A short history of humanity
Hoy -5% en Libros

Krause, Johannes

Humanity has often found itself on the precipice. We've survived and thrived because we've never stopped moving...In this eye-opening book, Johannes Krause, Chair of the Max Planck Institute for the History of Humanity, offers a new way of understanding our past, present and future.Marshalling unique insights from archaeogenetics, an emerging new discipline that allows us to read our ancestors' DNA like journals chronicling personal stories of migration, Krause charts two millennia of adaption, movement and survival, culminating in the triumph of Homo Sapiens as we swept through Europe and beyond in successive waves of migration - developing everything from language, the patriarchy, disease, art and a love of pets as we did so.We also meet our ancestors, from those many of us have heard of - such as Homo Erectus and the Neanderthals - to the wildly unfamiliar but no less real: the recently discovered Denisovans, who ranged across Asia and, like humans, interbred with Neanderthals, the Aurignacians, skilled artists who, 40,000 years ago, brought about an extraordinary transformation in what our species could invent and create, the Varna, who buried their loved ones with gold long before the Pharaohs of Egypt did, and the Gravettians, big game hunters who were Europe's most successful early settlers until they perished in the face of the toughest opponent humanity had ever faced: the ice age.As well as being a radical new telling of our shared story, this book is a reminder that the global problems that keep us awake at night - climate catastrophe, the sudden emergence of deadly epidemics, refugee crises, ethnic conflict, over-population - are all things we've faced, and overcome, before.

My name is Barbra
Hoy -5% en Libros

Streisand, Barbra

Barbra Streisand is by any account a living legend, a woman who in a career spanning six decades has excelled in every area of entertainment. She is among the handful of EGOT winners (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) and has one of the greatest and most recognizable voices in popular music. She has been nominated for a Grammy 46 times, and with Yentl she became the first woman to write, produce, direct, and star in a major motion picture. In My Name Is Barbra, she tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career, from growing up in Brooklyn to her first star-making appearances in New York nightclubs to her breakout performance in Funny Girl (musical and film) to the long string of successes in every medium in the years that followed. The book is, like Barbra herself, frank, funny, opinionated, and charming. She recounts her early struggles to become an actress, eventually turning to singing to earn a living, the recording of some of her acclaimed albums, the years of effort involved in making Yentl, her direction of The Prince of Tides, her friendships with figures ranging from Marlon Brando to Madeleine Albright, her political advocacy, and the fulfillment she’s found in her marriage to James Brolin. No entertainer’s memoir has been more anticipated than Barbra Streisand’s, and this engrossing and delightful book will be eagerly welcomed by her millions of fans.

The terrorist's son
Hoy -5% en Libros

Ebrahim, Zak

An extraordinary story, never before told: The intimate, behind-the-scenes life of an American boy raised by his terrorist father—the man who planned the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.What is it like to grow up with a terrorist in your home? Zak Ebrahim was only seven years old when, on November 5th, 1990, his father El-Sayyid Nosair shot and killed the leader of the Jewish Defense League. While in prison, Nosair helped plan the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993. In one of his infamous video messages, Osama bin Laden urged the world to “Remember El-Sayyid Nosair.”For Zak Ebrahim, a childhood amongst terrorism was all he knew. After his father’s incarceration, his family moved often, and as the perpetual new kid in class, he faced constant teasing and exclusion. Yet, though his radicalized father and uncles modeled fanatical beliefs, to Ebrahim something never felt right. To the shy, awkward boy, something about the hateful feelings just felt unnatural.In this book, Ebrahim dispels the myth that terrorism is a foregone conclusion for people trained to hate. Based on his own remarkable journey, he shows that hate is always a choice—but so is tolerance. Though Ebrahim was subjected to a violent, intolerant ideology throughout his childhood, he did not become radicalized. Ebrahim argues that people conditioned to be terrorists are actually well positioned to combat terrorism, because of their ability to bring seemingly incompatible ideologies together in conversation and advocate in the fight for peace. Ebrahim argues that everyone, regardless of their upbringing or circumstances, can learn to tap into their inherent empathy and embrace tolerance over hatred. His original, urgent message is fresh, groundbreaking, and essential to the current discussion about terrorism.

