Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004) studied painting before taking up photography in his early twenties. One of the founders of the photography agency Magnum (together with Robert Capa and others), he is best known for the consummate skill with which he captured the most fleeting of scenes. This volume, introduced by Michael Brenson, includes selections from his photographs of France, Spain, America, India, Russia, Mexico and pre-revolutionary China.
John Dewey's Democracy and Education addresses the challenge of providing quality public education in a democratic society. In this classic work Dewey calls for the complete renewal of public education, arguing for the fusion of vocational and contemplative studies in education and for the necessity of universal education for the advancement of self and society.
En las cumbres de los Cárpatos Blancos, en la comunidad de ?ítková, se encuentran agazapadas unas pocas casas. Todo queda muy lejos. Allí, dicen, desde tiempos inmemoriales un linaje de mujeres con unas facultades excepcionales ha logrado preservar un conocimiento y una intuición que han pasado de generación en generación durante siglos. Sanadoras, sabias y videntes, transmiten su arte de madre a hija, y se las llama «diosas». Si se dice que ven el futuro, ¿por qué no han sabido protegerse del suyo?Dora Idesová, la última de esta estirpe, siempre se ha mostrado reacia a compartir las creencias de sus predecesoras. O eso parece hasta que un drama familiar la separa de sus seres queridos y despierta en ella la necesidad de conocer sus raíces, de comprender a las enigmáticas diosas. Su vida cambia abruptamente cuando, a finales de 1990, en los archivos del Ministerio del Interior, encuentra un expediente sobre su tía, Terézie Surmenová, supuesta enemiga del régimen que fue sometida a una estricta vigilancia hasta el final de sus días. A partir de ese momento, su investigación se convierte en un fascinante viaje hacia las sombras y secretos del pasado que nos arrastra en la intriga y la exaltación del descubrimiento. Dora logra reconstruir el trágico destino de su familia, vinculado a una antigua maldición, pero entrelazado también con los acontecimientos históricos que marcaron su país y que pusieron los poderes de las diosas en el centro de los intereses primero de los nazis y más tarde de los comunistas.Una novela apasionante sobre el poder, la corrupción y la traición en los regímenes totalitarios, sobre la racionalidad y la magia, pero también, y de forma fundamental, sobre el destino de las mujeres durante el siglo xx. Traducida ya a quince idiomas, su aura no deja de crecer.
In a work of extraordinary narrative power, filled with brilliant personalities and vivid scenes of dramatic action, Robert K. Massie, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Peter the Great, Nicholas and Alexandra, and Dreadnought, elevates to its proper historical importance the role of sea power in the winning of the Great War. The predominant image of this first world war is of mud and trenches, barbed wire, machine guns, poison gas, and slaughter. A generation of European manhood was massacred, and a wound was inflicted on European civilisation that required the remainder of the twentieth century to heal. But with all its sacrifice, trench warfare did not win the war for one side or lose it for the other. Over the course of four years, the lines on the Western Front moved scarcely at all; attempts to break through led only to the lengthening of the already unbearably long casualty lists. For the true story of military upheaval, we must look to the sea. On the eve of the war in August 1914, Great Britain and Germany possessed the two greatest navies the world had ever seen.When war came, these two fleets of dreadnoughts-gigantic floating castles of steel able to hurl massive shells at an enemy miles away-were ready to test their terrible power against each other. Ultimately, the distinguishing feature of Castles of Steel is the author himself. The knowledge, understanding, and literary power Massie brings to this story are unparalleled. His portrayals of Winston Churchill, the British admirals Fisher, Jellicoe, and Beatty, and the Germans Scheer, Hipper, and Tirpitz are stunning in their veracity and artistry. Castles of Steel is about war at sea, leadership and command, courage, genius, and folly. All these elements are given magnificent scope by Robert K. Massie's special and widely hailed literary mastery.

'An invaluable, refreshing return to the essentials of marketing - a great and useful read' Sophie Devonshire, CEO of The Marketing Society Whether you're in a huge business, a start-up or have a side-hustle, marketing matters. 'Strength of brand/marketing' is most frequently cited by business analysts (at 79%) as critical to a firm's success. But marketing is in a state of chaos. Most people with marketing in their job title have never studied it. Meanwhile, in too many media posts and agencies, pseudo-experts cherry-pick opinions and peddle marketing misinformation to give a snake-oil pitch that marketing is all about keeping up with change. Grasping marketing shouldn't induce scepticism, fear or confusion. Mark Palmer acts as your trusted and experienced guide, demystifying the jargon, cutting through the clutter and helping you navigate your own refreshing journey towards what smarter and better marketing can be. The 'Work Smarter' series provides shortcuts, tips and life-hacks for the development of essential business skills. The books bring together accomplished industry experts who have learned their trades at the coalface. They teach the skills ambitious businesspeople need in order to tip the playing field in their favour.
