The 5 Practices of Highly Resilient People
Resilience is categorically misunderstood. It’s not merely about bouncing back, and it’s so much more than returning to where you began. True resilient “doing” allows us to capitalize on the inescapable challenges of life and become better than we were before.

Dr. Taryn Marie Stejskal began working with brain injury patients and found that most popular beliefs about human resilience are incorrect. Since then, for the last 20 years, she has conducted qualitative research on the power of resilience, studying the science behind why some people succeed while others fail. Here, Dr. Taryn Marie outlines the five critical behaviors that define successful resilience: Vulnerability, Productive Perseverance, Connection, Gratiosity (Gratitude and Generosity), and Possibility. Resilient People bounce forward, take an active approach to facing challenges, and most importantly, they are made, not born.

Dr. Taryn Marie’s empirically proven framework shows us how to develop resilience practices in our own lives—as adults, as parents, and across organizations—in a manner that allows us to be enhanced by our experiences, not diminished.

The Cloisters
When Ann Stilwell arrives in New York City, she expects to spend her summer working as a curatorial associate at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Instead, she finds herself assigned to The Cloisters, a gothic museum and garden renowned for its medieval art collection and its group of enigmatic researchers studying the history of divination.

Desperate to escape her painful past, Ann is happy to indulge the researchers’ more outlandish theories about the history of fortune telling. But what begins as academic curiosity quickly turns into obsession when Ann discovers a hidden 15th-century deck of tarot cards that might hold the key to predicting the future. When the dangerous game of power, seduction, and ambition at The Cloisters turns deadly, Ann becomes locked in a race for answers as the line between the arcane and the modern blurs.

A haunting and magical blend of genres, The Cloisters is a gripping debut that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The hacienda
Mexican Gothic meets Rebecca in this debut supernatural suspense novel, set in the aftermath of the Mexican War of Independence, about a remote house, a sinister haunting, and the woman pulled into their clutches...

During the overthrow of the Mexican government, Beatriz’s father was executed and her home destroyed. When handsome Don Rodolfo Solórzano proposes, Beatriz ignores the rumors surrounding his first wife’s sudden demise, choosing instead to seize the security that his estate in the countryside provides. She will have her own home again, no matter the cost.

But Hacienda San Isidro is not the sanctuary she imagined.

When Rodolfo returns to work in the capital, visions and voices invade Beatriz’s sleep. The weight of invisible eyes follows her every move. Rodolfo’s sister, Juana, scoffs at Beatriz’s fears—but why does she refuse to enter the house at night? Why does the cook burn copal incense at the edge of the kitchen and mark the doorway with strange symbols? What really happened to the first Doña Solórzano?

Beatriz only knows two things for certain: Something is wrong with the hacienda. And no one there will save her.

Desperate for help, she clings to the young priest, Padre Andrés, as an ally. No ordinary priest, Andrés will have to rely on his skills as a witch to fight off the malevolent presence haunting the hacienda and protect the woman for whom he feels a powerful, forbidden attraction. But even he might not be enough to battle the darkness.

Far from a refuge, San Isidro may be Beatriz’s doom.

The unexpected spy
A highly entertaining account of a young woman who went straight from her college sorority to the CIA, where she hunted terrorists and WMDs

"A thrilling tale...Walder’s fast-paced and intense narrative opens a window into life in two of America’s major intelligence agencies." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

When Tracy Walder enrolled at the University of Southern California, she never thought that one day she would offer her pink beanbag chair in the Delta Gamma house to a CIA recruiter, or that she’d fly to the Middle East under an alias identity.

The Unexpected Spy is the riveting story of Walder's tenure in the CIA and, later, the FBI. In high-security, steel-walled rooms in Virginia, Walder watched al-Qaeda members with drones as President Bush looked over her shoulder and CIA Director George Tenet brought her donuts. She tracked chemical terrorists and searched the world for weapons of mass destruction. She created a chemical terror chart that someone in the White House altered to convey information she did not have or believe, leading to the Iraq invasion. Driven to stop terrorism, Walder debriefed terrorists - men who swore they’d never speak to a woman - until they gave her leads. She followed trails through North Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, shutting down multiple chemical attacks.

Then Walder moved to the FBI, where she worked in counterintelligence. In a single year, she helped take down one of the most notorious foreign spies ever caught on American soil. Catching the bad guys wasn’t a problem in the FBI, but rampant sexism was. Walder left the FBI to teach young women, encouraging them to find a place in the FBI, CIA, State Department or the Senate - and thus change the world.

