The Rise and Fall of the Oil Nation Venezuela
This book explains why Venezuela is so rich in natural resources—it has been producing oil since 1922 and harbors the largest oil reserves in the world—and yet it is also a failed nation of class-divided citizens exhibiting deep poverty in a corrupt, incompetent state. Venezuela is a bipolar nation, where two marked poles in the society exist which have historical origins and are mutually exclusive. The book provides a critical analysis of Venezuela's history, economy and politics and explains the context and implications of the bipolar poles, known as the elite pole and the resentful pole. Both, it shows, have done serious harm to Venezuela’s prosperity. The author describes the vicious circle of oil wealth, corruption, inefficiency and world market dependency and gives recommendations for a better future.

A HERANÇA
O título do livro “A Herança” em frações de segundos pode deixar o leitor divido em herança genética ou financeira. Contudo, traz suspense a partir do seu significado que, segundo o dicionário Aurélio significa aquilo que se herda. No entanto, a herança aparece plural, pois se constitui em um romance que aos poucos vai se transformando em uma grande trama que envolve, amor, paixão, traição e ambição. No primeiro capítulo pelo desenrolar da história se começa a perceber que se trata de fortuna, valores materiais em jogo, pois, além da guerra desenfreada pelo ter, a falta de respeito e de responsabilidade há pois, a discriminação da mulher que é um problema do nosso cotidiano, puro preconceito, mas que no transcorrer da história, prova-se sua capacidade e habilidade do resultado final. Como vivemos ainda numa sociedade com resquícios machista, os homens de paletós fazem seu papel, seja em Alagoas ou Pernambuco, onde a trama acontece, nos levando as memórias guardadas das injustiças sociais do auge do açúcar no seu contexto histórico.
