Zustand: Very Good. : Las Vegas, un nombre que evoca imágenes de divorcio y dados, gánsteres y brillo. Pero debajo de todo esto hay una historia sórdida que es mucho más insidiosa y de mayor alcance de lo que jamás se imaginó. 'The Money and the Power' es la mirada más completa hasta el momento a Las Vegas y su amplitud de influencia. Basado en cinco años de investigación y entrevistas intensivas, Sally Denton y Roger Morris revelan la red histórica de vínculos de la ciudad con Wall Street, los traficantes internacionales de drogas y la CIA. Al hacerlo, exponen las inquietantes conexiones entre políticos, empresarios y los criminales que aprovechan estas actividades ilegales. A través de esta lúcida y apasionante acusación de Las Vegas, Morris y Denton descubren una ética nacional de explotación, violencia y codicia, y brindan una reinterpretación provocativa de la historia estadounidense del siglo XX. Ahora, este torbellino de crueldad y codicia no se presenta como una 'ciudad del pecado' aberrante, sino como una consecuencia natural de la corrupción y la adoración del dinero que han llegado a impregnar la vida estadounidense.
