It is the story of a character who represents the neoliberal mentality of our times, who mistrusts politicians, believes that the market is the most efficient mechanism for everything (even to combat corruption), and sees philanthropy as a social investment with businesses as the exclusive form of collective wealth.  In this new book, produced through years of thorough investigation, Osorno examines this symbol of twenty-first-century capitalism and of Mexico. Similar surreal dimensions lead Osorno to openly ask whether a man as rich as him can also be a good person.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49735652999441,"sku":"NGR9781786634375","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50261394653457,"sku":"CIN1786634376G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50964473282833,"sku":"GOR010154777","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51612578742545,"sku":"CIN1786634376VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1786634376.jpg?v=1751455652"},{"product_id":"slim-book-diego-osorno-9780307745170","title":"Slim","description":"Carlos Slim apareci  en la lista de \u003ci\u003eForbes\u003c\/i\u003e por primera vez in 1991 con mil millones de d lares en el bolsillo, la cantidad m nima para figurar en el elenco de los magnates m s acaudalados del mundo.

One of the main questions during the trial was whether the famous criminal is really the one who has been at the helm of drug trafficking all these years or has all the power laid at the hands of his partner Ismael Zambada Garc a El Mayo, a 72 year-old drug lord who has been involved in illegal drug trafficking for half a century without ever setting foot in a jail. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Ten years after its first edition, this book has already become a classic in literature on the subject. In addition to narrating the history of this drug trafficking organization through first-hand testimonies and declassified documents, it also documents through great research what was not said in the New York trial about the life of the real Boss of Bosses of this organization El Mayo; a drug boss who in the 21st century became the oldest and most powerful drug trafficker in Mexico thanks to his connections within the Salinas de Gortari, Zedillo, Fox, Calder n and Pe a Nieto presidencies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Osorno describes the country; where, when, why, and who.