Rusia
Tras el colapso del imperio zarista, entre 1917 y 1921 tuvo lugar en Rusia una lucha devastadora: una incompatible alianza blanca de socialistas moderados y monárquicos reaccionarios tenía pocas posibilidades contra el Ejército Rojo de Trotsky y la dictadura comunista de Lenin. El terror engendró el terror, que a su vez condujo a una crueldad aún mayor sobre hombres, mujeres y niños. La lucha se convirtió en una guerra mundial por delegación, ya que Churchill desplegó armamento y tropas del imperio británico, mientras las fuerzas armadas de Estados Unidos, Francia, Italia, Japón, Polonia y Checoslovaquia desempeñaron papeles rivales.

Utilizando los estudios más actualizados y la investigación de archivos, Antony Beevor reúne la imagen completa en una narración apasionante que transmite el conflicto a través de los ojos de todos, desde el trabajador en las calles de Petrogrado hasta el oficial de caballería en el campo de batalla o la mujer médico en un hospital improvisado.

We Were Dreamers
In this honest, inspiring and relatable memoir, newly minted superhero Simu Liu chronicles his family's journey from China to the bright lights of Hollywood with razor-sharp wit and humor.

Simu's parents left him in the care of his grandparents, then brought him to Canada when he was four. Life as a Canuck, however, is not all that it was cracked up to be; Simu's new guardians lack the gentle touch of his grandparents, resulting in harsh words and hurt feelings. His parents, on the other hand, find their new son emotionally distant and difficult to relate to—although they are related by blood, they are separated by culture, language, and values.

How to Prevent the Next Pandemic
Before Bill Gates became an expert on climate science, he was known as one of the few who studied pandemics—how they start, how they spread, how they can be controlled.

How to Prevent the Next Pandemic is a clear and upbeat plan of what every country, every government leader and every individual can do in order to help prevent another pandemic, grounded in Bill's firsthand experience with the Gates Foundation's commitment to fighting COVID-19.

Todos los hombres deben morir
Se suponía que era imposible. Cuando George R. R. Martin creó la saga bestseller de novelas fantásticas titulada Canción de hielo y fuego, lo hizo con la idea de confinarla únicamente a los inmensos límites de su imaginación dada la dificultad que conllevaría el rodaje. Sin embargo, un par de guionistas primerizos, junto con HBO, lograron adaptar el épico relato de Martin y el resultado es de sobras conocido: muchos hemos visto las ocho temporadas de la serie que llegaron a continuación. Juego de tronos se erigió como el ojito derecho de la crítica y batió todos los récords de audiencia. Fue galardonada con 59 premios Emmy y la siguieron más de 44 millones de espectadores solo en Estados Unidos. A pesar del éxito, siempre bien documentado, todavía nos queda una historia por conocer sobre Juego de tronos: los entresijos de los trece años de lucha para sacar adelante este extraordinario fenómeno.

Durante el rodaje y antes de los sucesivos estrenos, todos y cada uno de los detalles de la serie estaban sometidos al más alto nivel de confidencialidad. Sin embargo, un periodista del Entertainment Weekly tuvo acceso privilegiado a los platós. Entrevistó en exclusiva a diversos miembros del equipo, desde los showrunners, los guionistas o el propio George R. R. Martin, hasta estrellas como Peter Dinklage, Emilia Clarke o Kit Harington, entre muchos otros.

En Todos los hombres deben morir, James Hibberd nos ofrece la historia oficial e íntegra de Juego de tronos. Desde la reunión inicial del equipo creativo hasta la puesta en escena del final de la serie, pasando por todas las épicas batallas que se libraron delante y detrás de las cámaras y que también se convirtieron en leyenda. Repleto de anécdotas sorprendentes, detalles jugosos del rodaje y datos reveladores sobre la trama, este volumen, avalado por HBO, harálas delicias de los fans de la serie, además de conmemorar una era excepcional e inolvidable de la historia del entretenimiento.

The Geek Way
In this "handbook for disruptors" (Eric Schmidt), The Geek Way reveals a new way to get big things done. It will change the way you think about work, teams, projects, and culture, and give you the insight and tools you need to harness our human superpowers of learning and cooperation.

