A newly updated edition of the best-selling primer on the social, political, and economic challenges facing Central and South America

Ten years after its first publication, Michael Reid's best-selling survey of the state of contemporary Latin America has been wholly updated to reflect the new realities of the "Forgotten Continent." The former Americas editor for the Economist, Reid suggests that much of Central and South America, though less poor, less unequal, and better educated than before, faces harder economic times now that the commodities boom of the 2000s is over. His revised, in-depth account of the region reveals dynamic societies more concerned about corruption and climate change, the uncertainties of a Donald Trump-led United States, and a political cycle that, in many cases, is turning from left-wing populism to center-right governments. This essential new edition provides important insights into the sweeping changes that have occurred in Latin America in recent years and indicates priorities for the future.

yoga socks
I’m a weirdo and don’t like to walk around barefoot. So, these help me feel like I’ve got socks on while allowing my toes to breathe. I just wear them around the house. They can work as flipflop socks for a quick trip to the mailbox. I do like to randomly hit the occasional yoga pose so the grippiness is helpful in that regard. I have wide feet and have not found the toe openings to be tight or any other fit problems. So far they have survived standard machine washing.Unfortunately, when I first tried on a pair, the material started to rip. I wear a 7-7.5 shoe size. I think these are made for smaller feet. The material is thin and doesn't stretch. The colors are pretty and it's a good price. I have to return them due to being too small. If you have smaller feet, they are worth trying.

My Favorite Style of Yoga Socks — I Love These
There are so many types of yoga socks out there, but this style is my absolute favorite. These toeless yoga socks are perfect: no individual toe slots, crew‑length coverage, and solid grippies on the bottom. I love them so much. They stay put, they feel great, and they give me the barefoot freedom I want without slipping around on the mat. Total win.

Great find!
I used this on a prom bouquet and it came out beautiful. Soft dainty sparkles for the perfect shimmer. A convenient small aerosol container that I gave to my son’s girlfriend in case she wanted to touch it up or use it herself. I love the fact that it’s still stuck on my crafting desk. Very affordable and it served its purpose plus some!

The ultimate festival glow in a bottle!
**5.0 out of 5 stars - The ultimate festival glow in a bottle!** If you want to be seen from space (in the best way possible), this holographic silver spray is exactly what you need. I bought this for a rave, and it exceeded all my expectations. Unlike other glitters that just look like silver specks, this has a true holographic finish that catches the light and shifts colors beautifully every time you move. The "quick-drying" claim is no joke. I was worried about it feeling sticky or transferring onto my clothes, but it set in about 60 seconds and stayed put. I sprayed it on my hair, my collarbones, and even over my makeup, and it lasted through hours of dancing without fading or raining down "glitter snow" all over the floor. I also love how fine the mist is. It’s a very even, shimmering distribution rather than big, chunky blobs of glitter, which makes it look much more high-end. It washes out of hair and off the skin surprisingly easily with just standard soap and water, too. If you’re looking for that perfect, effortless sparkle for a concert or party, this is the one to get. Just a fair warning: once you start spraying, you'll probably want to cover everything in it!
