Query: Comprehensive

Each chapter is comprehensive and delivers in providing a background, profile, and analysis of politics in selected countries. Unlike another reviewer, I did not see a particularly leftist bias. If anyone is interested in reading truly leftist material filled with criticisms of developed countries and international institutions, I recommend using a research database or even google using key terms like "neocolonialism" and "Dependency theory" in conjunction with "Latin America". Or pick up the latest copy of Annual Editions' "Developing World". There's a difference between discussing facts and applying interpretations to the facts, and this book does more of the former than the latter. It is dry and oftentimes repetitive, but it's also comprehensive and informative.
