La aventura de los romanos en hispania | Ano 218 a.C.: dos legiones romanas bajo el mando de Cneo Escipion desembarcan por sorpresa en la peninsula Iberica. Tienen como objetivo cortar las vias de suministro de los cartagineses, una estrategia mas en el transcurso de la segunda guerra punica, que enfrento a Roma y a Cartago por el control del Mediterraneo occidental. Sera el primer movimiento en un larguisimo proceso que culminara con la invasion y la colonizacion de Hispania, uno de los territorios mas codiciados por Roma, y uno de los ultimos en someterse totalmente a su poder.
Fueron necesarios dos larguisimos siglos de lucha sin cuartel para doblegar el animo belicoso e inquebrantable de iberos, celtiberos, lusitanos, cantabros... En ese tiempo, la potencia latina utilizo el suelo hispano como escenario de sus guerras civiles y como fuente inagotable de recursos naturales y humanos para el Imperio. Debido a ello, la peninsula fue completamente romanizada y la impronta latina terminaria por definir el caracter de los habitantes de estas tierras. | es |

Where Borders Bleed: An Insider's Account of Indo-Pak Relations | Where Borders Bleed is a keenly observed and anecdotal account of a factious landscape that has long engaged global attention: the Indo-Pak region. Covering almost seventy years of conflict, it chronicles the events leading up to Partition, reflects on the consequent strife, and provides a fresh, discursive perspective on the figures who have shaped the story of this land from Lord Louis Mountbatten and Muhammad Ali Jinnah to Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh.
Covering historical, diplomatic and military perspectives, Where Borders Bleed is intrepid, engaging with a range of contentious issues that have shaped Indo-Pak relations water sharing, Kashmir and Article 370. Equally, it is speculative. It asks: would terror have affected the world the way it has, if PakIndia had been a benign single entity? What if India and Pakistan were to reunite, much like East and West Germany? As the now-largest nation in the world, would the mammoth PakIndia radically change the globe s geo-political framework?
These questions combined with the author s own diplomatic access to rare archival material and key leaders across borders make this a one-of-a-kind book on the story of India and Pakistan.
A compellingly written account of India, Pakistan and the history of the subcontinent, rich in anecdote.
Written by India's former consul general to Karachi, the book presents rare archival material, interviews and insights into the lives of key Indo-Pak leaders.
Engages with contentious issues that define Indo-Pak relations water sharing, Article 370 and Kashmir and speculates on the future of geopolitics had PakIndia been a single entity. | en |
Catalina La Grande | Born a little German princess without a drop of Russian blood in her veins she came to embody Russia and as the country moved from war to war and conquest to conquest it was Catherine who became great. Those who served her throne, or her bed, were well rewarded while the serfs were condemned to ever-worsening conditions. Men were instruments of pleasure. The weak had to perish. The future belonged to men - and sometimes a man could have the outward appearance of a woman. She was proof of that. This literary tour de force paints an enthralling picture of Catherine, her seductions, her coaxings and her phenomenal devotion to politics and work, but it also brings the Russian court - with all its intrigues - brilliantly to life. | en |

