C'est un vieil homme debout à l'arrière d'un bateau. Il serre dans ses bras une valise légère et un nouveau-né, plus léger encore que la valise. Le vieil homme se nomme Monsieur Linh. Il est seul désormais à savoir qu'il s'appelle ainsi. Debout à la poupe du bateau, il voit s'éloigner son pays, celui de ses ancêtres et de ses morts, tandis que dans ses bras l'enfant dort. Le pays s'éloigne, devient infiniment petit, et Monsieur Linh le regarde disparaître à l'horizon, pendant des heures, malgré le vent qui souffle et le chahute comme une marionnette.

Their name? The objectors.Their job? To break off weddings as hired.Their dilemma? They might just be in love with each other.When Sophie Steinbeck finds out just before her nuptials that her fiancé has cheated yet again, she desperately wants to call it off. But because her future father-in-law is her dad’s cutthroat boss, she doesn’t want to be the one to do it. Her savior comes in the form of a professional objector, whose purpose is to show up at weddings and proclaim the words no couple (usually) wants to hear at their ceremony: “I object!”During anti-wedding festivities that night, Sophie learns more about Max the Objector’s job. It makes perfect sense to her: he saves people from wasting their lives, from hurting each other. He’s a modern-day hero. And Sophie wants in.The two love cynics start working together, going from wedding to wedding, and Sophie’s having more fun than she’s had in ages. She looks forward to every nerve-racking ceremony saving the lovesick souls of the betrothed masses. As Sophie and Max spend more time together, however, they realize that their physical chemistry is off the charts, leading them to dabble in a little hookup session or two—but it’s totally fine, because they definitely do not have feelings for each other. Love doesn’t exist, after all.And then everything changes. A groom-to-be hires Sophie to object, but his fiancée is the woman who broke Max’s heart. As Max wrestles with whether he can be a party to his ex’s getting hurt, Sophie grapples with the sudden realization that she may have fallen hard for her partner in crime.

This is one of our biggest challenges, she shows, but also our greatest source of hope. Once we are given the full picture, how can we not act? And if a schoolchild's strike could ignite a global protest, what could we do collectively if we tried?We are alive at the most decisive time in the history of humanity. Together, we can do the seemingly impossible. But it has to be us, and it has to be now.

''La Torre también está presente en todo el mundo (...) es un símbolo universal de París (...) desde el Oeste americano a Australia, no hay viaje a Francia que no se haga, de algún modo, en nombre de la Torre (...)''.-Roland BarthesCuando Gustave Eiffel terminó de levantar su torre de hierro forjado en el Campo de Marte de París con ocasión de la Exposición Internacional de 1889, afirmó que era la construcción más alta del mundo. Y cuando, 41 años después, el edificio Chrysler, en Nueva York, rozó un poco más el cielo, la Eiffel no perdió un ápice de su altivez. Proyectada originalmente para permanecer en pie durante un período de 20 años, se convirtió en elemento permanente y fascinante de la línea del horizonte parisiense. Imponente de día y centelleante de noche, el enrejado colosal de la torre Eiffel ha cautivado a francófilos y amantes, escritores, artistas y soñadores de todo el mundo, dando la bienvenida a unos siete millones de visitantes cada año.Basada en un pliego original de Gustave Eiffel de edición limitada, este volumen de TASCHEN explora la concepción y construcción de esta estructura excepcional. Poco a poco, añadiendo una capa tras otra, el diseño emblemático de la torre Eiffel evoluciona en este libro a través de las láminas a doble página, los dibujos minuciosos y las fotografías in situ, añadiendo imágenes inéditas y datos adicionales del contexto histórico. El resultado es, al mismo tiempo, una mina de información sobre esta joya de la arquitectura vintage y una inmersión en el concepto creativo escondido tras el icono.