Magnum streetwise: the ultimate collection of street photography
Hoy -5% en Libros

Mclaren, Stephen

The ultimate collection of street photography from Magnum Photos. Magnum Streetwise is the definitive collection of street photography from Magnum Photos, and an unparalleled opportunity to follow in the footsteps of the true greats of the genre. An essential addition to the street photography canon, this volume showcases hidden gems alongside many of street photography’s most famous images. Magnum photographers such as Henri Cartier-Bresson pioneered modern concepts of street photography before the term was even coined. A rich seam of street photography runs through the heart of Magnum to this day, both in the work of recognized masters of the genre―including Elliott Erwitt, Martin Parr, Bruce Gilden, and Richard Kalvar―and in the work of those who may not think of themselves as street photographers, despite their powerful influence on the current generation of budding artists. Magnum Streetwise is a true visual feast, interleaving insightful text and anecdotes within an intuitive blend of photographer- and theme-focused sections. Ambitious in scope and democratic in nature, Magnum Streetwise is an unmissable tour through the photographs and practices that have helped define what street photography is―and what it can be. 400 illustrations

The last duel (film)
Hoy -5% en Libros

Jager, Eric

In the midst of the devastating Hundred Years' War between France and England, Jean de Carrouges, a Norman knight fresh from combat in Scotland, returns home to yet another deadly threat. His wife, Marguerite, has accused squire Jacques Le Gris of rape. A deadlocked court decrees a ''trial by combat'' between the two men that also leaves Marguerite's fate in the balance. For if her husband loses the duel, she will be put to death as a false accuser.While enemy troops pillage the land, and rebellion and plague threaten the lives of all, Carrouges and Le Gris meet in full armor on a walled field in Paris. What follows is a fierce duel, the final one sanctioned by governing powers, before a massive crowd that includes the teenage King Charles VI, during which both combatants are wounded--but only one fatally.Based on extensive research in Normandy and Paris, The Last Duel brings to life a colorful, turbulent age and three unforgettable characters caught in a fatal triangle of crime, scandal, and revenge. The Last Duel is at once a moving human drama, a captivating true crime story, and an engrossing work of historical intrigue with themes that echo powerfully centuries later.

¿Hacia la tercera guerra mundial?
Hoy -5% en Libros

Monereo, Manolo

¿Estamos iniciando el camino hacia la Tercera Guerra Mundial? La pregunta no es ociosa, la historia nos muestra otros ejemplos del inicio de grandes guerras cuando el hegemón del momento empezaba a declinar y surgían otras fuerzas que le arrebataban poder y mercados. Y este es hoy el caso: EEUU ha iniciado un claro declive en las últimas décadas, mientras otras potencias emergían con fuerza. China, pero también los BRICS, están desplazando el centro del mundo hacia Oriente, algo que EEUU ni quiere ni puede permitirse, pues a largo plazo ese desplazamiento puede acabar con el poder de su moneda, el dólar, y por tanto con su posición de superpotencia dominante a nivel mundial. De hecho, podría considerarse que la guerra empezó hace tiempo, pero que se ha acelerado con los acontecimientos que han desembocado con la guerra en Ucrania y, más recientemente, con el genocidio que ha llevado a cabo Israel en Gaza con el respaldo de EEUU, además del conflicto permanente en el Sahel y las tensiones en torno a Taiwan. Y a todo ello hay que agregar que en medios militares y políticos, tanto rusos como occidentales, se empieza a hablar con cierto desparpajo de la posibilidad de un conflicto nuclear, y se pasa a valorar la magnitud de la catástrofe como eventualidad posible. La pregunta, pues, es pertinente. ¿Estamos emprendiendo el camino hacia una Tercera Guerra Mundial? En este libro diversos autores responden a esa pregunta, y tratan de delimitar cuán cerca estamos de ella.

Europe
Hoy -5% en Libros

Flannery, Tim

From internationally bestselling author and celebrated scientist Tim Flannery, a history of Europe unlike any before: an ecological account of the land itself and the forces shaping life on it.In Europe: A Natural History, world-renowned scientist, explorer, and conservationist Tim Flannery applies the eloquent interdisciplinary approach he used in his ecological histories of Australia and North America to the story of Europe. He begins 100 million years ago, when the continents of Asia, North America, and Africa interacted to create an island archipelago that would later become the Europe we know today. It was on these ancient tropical lands that the first distinctly European organisms evolved. Flannery teaches us about Europe’s midwife toad, which has endured since the continent’s beginning, while elephants, crocodiles, and giant sharks have come and gone. He explores the monumental changes wrought by the devastating comet strike and shows how rapid atmospheric shifts transformed the European archipelago into a single landmass during the Eocene.As the story moves through millions of years of evolutionary history, Flannery eventually turns to our own species, describing the immense impact humans had on the continent’s flora and fauna—within 30,000 years of our arrival in Europe, the woolly rhino, the cave bear, and the giant elk, among others, would disappear completely. The story continues right up to the present, as Flannery describes Europe’s leading role in wildlife restoration, and then looks ahead to ponder the continent’s future: with advancements in gene editing technology, European scientists are working to recreate some of the continent’s lost creatures, such as the great ox of Europe’s primeval forests and even the woolly mammoth.Written with Flannery’s characteristic combination of elegant prose and scientific expertise, Europe: A Natural History narrates the dramatic natural history and dynamic evolution of one of the most influential places on Earth.

