“…Grounded in the sense that we are deeply dependent and interconnected beings who are rooted in the universe, nature, history, society, and the global economy, Living Without God explores the experience and issues of 21st-century secularists, especially in America. Reflecting on such perplexing questions as why we are grateful for life's gifts, who or what is responsible for inequalities, and how to live in the face of aging and dying, Living Without God is also refreshingly topical, touching on such subjects as contemporary terrorism, the war in Iraq, affirmative action, and the remarkable rise of Barack Obama. …”

“…The establishment of extensive colonies and protectorates in Africa, the occupation of Egypt, the declaration of the Raj in India, and increased economic and political intervention in Latin America and in the Chinese and Ottoman empires brought ever-larger numbers of non-European peoples and cultures under either the influence or direct authority of the British Crown. …”

“…La química creativa de cuatro artistas geniales hizo de The Doors una de las bandas rockeras más representativas e influyentes de América. Utilizando metraje rodado entre la formación del grupo en 1965 y la muerte de Morrison en 1971, la película les sigue los pasos desde los pasillos de la escuela de cine de UCLA, donde Mazarek y Morrison se conocieron, a la etapa de los estadios…”

“…When U.S. forces exterminated Osama bin Laden in Pakistan on May 1, 2011, the world cheered not only the death of the 9/11 terrorist mastermind but the unmatched might, skill, and perseverance of America’s military elite. It was a brilliant example of history repeating itself in the most positive way; less than a decade earlier, the capture of Saddam Hussein, a triumph of military strategy in and of itself, opened the door for the most recent and essential victory in the War on Terror. …”

“…Santorum demonstrates how such an approach to political, social, and economic problems offers the most promise for those on the margin of life: the poor, the vulnerable, and minorities who have often been excluded from opportunity in America. Building on Robert Putnam's discussion of "social capital," the habits of association and trust that are the preconditions of any decent society, Santorum assesses how well Americans have cared for the "fabric" of society. …”

“…Yes, to follow world events you need to understand people, ideas and movements - but if you don't know geography, you'll never have the full picture.If you've ever wondered why Putin is so obsessed with Crimea, why the USA was destined to become a global superpower, or why China's power base continues to expand ever outwards, the answers are all here.In ten chapters (covering Russia; China; the USA; Latin America; the Middle East; Africa; India and Pakistan; Europe; Japan and Korea; and the Arctic), using maps, essays and occasionally the personal experiences of the widely travelled author, Prisoners of Geography looks at the past, present and future to offer an essential insight into one of the major factors that determines world history.It's time to put the 'geo' back into geopolitics…”

“…Presentación editorial: "Ringrose plantea una tesis novedosa y no exenta de polémica sobre el relato de la expansión europea que se inicia con la colonización de África y América. Huyendo de las historias deudoras de los nacionalismos de los siglos XIX y XX, Ringrose pone de relieve que la expansión no fue tanto una exitosa campaña de colonización militar y religiosa, una demostración de poder, como un proceso de establecimiento de un nuevo sistema mundial de comercio, en el que los europeos no eran precisamente la fuerza mayor."…”

“…Presentación del editor: "Lo que mas me agrada de este libro no solo es que salga publicado en Chile y en una novel y pujante editorial, sino que incorpore en su título el concepto de "derecho procesal constitucional" que es quizá la gran aportación de nuestra América a la defensa de la Constitución. Nombre que me parece mucho más ajustado que el de justicia constitucional que se sigue usando todavía en forma mimética y que considero como de carácter pre-científico (pues es lo mismo que hablar de justicia civil o justicia penal) y más técnico que el de "jurisdicción constitucional", que por lo menos es más ajustado y se entiende perfectamente."…”

“…Aimed at providing a comprehensive understanding of comparative political communication, this volume analyzes the media systems of Europe and America. It considers whether election campaigns around the world have become "Americanized," how international news journalists understand their jobs and produce different forms of television news programs, and how governmental media relations and news management efforts evolve in different political systems. …”