What is “being geeky?” It’s being a perennially curious person, one who's not afraid to tackle hard problems and embrace unconventional solutions. McAfee shows how the geeks have created a new culture based around four norms: science, ownership, speed, and openness. The geek way seems odd at first. It's not deferential to experts, fond of planning and process, afraid of mistakes, or obsessed with "winning." But it explains everything from why Montessori babies turn out to be creative tinkerers to how newcomers are disrupting industry after industry (and still just getting started).

Surrender
Se trata de uno los artistas más icónicos de la música en todo el mundo y se han escrito miles y miles de páginas sobre su carrera; sin embargo, en Surrender, es ahora Bono quien se sienta ante la hoja en blanco para contarnos, por primera vez y en primera persona, los detalles de su formidable vida y las personas con las que la ha compartido.

Su indistinguible voz nos conduce en un recorrido que va desde su infancia en Dublín, pasando por la repentina muerte de su madre cuando tenía 14 años y el insólito camino que hubo de recorrer U2 para convertirse en uno de los grupos de rock más influyentes del planeta, hasta llegar a un examen de las más de dos décadas que ha dedicado al activismo, luchando contra el SIDA y la pobreza extrema.

La escritura de Bono, con la que ha realizado un ejercicio de autorreflexión honesta, no exenta de un saludable sentido del humor, logra abrir más el foco sobre su vida, así como sobre su familia, sus amigos y sus creencias, los cuales le han servido de apoyo, acicate y ejemplo durante todos estos años.

Spare
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

For Harry, this is that story at last.

Before losing his mother, twelve-year-old Prince Harry was known as the carefree one, the happy-go-lucky Spare to the more serious Heir. Grief changed everything. He struggled at school, struggled with anger, with loneliness—and, because he blamed the press for his mother’s death, he struggled to accept life in the spotlight.

At twenty-one, he joined the British Army. The discipline gave him structure, and two combat tours made him a hero at home. But he soon felt more lost than ever, suffering from post-traumatic stress and prone to crippling panic attacks. Above all, he couldn’t find true love.

Then he met Meghan. The world was swept away by the couple’s cinematic romance and rejoiced in their fairy-tale wedding. But from the beginning, Harry and Meghan were preyed upon by the press, subjected to waves of abuse, racism, and lies. Watching his wife suffer, their safety and mental health at risk, Harry saw no other way to prevent the tragedy of history repeating itself but to flee his mother country. Over the centuries, leaving the Royal Family was an act few had dared. The last to try, in fact, had been his mother. . . .

For the first time, Prince Harry tells his own story, chronicling his journey with raw, unflinching honesty. A landmark publication, Spare is full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.

El malestar en la globalizacion
El malestar en la globalización fue un éxito de ventas y provocó una gran polémica al denunciar la mala gestión de la globalización, causante de desajustes políticos y una desigualdad desenfrenada. El libro se convirtió en la piedra angular del debate sobre el tema al demostrar cómo el Fondo Monetario Internacional e instituciones como el Banco Mundial, así como los acuerdos comerciales globales, más que ayudar, perjudican a las naciones en desarrollo.

En esta importante ampliación y actualización de su exitoso best seller, Stiglitz aborda los nuevos malestares generados por la globalización. Desde la primera publicación las consecuencias de este fenómeno se han agudizado, rebasando el terreno de los países en desarrollo y dejando a su paso un rastro de ciudadanos descontentos en todo el mundo. Los mensajes poderosos y proféticos de Stiglitz están hoy más vigentes que nunca.

Frida Kahlo & Diego Rivera

Detrás de los retratos de Frida Kahlo se ocultan tanto la historia de su vida como la de su obra. Es precisamente esta combinación lo que cautiva al espectador. La obra de Frida es un testimonio de su vida. Pocas veces se puede aprender tanto acerca de un artista con sólo contemplar lo que inscribe dentro del marco de sus cuadros. Frida Kahlo es sin lugar a dudas la ofrenda de México a la historia del arte. La historia y las pinturas que Frida nos dejó revelar el valiente relato de una mujer en constante búsqueda de sí misma.
Al lado de Frida estuvo siempre el gran pintor y muralista mexicano Diego Rivera cuyos murales únicos hacen estallar las paredes en una explosión de representaciones de gran virtuosismo y su organización conmociona la mente del espectador. En esas paredes se juntan el hombre, su leyenda y sus mitos, su talento técnico, su intensa focalización sobre la narración de la Historia y sus convicciones ideológicas propensas a la auto-indulgencia.
