Story
La historia de la revolución, como toda historia, debe, ante todo, relatar los hechos y su desarrollo. Mas esto no basta. Es menester que del relato se desprenda con claridad por qué las cosas sucedieron de ese modo y no de otro. Los sucesos históricos no pueden considerarse como una cadena de aventuras ocurridas al azar ni engarzarse en el hilo de una moral preconcebida, sino que deben someterse al criterio de las leyes que los gobiernan. El autor del presente audiolibro entiende que su misión consiste precisamente en sacar a la luz esas leyes.

Story
Un país es su historia y este audiolibro resulta de una ayuda inestimable para conocerla. Por sus páginas desfilan romanos y cristianos, árabes e iberos, austrias y borbones... Nos topamos con invasiones, guerras y revoluciones, pero también con fecundas etapas de hegemonía, paz y prosperidad. Todo un recorrido desde las primeras culturas asentadas en la península ibérica hasta su desembocadura en el franquismo y la actual Democracia. Un camino lleno de aciertos y fracasos, de momentos de gloria y clamorosos desatinos.

Publisher's summary
Entre 1958 y 1962 cuarenta y cinco millones de chinos perecieron a causa de los trabajos forzados, la violencia y la hambruna a los que fueron sometidos por el gobierno de Mao Zedong. Obsesionado con la empresa frenética del Gran Salto Adelante, su iniciativa, destinada a superar el modelo económico occidental en menos de quince años, provocó una de las mayores catástrofes humanas de la historia.
Gracias a una exhaustiva labor de investigación de los archivos provinciales y municipales chinos recientemente abiertos, Dikötter da voz a las víctimas del régimen y demuestra por primera vez que el implacable destino de las personas de a pie no fue un accidente, sino el resultado directo, y en buena medida calculado, de las decisiones en las altas esferas del poder. La gran hambruna en la China de Mao abre así una nueva brecha en el muro que aún separa a la actual China, heredera del maoísmo instaurado en 1949, del resto del mundo.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics?

These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Story
In a rarified world of scientific research, a revolution has been brewing. Its activists are not anarchists, but rather Nobel Laureates in physics and economics and pony-tailed graduates, mathematicians, and computer scientists from all over the world. They have formed an iconoclastic think-tank and their radical idea is to create a new science: complexity. They want to know how a primordial soup of simple molecules managed to turn itself into the first living cell--and what the origin of life some four billion years ago can tell us about the process of technological innovation today.
