating.
Read my review here.
Other books on the topic:
Saving the Americas: The Dangerous Decline of Latin America and What The U.S. Must Do by Andres Oppenheimer
Democratic Governance in Latin America
Latin America (Opposing Viewpoints)
Latin America After the Neoliberal Debacle: Emerging Paths to Peace and Equality by Ximena De La Barra
There are many more books that treat this topic but they tend to be rather academic.