Desde agujeros negros hasta exoplanetas, el telescopio Hubble ha permitido investigarlo todo y ha cambiado no sólo la forma de ver la astronomía sino también nuestra propia sensación de estar en el universo. En el 30 aniversario de su lanzamiento a la órbita terrestre baja, esta edición actualizada de Expanding Universe presenta 30 imágenes nuevas, que desvelan otras joyas ocultas en los archivos del Hubble. Las imágenes, de muy alta resolución y tomadas con apenas luz de fondo, han dado respuesta a algunas de las preguntas más fascinantes sobre el tiempo y el espacio y, a su vez, han planteado misterios nuevos, como la extraña ''energía oscura'' que obliga al universo a expandirse a un ritmo cada vez más acelerado. Un ensayo del crítico fotográfico Owen Edwards explica las imágenes desde una perspectiva fotográfica, mientras que una entrevista con Zoltan Levay revela cómo están compuestas. Los astronautas veteranos de la misión Hubble Charles F. Bolden, Jr y John Mace Grunsfeld también ofrecen su experiencia y conocimientos acerca del legado del telescopio y el futuro de la exploración espacial.

C'est l'histoire d'une femme mal mariée, de son médiocre époux, de ses amants égoïstes et vains, de ses rêves, de ses chimères, de sa mort. C'est l'histoire d'une province étroite, dévote et bourgeoise. C'est, aussi, l'histoire du roman français. Rien, dans ce tableau, n'avait de quoi choquer la société du Second Empire. Mais, inexorable comme une tragédie, flamboyant comme un drame, mordant comme une comédie, le livre s'était donné une arme redoutable : le style. Pour ce vrai crime, Flaubert se retrouva en correctionnelle. Aucun roman n'est innocent : celui-là moins qu'un autre. Lire Madame Bovary, au XXIe siècle, c'est affronter le scandale que représente une œuvre aussi sincère qu'impérieuse. Dans chacune de ses phrases, Flaubert a versé une dose de cet arsenic dont Emma Bovary s'empoisonne : c'est un livre offensif, corrosif, dont l'ironie outrage toutes nos valeurs, et la littérature même, qui ne s'en est jamais vraiment remise.

El 1 de octubre de 1958 se puso en marcha la primera agencia espacial civil del mundo como respuesta de emergencia al lanzamiento del Sputnik por parte de la Unión Soviética un año antes. En una década, la National Aeronautics and Space Administration, universalmente conocida como NASA, pasó de estar integrada por unos modestos equipos de investigación que experimentaban con pequeños cohetes adaptados a convertirse en una de las empresas tecnológicas y de gestión más grandes de la historia, capaz de llevar personas a la Luna a bordo de cohetes gigantescos y de enviar robots exploradores a Venus, Marte y mundos mucho más lejanos.A pesar de ocasionales y trágicos reveses en la historia de la NASA, el programa Apolo sigue simbolizando la inventiva estadounidense, sus transbordadores espaciales lideraron la construcción de la Estación Espacial Internacional y su deslumbrante conjunto de satélites astronómicos, módulos de descenso y programas de geociencias han transformado nuestra comprensión del cosmos y del frágil lugar que ocupa en él nuestro mundo.A lo largo de los 60 años de historia de la NASA, las imágenes han desempañado un papel fundamental. ¿Quién no está familiarizado hoy con las fascinantes imágenes del universo que nos brinda el telescopio espacial Hubble o con las nítidas panorámicas de Marte enviadas por los vehículos de exploración espacial de la NASA? ¿Y quién podría olvidar las fotografías de los hombres caminando por la superficie lunar?Este volumen compacto está basado en nuestro libro XXL, documentado y editado en colaboración con la NASA, y reúne cientos de fotografías e imágenes renderizadas poco conocidas que han sido escaneadas y remasterizadas con la última tecnología. Los textos del periodista especializado en ciencia y tecnología Piers Bizony, del historiador jefe de la NASA Roger Launius y del famoso historiador del programa Apolo Andrew Chaikin, además de una extensa lista de verificaciones de la misión que documenta las principales tareas llevadas a cabo por humanos y robots, completan esta exhaustiva exploración sobre la NASA, que abarca desde sus primeros días hasta hoy, ocupada en el desarrollo de los sistemas espaciales para el futuro.The NASA Archives es más que una fascinante historia visual del programa espacial de Estados Unidos. Es también una profunda reflexión sobre por qué elegimos explorar el espacio y cómo vamos a enfrentarnos a esta aventura colosal en los años venideros.Sobre la serie¡TASCHEN ya tiene 40 años!
