Como a Segunda Guerra Mundial se desenvolveu na América Latina? Esta fascinante história ainda pouco conhecida é contada neste livro pela repórter premiada Mary Jo McConahay. Em suas coberturas de guerra visitou setenta países e viajou por todo o continente latino e preenche uma lacuna crucial da época: a partir dos anos 1930 – tanto os países do Eixo quanto dos Aliados – estavam bem cientes, não apenas da necessidade de controlar o viés ideológico de seu povo, mas também os recursos estratégicos, e de suma importância, da América Latina. Nesse movimento, residentes de muitos países foram capturados para serem trocados por prisioneiros de guerra dos Estados Unidos. Com riqueza de detalhes, a autora nos revela como a Europa, a Ásia e o norte da África foram atraídos para a guerra e como os dois lados recorram à América Latina para alimentar os conflitos.

Have you ever heard the march of legions on a lonely country road? The Romans built thousands of miles of roads. For two thousand years they have determined the flow of ideas and folktales, where battles were fought and where pilgrims trod. Almost everyone in Britain lives close to a Roman road, if only we knew where to look...In the beginning was Watling Street, the first road scored on the land when the invading Romans arrived on a cold and alien Kentish shore in 41 CE. Temporary campaign roads followed, rolling out west towards Rochester and the first major battle at the Medway. As the Britons fell back to the Thames, the road pursued them to the river’s edge, carrying troops, supplies and military despatches. In the years of fighting that followed, as the legions pushed onwards across what is now England, into Wales and north into Scotland in search of booty, mineral wealth, land and tribute, they left behind a vast road network, linking marching camps and forts, changing the landscape permanently, etching the story of the Roman advance into the face of the land, channelling our lives today. Christopher Hadley, acclaimed author of Hollow Places, takes us on an epic journey into the past, retracing and searching for an elusive Roman road that sprang from one of the busiest road hubs in Roman Britain. His passage is not always easy. Time and nature have erased many clues, they rotted bridges and raised whole woods across the route. Carters found an easier ford downstream, and people broke up its milestones to mend new ones. Year after year the heavy clay swallowed whole lengths of it, the once mighty road became a bridleway, an overgrown hollow-way, a parched mark in the soil.Hadley leads us on a hunt to discover, in Hilaire Belloc’s phrase, ‘all that has arisen along the way’. Gathering traces of archaeology, history and landscape, poems, church walls, hag stones and cropmarks, oxlips, killing places, hauntings, immortals and things buried too deep for archaeology, The Road is a mesmerising journey into two thousand years of history only now giving up its secrets.

The definitive guide to eliminating the forces that make it harder, more complicated, or downright impossible to get things done in organizations. Find out why Adam Grant says ''If every leader took the ideas in this book seriously, the world would be a less miserable, more productive place.''Every organization is plagued by destructive friction. Yet some forms of friction are incredibly useful, and leaders who attempt to improve workplace efficiency often make things even worse. Drawing from seven years of hands-on research, The Friction Project by bestselling authors Robert I. Sutton and Huggy Rao teaches readers how to become “friction fixers.”Sutton and Rao kick off the book by unpacking how skilled friction fixers think and act like trustees of others’ time. They provide friction forensics to help readers identify where to avert and repair bad organizational friction and where to maintain and inject good friction. Then their help pyramid shows how friction fixers do their work, from reframing friction troubles they can’t fix right now, so they feel less threatening, to designing and repairing organizations. The heart of the book digs into the causes and solutions for five of the most common and damaging friction troubles: oblivious leaders, addition sickness, broken connections, jargon monoxide, and fast and frenzied people and teams.Sound familiar? Sutton and Rao are here to help. They wrap things up with lessons for leading your own friction project, including linking little things to big things, the power of civility, caring, and love for propelling designs and repairs, and embracing the mess that is an inevitable part of the process (while still trying to clean it up).
