The World Upside Down by Susan Ramrez
Taking the perspective of native Americans, this work aims to explain some of the general principles on which pre-Hispanic Andeans lives were based. It also describes how the imposed Spanish colonial system altered the organization and belief systems of the native inhabitants of northern Peru.
