"The Washington Dissensus offers an insider's look at the challenges facing Brazilian diplomacy in the United States as Brazil began its rise as an emerging power yet largely unknown to most of the US Congress, press, and general population. It is a rare personal account by a senior Brazilian foreign affairs practitioner and one of the best informed observers of US politics."
--Joseph Marques, Brazil Institute, King's College London
