Ahora, con un nuevo introducción y epílogo por la vigésima edición de aniversarioNo hay duda de que Yolanda Saldívar disparó la bala que mató a Selena el 31 de Marzo de 1995, pero ¿alguien sabe lo que realmente sucedió en la habitación 158 del hotel Days Inn, momentos antes de que el crimen se llevara a cabo? María Celeste Arrarás tiene muchas respuestas. Su cobertura de la muerte, el juicio y el drama detrás de la tragedia la convirtió en la experta indiscutible del caso de Selena.

María Celeste le ha seguido la pista al caso durante dos décadas y logro encajar las piezas de este rompecabezas. El secreto de Selena revela lo que realmente sucedió aquel lluvioso día de marzo.
Los secretos de las marcas: Una guía de branding para gente que no sabe qué es el branding
by Fernando de Córdoba«Un libro muy documentado pero al mismo tiempo ameno, cuando no directamente descacharrante, como en algunas notas a pie de página», Pepe Cruz Novillo Jr. Descubre por qué las marcas son tan importantes e influyen nuestras vidas de las formas más variadas, y cómo consiguen que nos veamos (a nosotros mismos, a los demás y al mundo que nos rodea), actuemos y consumamos de una determinada manera. ¿Cómo se crean?, ¿por qué las hay tan parecidas y tan diferentes?, ¿por qué nos identificamos con ellas?, ¿por qué mueren y, algunas, resucitan?, ¿quién decide sus nombres?, ¿cuándo se diseña el logo? En Los secretos de las marcas, Fernando de Córdoba nos desvela los aspectos más relevantes que rodean el nacimiento y desarrollo de las marcas, y cómo estas pueden hacer que nos sintamos más creativos, mejor integrados en un grupo o que un refresco nos sepa especialmente bien. Porque una marca es mucho más que un logo: es todo un conjunto de asociaciones. Queramos o no, nos guste o no, las marcas forman parte de nuestra cultura y de la sociedad, y guardan un montón de historias curiosas, anécdotas y significados ocultos. Son, en definitiva, el encuentro cautivador entre diseño, psicología, filosofía y economía.

He's off to a poor start what with a corpse in the sanctuary, his gun stolen, his congregation in open rebellion, and the local law breathing down his neck. Then the Vicar's secretary, Millicent Bass, an incorrigible gossip and snoop, follows Waldo to an early grave.For Sheriff Ike Schwartz, two murders and the unexplained presence of the FBI in his town wreak havoc with keeping the peace.

The Secrets Of Nostradamus: The Medieval Code of the Master Revealed in the Age of Computer Science
by David OvasonWalker argues that previous translations have got it wrong, because they have failed to realise that Nostradamus was writing in an esoteric language called the 'green language'. Where previous translations have seemed to stretch a point to make a quotation fit an historical event, Walker reveals the prophet's true prophecies regarding the American and French revolutions, the Franco-Prussian, First, Second, and Third world wars, earthquakes, floods, the Anitchrist and the end of the world. Properly seen, Walker argues, Nostradamus is the greatest Western prophet to commit his prophecies to writing since the Old Testament.
Secrets Of The People Whisperer: Using the art of communication to enhance your own life, and the lives of others
by Perry WoodIn 1990 Perry Wood shelved his music career to breed, break in and train horses. 'All my work with horses,' he says, 'has been about exploring deeper communication, learning to understand and influence another being for the mutual benefit of both parties. As time went on I realised that more communication was happening below the surface than people normally noticed. I started to apply these observations to the people who came to me to learn, at which point it was suggested that what I was doing with the horses and people would be transformational if it was brought into corporations.' He was right, it is! 'What I bring to this work is not only my learning from years of horse whispering and people-training but also the non-judgemental spiritual essence of unconditional love that is present in everything.'In Secrets of the People Whisperer, Perry Wood shows with unique simplicity how to listen to yourself, how to listen to others and - once you've mastered these skills - how to set goals and turn your life into a stunning success story.