El moviment nacional català es troba en un moment d'efervescència i s'enfronta a un futur difícil però alhora esperançador. I ho fa amb uns instruments d'anàlisi escassos i ben sovint poc elaborats i amb unes orientacions estratègiques vacil·lants o contradictòries, expressió d'una certa feblesa argumentativa. El fenomen nacional vol aportar elements per a l'anàlisi de la qüestió nacional i per al tractament polític del procés de construcció dels Països Catalans. El llibre té, doncs, un objectiu ben delimitat: incidir en la conjuntura actual amb noves eines.

Felip Cortiella
Hoy -5% en Libros

Aisa, Ferran

Felip Cortiella i Ferrer és un autor que ha estat sovint oblidat tant en la literatura catalana com en la bibliografia llibertària. Les lluites socials de 1890 a Barcelona acaben de decantar Felip Cortiella cap als moviments obrers emancipadors de caire internacionalista, afiliant-se a la Societat Tipogràfica de Barcelona adherida a la FTRE. Els obrers consideren que s’han d’autoorganitzar per lluitar degudament per conquerir els seus drets socials i, finalment, aconseguir la seva emancipació. Les societats obreres catalanes van decantar-se a favor de la línia bakuninista, és a dir, eren partidàries de la revolució social i l’anarquisme col·lectivista. Cultura i activisme seran dos dels pilars d’una gran part del moviment obrer internacionalista.La cultura llibertària centra el seu discurs en la filosofia anarquista de l’acció directa, la solidaritat, el federalisme, l’autogestió i el suport mutu, alhora que desenvolupa la seva pedagogia didàctica a través de temes d’ordinari moral i regeneracionista, d’acord amb les bases de l’educació racional i de les lleis de la natura. (…)L’anarquisme cultural busca el perfeccionament humà atacant els vicis de la societat capitalista i es mostra contrari a l’alcohol, el tabac, la prostitució… Es manifesta a favor de la igualtat de sexes, a favor de l’alliberament de la dona, el respecte a la terra, l’abolició de l’explotació salarial i, alhora, lluita contra les xacres de la societat burgesa. La meta final de la filosofia anarquista és la consecució d’una societat d’homes i dones lliures.Podem afirmar que l’anarquisme es va convertir en punta de llança als escenaris europeus pel prestigi de l’obra d’Ibsen. En totes les seves obres, però sobretot a Un enemic del poble, traduïda per Cortiella, lliga amb la ideologia àcrata de característiques individualista.

The phone fix
Hoy -5% en Libros

Begeti, Dr Faye

What is really happening in your brain when you use your phone, and how to harness it. Humans are often fearful of the day the world will be ruled by machines, but have they not already taken over? The average person spends 4-5 hours a day on their phone, about a third of the time they are awake. We self-interrupt our work and social lives, forgo sleep, procrastinate important tasks and opt for digital distraction when we're bored or feel uncomfortable. NHS neurology doctor and neuroscientist Faye Begeti describes what is happening in our brain when we use our phones and why we have formed so many fixed and negative habits around them. She reflects on both deliberate choices and automatic behaviours, whilst also challenging myths around digital 'addiction', how dopamine actually works and the harmfulness of blue light. Rather than recommending a quick fix digital diet, or total abstinence - unviable for most people - The Phone Fix offers a practical guide, based on neuroscientific techniques, on building supportive digital habits. Technology is not inherently bad or frightening and by better understanding what is happening in our brains, we can replenish our willpower and improve our focus, forming a healthier relationship with our phones ­- and therefore the real people around us.

