| Richard Rhoda will be presenting his new book, 'Geo-Mexico: The Geography and Dynamics of Modern Mexico,' at the IFC on Wednesday, May 5, 2010 at 4 pm. | | The Costa Banderas Chapter of Democrats Abroad Mexico invites you to the Puerto Vallarta International Friendship Club on Wednesday, May 5, 2010 at 4 pm, when author Richard Rhoda will be presenting his new book, Geo-Mexico: The Geography and Dynamics of Modern Mexico.
This is a genuinely wonderful effort! The book deals thoroughly with all the traditional aspects of Mexican Geography: physical, social, cultural, economic, political, demographic, spatial. It does so in a manner which is thoroughly readable for both lay and academic audiences.
Mexico's importance in the world is clearly shadowed by its neighbor to the north, and this book positions the country properly in a global context. It is both popularly accessible as well as academically credible. Its factuality, comprehensiveness, and design are all impeccable. The many charts, maps and graphs clearly illustrate the information presented in the text.
Anyone interested in Mexico, and especially the thousands of Gringos who live in the country, would do well reading Geo-Mexico, and keeping it in a prominent place on their bookshelves for constant reference. Well indexed, it's easy to get answers to all those questions that are always coming up. For more information about the Costa Banderas Chapter of Democrats Abroad, click HERE.