Heroine Worship (Heroine Complex, #2) | Asian-American superheroines Evie Tanaka and Aveda Jupiter protect San Francisco from perilous threats in the second book in Sarah Kuhn's snarky and smart fantasy trilogy * "The superheroine we've been waiting for." --Seanan McGuire
Once upon a time, Aveda Jupiter (aka Annie Chang) was demon-infested San Francisco's most beloved superheroine, a beacon of hope and strength and really awesome outfits. But all that changed the day she agreed to share the spotlight with her best friend and former assistant Evie Tanaka--who's now a badass, fire-wielding superheroine in her own right. They were supposed to be a dynamic duo, but more and more, Aveda finds herself shoved into the sidekick role. Where, it must be said, she is not at all comfortable.
It doesn't help that Aveda's finally being forced to deal with fallout from her diva behavior--and the fact that she's been a less than stellar friend to Evie. Or that Scott Cameron--the man Aveda's loved for nearly a decade--is suddenly giving her the cold shoulder after what seemed to be some promising steps toward friendship. Or that the city has been demon-free for three months in the wake of Evie and Aveda's apocalypse-preventing battle against the evil forces of the Otherworld, leaving Aveda without the one thing she craves most in life: a mission.
All of this is causing Aveda's burning sense of heroic purpose--the thing that's guided her all these years--to falter.
In short, Aveda Jupiter is having an identity crisis.
When Evie gets engaged and drafts Aveda as her maid-of-honor, Aveda finally sees a chance to reclaim her sense of self and sets out on a single-minded mission to make sure Evie has the most epic wedding ever. But when a mysterious, unseen supernatural evil rises up and starts attacking brides-to-be, Aveda must summon both her superheroine and best friend mojo to take down the enemy and make sure Evie's wedding goes off without a hitch--or see both her city and her most important friendship destroyed forever. | en |
The Beatles Are Here!: 50 Years after the Band Arrived in America, Writers, Musicians Other Fans Remember | The arrival of the Beatles was one of those unforgettable cultural touchstones. Through the voices of those who witnessed it or were swept up in it indirectly, The Beatles Are Here!explores the emotional impact--some might call it hysteria--of the Fab Four's February 1964 dramatic landing on our shores. Contributors, including Lisa See, Gay Talese, Renee Fleming, Roy Blount, Jr., and many others, describe in essays and interviews how they were inspired by the Beatles.
This intimate and entertaining collection arose from writer Penelope Rowlands's own Beatlemaniac phase: she was one of the screaming girls captured in an iconic photograph that has since been published around the world--and is displayed on the cover of this book. The stories of these girls, who found each other again almost 50 years later, are part of this volume as well. The Beatles Are Here!gets to the heart of why, half a century later, the Beatles still matter to us so deeply. | en |

Her konserde o costuran, korku veren yurek daralmasini daha da siddetlenmis olarak hissediyor musunuz? Cok iyi oyleyse. Durmadan ilerliyorsunuz, gorevinizi her gecen gun daha iyi kavriyorsunuz demek ki!