Red memory

Branigan, Tania

An indelible exploration of the Cultural Revolution and how it shapes China today, Red Memory uncovers forty years of silence through the rarely heard stories of individuals who lived through Mao's decade of madness. Nearly fifty years after its conclusion, the Cultural Revolution’s scar runs through the heart of Chinese society and the souls of its citizens. But official suppression and personal trauma have conspired in national amnesia: it exists, for the most part, as an absence. In Red Memory, Tania Branigan explores the stories of those who are driven to confront the era, fearing or yearning for its return. What happens to a society when you can no longer trust those closest to you? What happens to the present when the past is buried, exploited or redrawn? And how do you live with yourself when the worst is over?

Now, she takes you to the other side.With her signature humor, heartfelt honesty, and intimate true-life stories, #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hollis shows readers how to seize difficult moment for the learning experiences they are and the value and growth they provide.Rachel Hollis sees you. As the millions who read her #1 New York Times bestsellers Girl, Wash Your Face and Girl, Stop Apologizing, attend her RISE conferences and follow her on social media know, she also wants to see you transform.When it comes to the “hard seasons” of life—the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job—transformation seems impossible when grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Especially when, as Didn’t See that Coming reveals, no one asks to have their future completely rearranged for them. But, as Rachel writes, it is up to you how you come through your pain—you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you.To Rachel, a life well-lived is one of purpose, focused only on the essentials. This is a small book about big feelings: inspirational, aspirational, and an anchor that shows that darkness can co-exist with the beautiful.

How does progress happen? And why do we not have a lunar colony already? What is the hold-up?In this smart and funny book, celebrated cartoonist Zach Weinersmith and noted researcher Dr. Kelly Weinersmith give us a snapshot of what's coming next -- from robot swarms to nuclear fusion powered-toasters. By weaving their own research, interviews with the scientists who are making these advances happen, and Zach's trademark comics, the Weinersmiths investigate why these technologies are needed, how they would work, and what is standing in their way.New technologies are almost never the work of isolated geniuses with a neat idea. A given future technology may need any number of intermediate technologies to develop first, and many of these critical advances may appear to be irrelevant when they are first discovered. The journey to progress is full of strange detours and blind alleys that tell us so much about the human mind and the march of civilization.To this end, Soonish investigates ten different emerging fields, from programmable matter to augmented reality, from space elevators to robotic construction, to show us the amazing world we will have, you know, soonish.Soonish is the perfect gift for science lovers for the holidays!

Keefe, Patrick Radden

From the prize-winning, New York Times bestselling author of Say Nothing (soon to be streaming on Disney+) and Empire of Pain, twelve enthralling stories of skulduggery and intrigue by one of the most decorated journalists of our time.Patrick Radden Keefe’s work has been recognized by prizes including the Orwell Prize and the Baillie Gifford for his meticulously reported and engaging work on the many ways people behave badly. Rogues brings together a dozen of his most celebrated articles from the New Yorker. As Keefe observes in his preface: ‘They reflect on some of my abiding preoccupations: crime and corruption, secrets and lies'.Keefe explores the intricacies of forging $150,000 vintage wines, examines whether a whistleblower who dared to expose money laundering at a Swiss bank is a hero or a liar, spends time in Vietnam with Anthony Bourdain, chronicles the quest to bring down a cheerful international black-market arms merchant, and profiles a passionate death-penalty attorney who represents the ‘worst of the worst’, among other works of literary journalism.The appearance of his byline in the New Yorker is always an event, collected here for the first time readers can see how his work forms an always enthralling yet also deeply human portrait of criminals and rascals, as well as those who stand up to them.

*BBC RADIO 4 START OF THE WEEK and GUARDIAN BOOK OF THE YEAR*WINNER OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE 2021What will you sacrifice for the truth?Maria Ressa has spent decades speaking truth to power. But her work tracking disinformation networks seeded by her own government, spreading lies to its own citizens laced with anger and hate, has landed her in trouble with the most powerful man in the country: President Duterte.Now, hounded by the state, she has multiple arrest warrants against her name, and a potential 100+ years behind bars to prepare for - while she stands trial for speaking the truth.How to Stand Up to a Dictator is the story of how democracy dies by a thousand cuts, and how an invisible atom bomb has exploded online that is killing our freedoms. It maps a network of disinformation - a heinous web of cause and effect - that has netted the globe: from Duterte's drug wars, to America's Capitol Hill, to Britain's Brexit, to Russian and Chinese cyber-warfare, to Facebook and Silicon Valley, to our own clicks and our own votes.Told from the frontline of the digital war, this is Maria Ressa's urgent cry for us to wake up and hold the line, before it is too late.
