Conversacion en Princeton
Universidad de Princeton, Nueva Jersey, 2015. Durante un semestre, Mario Vargas Llosa impartió junto a Rubén Gallo un curso sobre literatura y política. Ambos conversaron con los alumnos sobre teoría de la novela, y sobre la relación del periodismo y la política con la literatura, a través de cinco obras del autor: Conversación en La Catedral, Historia de Mayta, ¿Quién mató a Palomino Molero?, El pez en el agua y La Fiesta del Chivo.En estas conversaciones, el Nobel, con su brillantez acostumbrada, habla del oficio de escritor y de los retos a los que se enfrenta en la construcción de sus novelas, pero también ofrece un análisis inteligente de la actualidad. Es especialmente conmovedora la charla con Philippe Lançon, periodista del Charlie Hebdo que sobrevivió al atentado islamista perpetrado ese mismo año.Tres perspectivas complementarias confluyen en este libro: la del autor, que desvela el proceso creativo de sus novelas; la de Rubén Gallo, que analiza las distintas significaciones que las obras de Vargas Llosa cobran en el momento de su difusión, y la de los alumnos, que con sus reflexiones y preguntas dan voz a los millones de lectores de Vargas Llosa.

Cinema Speculation
El tan esperado primer trabajo de no ficción del autor del éxito de ventas número 1 del New York Times Érase una vez en Hollywood: un libro de cine delirantemente entretenido y perversamente inteligente tan único y creativo como cualquier cosa de Quentin Tarantino.

Además de estar entre los cineastas contemporáneos más célebres, Quentin Tarantino es posiblemente el cinéfilo vivo más alegremente contagioso. Durante años, ha promocionado en entrevistas su eventual turno de escribir libros sobre películas. Ahora, con Cinema Speculation, ha llegado el momento, y los resultados son todo lo que sus apasionados fanáticos, y todos los amantes del cine, podrían haber esperado. Organizado en torno a películas estadounidenses clave de la década de 1970, todas las cuales vio por primera vez cuando era un joven cinéfilo en ese momento, este libro es tan intelectualmente riguroso y perspicaz como divertido y entretenido. A la vez crítica cinematográfica, teoría cinematográfica, una hazaña de reportajes y una maravillosa historia personal, todo está escrito con una voz singular reconocible inmediatamente como la de QT y con la rara perspectiva sobre el cine posible solo desde uno de los más grandes practicantes de la forma de arte de todos los tiempos.

Chomsky & Mujica: Sobreviviendo al siglo XXI
Dos referentes mundiales del pensamiento contemporáneo se reúnen en este libro para conversar acerca de temas trascendentales que afectan a la humanidady debatir alternativas de cara al futuro. Por un lado, José Pepe Mujica, un expresidente y exguerrillero que ha logrado una enorme popularidad internacional por su mensaje de austeridad, sabiduría y sentido común. Por otro lado, Noam Chomsky, el intelectual que revolucionó la lingüística para luego abordar una amplia gama de temas humanísticos y filosóficos de profunda actualidad. El documentalista mexicano Saúl Alvídrez logró reunirlos y generar el clima propicio para el intercambio fecundo de ideas.

Del encuentro de estas voces surgen reflexiones que permiten un acercamiento a los grandes temas que el mundo actual está afrontando: las consecuencias del cambio climático, los males de la política, la corrupción, los populismos, la crisis del capitalismo y sus sucesivas mutaciones, la lógica de la economía de mercado y los problemas de la producción, entre muchos otros.

Career Forward
At a time when many long-held workplace structures and beliefs are changing, Career Forward is a beacon for women aspiring to achieve success and satisfaction in rewarding careers. Drawing on decades of experience reaching the top of Fortune 500 companies, Grace Puma and Christiana Smith Shi show women how to maximize their career journeys, get paid what they’re worth, navigate the shifts that occur in any company, build a leadership identity, and have a full life in and out of work.

The authors challenge negative stereotypes about female ambition, and urge women to be bold, follow their dreams, and seize the chance to lead “big” lives. The secret is to focus on career first, job second. Instead of chasing a better job title or a salary bump, the goal should be a long-range career path that leads to success. “Career forward” means keeping a focus on the future and recognizing that being good at your job is often not enough—that you should take every opportunity to boost your connections, take on “difficult” assignments, and work actively to broaden your skills.

Packed with personal anecdotes and wisdom from women who’ve been there, and featuring quizzes and checklists for self-evaluation, Career Forward provides a wealth of valuable lessons, including the value of thinking of yourself as a “growth stock” and, instead of chasing the elusive work-life balance, living a well-rounded 360-degree life that fully embraces both. Offering a refreshing response to anyone who wonders whether working hard is really worth it, Puma and Smith Shi’s emphatic answer is “yes,” because by correctly following the blueprint in Career Forward, the rewards will far outweigh the effort.

Blue ocean strategy

The global phenomenon that has sold over 4 million copies, is published in a record-breaking 47 languages and is a bestseller across five continents—now updated and expanded with new content. Named by Fast Company as one of the most influential leadership books in its Leadership Hall of Fame. A strategy classic.

Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne challenge everything you thought you knew about the requirements for strategic success.

Beyond order
The companion volume to 12 Rules for Life offers further guidance on the perilous path of modern life.

In 12 Rules for Life, clinical psychologist and celebrated professor at Harvard and the University of Toronto Dr. Jordan B. Peterson helped millions of readers impose order on the chaos of their lives. Now, in this bold sequel, Peterson delivers twelve more lifesaving principles for resisting the exhausting toll that our desire to order the world inevitably takes.

In a time when the human will increasingly imposes itself over every sphere of life—from our social structures to our emotional states—Peterson warns that too much security is dangerous. What’s more, he offers strategies for overcoming the cultural, scientific, and psychological forces causing us to tend toward tyranny, and teaches us how to rely instead on our instinct to find meaning and purpose, even—and especially—when we find ourselves powerless.

While chaos, in excess, threatens us with instability and anxiety, unchecked order can petrify us into submission. Beyond Order provides a call to balance these two fundamental principles of reality itself, and guides us along the straight and narrow path that divides them.

Beyond Disruption
Blue Ocean Strategy, the #1 global bestseller, forever changed how the world thinks about strategy. Now W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne offer up a bold, new idea that will transform how we all think about innovation and growth.

Disruption dominates innovation theory and practice. But disruption, for all its power, is destructive—displacing jobs, companies, and even entire industries. Are we missing an alternative approach to innovation and growth?

With three decades of research, the #1 global bestselling authors of Blue Ocean Strategy, W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne, reveal another way to innovate and grow. Just as Blue Ocean Strategy redefined the essence of strategy as creating not competing, Beyond Disruption redefines and expands the existing view of innovation by introducing a new approach, nondisruptive creation, that is free from the destructive displacement that happens when innovators set out to disrupt.