Konstantinos Palaeologos | Son Bizans Imparatoru XI. Konstantinos Paleologos'un (1405-1453), "Romalilarin Gercek Imparatoru ve Otokrati" seklindeki azametli emperyal elkaba sahip oldugunda devraldigi Konstantinopolis, yani bir zamanlarin Yeni Roma'si, bu ihtisami yansitmaktan hayli uzakti. Yil 1449'du. Tarihin o doneminde ve dunyanin o parcasinda yukselen guc olan Osmanlilar, hakimiyetlerini yayarken etrafindan gelip gectikleri kadim imparatorluklarin bu aciz bakiyesine gosterdikleri tahammulun sinirina varmislardi. Sehri dort yandan kusatan ve karadan ikmal yollarini kesen Turklere karsi Kontantinos'un denizden yardim alabilecegi tek yer olan Hiristiyan Bati ise kiliselerin birligi adi altinda kendi Katolik inancini ve hiyerarsisini dayatmaktaydi. En muhtac olduklari anda buyuk bir dinsel kargasa ve bolunme yasayan Konstantinopolis'in Ortodoks sakinlerinin elinde kalan yegane koruyucu, tarihi boyunca sehrin taliplerini durdurmayi basarmis olan guclu surlariydi. Nitekim surlarda gedik acildiginda sehir de dusecekti. Donemin kaynaklarina gore iyi egitim almis, becerikli, sabirli, vizyon sahibi ve insanlari idare etmesini bilen bir hukumdar olan XI. Konstantinos, henuz vakti varken kacip kurtulmasi yonundeki telkinlere tenezzul etmemis, sayi ve askeri teknoloji acisindan kat be kat ustun Osmanlilara karsi sehri savunanlarin lideri olarak elinden gelen her seyi yapmistir. O gun muzaffer olan genc ve atilgan sultan II. Mehmed, "Fatih" namiyla yucelirken, elinde kiliciyla can veren Konstantinos da halki arasinda efsane mertebesine yukselmis, aslinda olmedigi, mermere donuserek uyudugu ve gunun birinde uyanip sehrini kurtaracagi inancina kaynaklik etmistir. Bizans uzmani Donald M. Nicol'un Atina'daki Gennadion Kutuphanesi muduru olarak calistigi donemde yazdigi elinizdeki biyografi, kisa ve talihsiz iktidari doneminde buyuk caresizlik icinde kivranan, bu durumdan kendini ve sehrini kurtarmak icin var gucuyle cabalayan ve sonunun geldigini anlayinca da bunu mertce karsilayan bir hukumdar portresi cizmektedir. | tr |
Su Seviyesi | "... Cunku gocup gideriz, guzellik ise kalicidir. Cunku gelecege yonelmis olmamiza ragmen guzellik ebedi simdiki zamandir."
Su Seviyesi icin bir sehrin portresi denebilir. Ancak Nobel Odullu sair ve denemeci Brodsky'nin kalemi ve bakis acisi bu portreyi zeki, bilge, dokunakli ve tam anlamiyla zarif bir hale getiriyor. Brodsky bir flanor gibi Venedik'in caddelerinde, sokaklarinda, kanallarinda, su basmis kiliselerinde ve dehlizlere acilan eski yapilarinda dolaniyor; insanlari, mutfagi, tarihi, hatta giyim kusami hakkinda birbirinden ilginc bilgiler veriyor, tanik oldugu tuhaf anekdotlar anlatiyor. Bu su sehrinden unutulmaz kis manzaralari, sularin yukselmesiyle gelen olaganustu guzellikte goruntuler resmediyor. Boylece sehrin kiside uyandirdigi tuhaf, tekinsiz ama alabildigine siirsel imgelerin pesine dusup insanin suyla, dolayli olarak da onun yansimasi zaman ve guzellik kavramiyla ikircikli iliskisini irdeliyor - ama ancak bir sairin, hem de buyuk bir sairin yapabilecegi sekilde. Su Seviyesi, Venedik'i sularin kusatmasi gibi zamanin da insani kusattigi bir gerceklik resmediyor sakinmadan -- buna karsin "guzellik" veya "sevgi" gibi, zamani asmanin yollarini isaret ederek... | tr |
Reagan at Reykjavik: Forty-Eight Hours That Ended the Cold War | The dramatic, first-hand account of the historic 1986 Reagan-Gorbachev summit in Iceland--the definitive weekend that was the key turning point in the Cold War--by President Reagan's arms control director, Ken Adelman.
In October 1986, Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev met for a forty-eight-hour summit in Reykjavik, Iceland. Planned as a short, inconsequential gathering to outline future talks, the meeting quickly turned to major international issues, including the strategic defense initiative and the possibility of eliminating all nuclear weapons--negotiations that laid the groundwork for the most sweeping arms accord in history the following year.
Scrupulously researched and based on now-declassified information, Reagan at Reykjaviktells the gripping tale of this weekend that changed the world. Filled with illustrative accounts of the private discussions between Reagan and his team, Ken Adelman provides an honest and up-close portrait of President Reagan at one of his finest and most challenging moments.
Reagan at Reykjavik includes 16 pages of black-and-white photos and 11 illustrations. | en |
The Visitor | The "magic" that once was America died horribly along with most of the Earth's inhabitants when an asteroid crashed into the planet sometime during the twenty-first century.

A tradição da medicina | Este livro esclarece de forma exemplar a ligacao indelevel entre medicina e moral. Trata-se de reconhecer que a arte medica nao pode jamais se reduzir a tecnica e que o bom medico nao e apenas o que domina os conhecimentos cientificos e tecnicos, mas o conhecedor e praticante da arte do bom e do justo. Em uma das ultimas passagens da obra, Angotti assim se manifesta, proporcionando como que um resumo da mensagem que pretende difundir:
O que o medico deve fazer diante de tudo o que foi exposto? O primeiro passo e praticar a boa medicina. Amar o paciente, ser caridoso, ter compaixao. O segundo passo e estudar profundamente, nao so para tratar o paciente de forma tecnica, mas tambem para se tornar um grande humanista. E necessario estudar medicina, filosofia, historia, ciencias sociais em geral etc. Na concepcao do grande medico humanista Jose de Letamendi e Manjarres: "O medico que so sabe medicina, nem medicina sabe". Essa frase de Letamendi precisa ser apreendida pela classe medica. | pt |

