Trade Review"The research material in this book is a very important addition to knowledge on Argentine politics and the 'military process.' .. . The contribution is unique because of the interviews, documentary sources, and periodical sources analyzed by the author. Likewise, [he] offers fascinating and controversial ministudies in intellectual history that I have seen nowhere else in English or Spanish." Brian Loveman, professor of political science, San Diego State University
