From the introduction:
"Rarely has Rio been out of the global spotlight in the past few years, from the World Cup to the Olympics, economic scandals and political anguish, and the ongoing violence in the favelas. However, this dynamic metropolis has a level of sophistication for which it is rarely credited. The city’s unrivalled seduction has always been its stunning natural backdrop, as well as its people, but now, when you brush away the sand and the glitter, there is plenty to discover underneath."
