  Toltec Empire - The Architects...

  The Toltec civilization emerged in central Mexico following the decline of Teotihuacan, one of the most powerful and influential cities of ancient Mesoamerica. With Teotihuacan’s fall around the 7th or 8th century, the region experienced a power vacuum, creating an opportunity for new societies to rise. Among them were the Toltecs, a people who would shape the political, military, and cultural landscape of Mesoamerica for centuries to come. 
  The origins of the Toltecs remain a subject of scholarly debate, but many sources trace their roots to northern Mexico, possibly the arid regions of modern-day Zacatecas or the deserts beyond. By the 10th century, they had established themselves in the Valley of Mexico, where they founded their capital, Tula. The early rulers of the Toltecs, including the semi-legendary Mixcoatl, are credited with uniting various groups under a centralized government and fostering a warrior-based society that would come to dominate the region. Mixcoatl's son, Ce Acatl Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, is one of the most famous figures in Toltec history. Said to be both a king and a priest, he promoted the worship of Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent deity, and encouraged a cultural shift away from excessive militarism and human sacrifice. However, his reign was met with opposition from factions who favored more warlike practices, leading to his eventual exile. His departure, shrouded in myth, would later influence Aztec beliefs and the idea of a prophesied return. 
  Tula, the heart of the Toltec Empire, reflected the ambitions and architectural ingenuity of its people. Expanding over several square miles, the city featured impressive pyramids, colonnaded halls, and massive stone warriors that stood as sentinels over its ceremonial centers. The city's strategic location allowed the Toltecs to control trade networks that extended as far as the Yucatán Peninsula and beyond.

  Latin American Economies offers a clear and compelling look at the economic journeys of three of the region’s most influential countries: Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. This 3-in-1 collection traces each nation’s unique path—from times of expansion and reform to periods of inflation, debt, and crisis. Through rich historical context and insightful analysis, readers gain a deeper understanding of the political choices, external pressures, and social impacts that have shaped Latin America's economic landscape. 
  In the section on Argentina, explore the rollercoaster ride of one of the world’s most fascinating economies—from early 20th-century prosperity to repeated financial crises, including hyperinflation and IMF bailouts. Brazil then takes center stage with its complex mix of natural wealth, industrialization, and ongoing struggles with inequality and corruption. Finally, Chile presents a case of contrast: a country known for its economic liberalization, relative stability, and controversial shift toward privatization following dictatorship. 
  Whether you're a student, researcher, or curious reader, this book offers a balanced and accessible overview of the forces that have driven both success and setbacks in Latin America's largest and most influential economies.

  Are you getting enough? Bestselling travel writer Ben Aitken wasn't.
  
  
  Increasingly flat and decreasingly zen, Ben gave boredom the boot and stress the cold shoulder by embarking on a whimsical journey into the serious business of having a laugh.
  
  
  He did a pilgrimage in Spain, a summer camp in Kent, and a cruise of the Baltic with 2,000 grannies. And when he wasn't on the road, he searched for merriment at home: by giving bridge a go, volunteering a chance, and gardening a crack of the whip.
  
  
  By incorporating the thoughts of key thinkers and boffins, Here Comes the Fun offers a satisfying balance of the playful and the profound, the serious and the silly, the daft and the deep.
