Book Description
Atrae el dinero con la ley de la atracción Ximo Despuig En este libro, basado en los artículos de Steve Pavlina, (un hombre que levantó un negocio millonario de autosuperación de la nada por el método de la entrega de valor al lector) descubrirás que el verdadero motivo por el que nos cuesta tanto ganar mucho dinero es porque no nos creemos merecedores de ello. La buena noticia es que hay métodos para romper las costumbres arraigadas y atraer la abundancia a nuestras vidas. Uno de esos métodos es la Ley de la Atracción. Descubre de qué manera Steve rompió sus propias barreras y después... hazlo tú. + Se me va Elena Larreal "Soy una persona muy sociable, aunque mis amigas no existan." "Dicen que es mejor no prometer nada a nadie porque cuando le dices a alguien que vas a hacer tal cosa, tu cerebro te da la recompensa inmediatamente, sólo por decirlo, y como ya te has premiado ya no sientes la necesidad de hacerlo y no lo haces. Que lo mejor es no prometer nada, sino hacerlo directamente. Es la mejor forma de que ocurran las cosas. En mi caso, lo de hablar con mis trastos tiene un efecto parecido. Consigo que las cosas pasen antes de que tengan que pasar. Quizá por eso corté tan rápidamente con Román. Cuando no paras de hablar durante todo el santo día con tus cosas, tu cerebro no deja de premiarte. Siento que las cosas dichas son ya cosas hechas y paso al siguiente punto de la lista. Así, mi vida suele ir más rápida que la del resto de la gente." Elena, una esquizofrénica no tratada que habla con sus electrodomésticos, conoce a Román, un chico romántico capaz de hablar con los muertos. Pero también conoce a Hombre Misterioso, un joven que asegura haber absorbido durante el embarazo a su hermano gemelo y que tiene la capacidad de ponerla como una moto. Como pasa con todas las cosas buenas de la vida, Elena tendrá que elegir a uno de los dos. O quizá haya otra salida. Un novela hilarante protagonizada por tres locos de los que te enamorarás. + El Cruce El Cruce es la nueva novela de ciencia ficción de J. K. Vélez. Si nunca has leído nada de este autor, échale un vistazo a los primeros capítulos e intenta no engancharte. Sobre la novela David es un niño de ocho años que ha perdido a su madre. Una noche sale de casa obligado por una poderosa atracción. Sus pies lo arrastran sin que él pueda evitarlo hacia un turbador encuentro con lo desconocido. Sigue a David y a su padre en este viaje adrenalínico… si te atreves. A ver dónde nos lleva todo esto… Lo que los lectores dirían de esta novela si ya tuviera lectores - Divertida a rabiar. - Un viaje alucinante donde la única constante es el cambio. - Una novela de género que toca todos los géneros sin ser para nada genérica. Lo que han dicho los primeros lectores - Un niño especial, situaciones extrañas, un recorrido con sorpresas inquietantes y suspense hasta el último momento. Una estupenda forma de pasar el rato. Susana Merinero, fotógrafa. El Cruce, la nueva novela de J. K. Vélez, ya está aquí. Tres excelentes lecturas que disfrutarás de principio a fin.

Mahatma Gandhi
Author: Dennis Dalton
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231530390
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.

Cecilia Valdés or El Angel Hill
Author: Cirilo Villaverde
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199725233
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
Cecilia Valdés is arguably the most important novel of 19th century Cuba. Originally published in New York City in 1882, Cirilo Villaverde's novel has fascinated readers inside and outside Cuba since the late 19th century. In this new English translation, a vast landscape emerges of the moral, political, and sexual depravity caused by slavery and colonialism. Set in the Havana of the 1830s, the novel introduces us to Cecilia, a beautiful light-skinned mulatta, who is being pursued by the son of a Spanish slave trader, named Leonardo. Unbeknownst to the two, they are the children of the same father. Eventually Cecilia gives in to Leonardo's advances; she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a baby girl. When Leonardo, who gets bored with Cecilia after a while, agrees to marry a white upper class woman, Cecilia vows revenge. A mulatto friend and suitor of hers kills Leonardo, and Cecilia is thrown into prison as an accessory to the crime. For the contemporary reader Helen Lane's masterful translation of Cecilia Valdés opens a new window into the intricate problems of race relations in Cuba and the Caribbean. There are the elite social circles of European and New World Whites, the rich culture of the free people of color, the class to which Cecilia herself belonged, and then the slaves, divided among themselves between those who were born in Africa and those who were born in the New World, and those who worked on the sugar plantation and those who worked in the households of the rich people in Havana. Cecilia Valdés thus presents a vast portrait of sexual, social, and racial oppression, and the lived experience of Spanish colonialism in Cuba.

Juan de la Rosa
Author: Nataniel Aguirre
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199938873
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Long considered a classic in Bolivia, Juan de la Rosa tells the story of a young boy's coming of age during the violent and tumultuous years of Bolivia's struggle for independence. Indeed, in this remarkable novel, Juan's search for his personal identity functions as an allegory of Bolivia's search for its identity as a nation. Set in the early 1800s, the novel is narrated by one of the last surviving Bolivian rebels, octogenarian Juan de la Rosa. Juan recreates his childhood in the rebellious town of Cochabamba, and with it a large cast of full bodied, Dickensian characters both heroic and malevolent. The larger cultural dislocations brought about by Bolivia's political upheaval are echoed in those experienced by Juan, whose mother's untimely death sets off a chain of unpredictable events that propel him into the fiery crucible of the South American Independence Movement. Outraged by Juan's outspokenness against Spanish rule and his awakening political consciousness, his loyalist guardians banish him to the countryside, where he witnesses firsthand the Spaniards' violent repression and rebels' valiant resistance that crystallize both his personal destiny and that of his country. In Sergio Gabriel Waisman's fluid translation, English readers have access to Juan de la Rosa for the very first time.

The Forbidden Religion
Author: Jose M. Herrou Aragon
Publisher: José M. Herrou Aragón
ISBN: 1471725693
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
Gnosis means knowledge. But we are not referring to just any knowledge. Gnosis is knowledge which produces a great transformation in those who receive it. Knowledge capable of nothing less than waking up man and helping him to escape from the prison in which he finds himself. That is why Gnosis has been so persecuted throughout the course of history, because it is knowledge considered dangerous for the religious and political authorities who govern mankind from the shadows. Every time this religion, absolutely different from the rest, appears before man, the other religions unite to try to destroy or hide it again. Primordial Gnosis is the original Gnosis, true Gnosis, eternal Gnosis, Gnostic knowledge in its pure form. Due to multiple persecutions, Primordial Gnosis has been fragmented, distorted and hidden.
