Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Readings in Latin American Civilization
Scholars are notorious for being the victims of their own en thusiasms and prejudices and for considering that their own dic tums in their respective fields of interest constitute the last word of authority. But any scholar who asserts that he can select from literally thousands of documents the most appropriate supple mentary reading material for the use of students is necessarily a genius - or a prevaricator.