Goodbye Byline, Hello Big Bucks: Make Money Ghostwriting Books, Articles, Blogs, and More, Second Edition | You're not only a writer--you're a writer who writes for money. A freelancer. Someone who sells his or words for pay.
So, let me ask you--how attached are you to your byline? How much does it matter to you?
Nearly every writer wants recognition. But ditching your byline may be the smartest thing you ever do for your writing career. The market for talented ghostwriters is huge, and continuing to grow. Household names like Hillary Rodham Clinton, David Beckham, Donald Trump, Naomi Campbell, and Clay Aiken are all authors who used ghostwriters. An estimated 80 percent of celebrity-authored books are ghostwritten, and publishing experts say that half of The New York Times bestsellers are ghosted, too.
But it's not just big names who hire ghostwriters and book collaborators; the market for writers who can pen someone else's book is broad and growing. Book publishers, literary agents, book packagers, corporations, and everyday people all pay ghostwriters to write their books.
And that's just books. Ghostwriters now craft everything from blog posts to articles to content marketing pieces to white papers and even Tweets. Corporations are spending more than 40 billion dollars every year on content marketing, and need writers to ghost that work.
If you're a freelancer who wants to branch into a growing, lucrative niche; a book author who wants to make more money in less time; or a writer who wants to be paid (and paid well) for your work, it's time to say, "goodbye" to your byline--and "hello!" to big bucks. Author Kelly James-Enger has published more than a dozen books under her name, ghostwritten a dozen books for clients, and been ghostwriting and coauthoring for more than a decade. She's also the author of books including Six-Figure Freelancing: The Writer's Guide to Making More Money, Second Edition, and Writer for Hire: 101 Secrets to Freelance Success. | en |

Welcome Home: Travels in Smalltown Canada | Across thousands of miles, the Canadian population clusters like loosely strung beads on the thread of the 49th parallel. This is truly Canada--a vast stretch of land and a bounty of small towns. In Welcome Home, Stuart McLean takes us on a heartwarming journey from one coast to the other to visit these small yet vibrant places and meet their remarkable citizens.
We visit Maple Creek, Saskatchewan, an old-fashioned "cow town"; Dresden, Ontario, once a destination for escaped slaves using the Underground Railroad; St-Jean-de-Matha, Quebec, where the worldOs strongest man is buried; and Foxwarren, Manitoba, a quintessential hockey town. We wander along Main Street in Sackville, New Brunswick; explore Nakusp, B.C., which may have been the home of an illegitimate child of royalty; and watch the icebergs float by in Ferryland, Newfoundland.
Each town Stuart visits tells us a little about Canada's rich and often forgotten history and a lot about who Canadians are today. With a storyteller's eye for detail and an effervescent sense of humour, Stuart McLean introduces us to seven truly wonderful places and dozens of extraordinary people. | en |

Solaris: The Definitive Edition | A classic work of science fiction by renowned Polish novelist and satirist Stanislaw Lem.
When Kris Kelvin arrives at the planet Solaris to study the ocean that covers its surface, he finds a painful, hitherto unconscious memory embodied in the living physical likeness of a long-dead lover. Others examining the planet, Kelvin learns, are plagued with their own repressed and newly corporeal memories. The Solaris ocean may be a massive brain that creates these incarnate memories, though its purpose in doing so is unknown, forcing the scientists to shift the focus of their quest and wonder if they can truly understand the universe without first understanding what lies within their hearts.

Jazz, Perfume & the Incident | In Jakarta's gleaming center a man and a woman watch each other from adjoining skyscrapers. The man, a journalist, has on his desk reports he doesn't dare publish of a massacre in East Timor. He contemplates the demands of truth and confronts the split in his world between a sophisticated urban life where the women waft by in signature perfumes, and the primitive oppression of Indonesia's army state in East Timor. Only jazz mediates. A music of raw emotion and powerful refinement, urbane yet born in the growl and moan of generations of slaves, jazz is not literal, but absolutely true. So too this novel, which defied Indonesia's regime of censorship and made available, in its pages, the heavily censored reality that journalists dared not report. In "Jazz, Perfume and the Incident," Seno Gumira Ajidarma combines the surreal and the actual in a way that forever changed Indonesian literature and political discourse. | en |
