El hilo dorado que recorre este estimulante nuevo libro es el desafío de mantener nuestro enfoque colectivo e individual frente al constante y desorientador cambio que estamos viviendo. ¿Somos aún capaces de entender el mundo que hemos creado? Reseñas:«Me maravilló la manera en la que Yuval Noah Harari indagó en el pasado de nuestra especie en Sapiens, al igual que lo hicieron sus predicciones para el futuro con Homo Deus. Pero su cautivadora narrativa y sus fascinantes análisis de la actualidad en 21 lecciones para el siglo XXI dan absolutamente en el clavo.»Sir Richard Branson «El formato del libro contribuye al gancho comercial de Harari, que es ni más ni menos que la ambición y la gran amplitud de su obra, en la que reúne ideas que uno no se espera pero que se traducen en observaciones brillantes.»Helen Lewis, The Guardian «Este libro es un testimonio a su genialidad, con un gran potencial para atrapar a las mentes curiosas.»Moises Naim, The Washington Post «No es importante que en este libro Harari sea más discursivo y tangencial que en sus anteriores obras por la sencilla razón de que se muestra igualmente inteligente, cautivador, cultivado e instructivo.»Fintan O'Toole, The Irish Times «Harari entabla en esta obra, tan cautivadora como irrebatible, la conversación definitiva sobre cómo abordar a escala global los problemas del siglo XXI.»Bill Gates, The New York Times «El gran pensador de nuestra era.»The Times «Estimulante a más no poder y de una actualidad rabiosa.

21 leyes del liderazgo en la Biblia: Aprenda a liderar de los hombres y mujeres de las Escrituras
by John C. Maxwell«Todo lo que sé sobre el liderazgo lo aprendí de la Biblia».Cuando el autor best seller John C. Maxwell comenzó a enseñar liderazgo a personas en la iglesia, a menudo se sorprendieron. Era obvio que era joven e inexperto, pero las ideas que transmitía parecían ir más allá de lo que debería saber. Más tarde, cuando comenzó a hablar a un público más general, la gente preguntó: «¿Dónde aprendió usted todo esto?».John estaba feliz de contarles su secreto: todo lo que sabía sobre el liderazgo lo aprendió de la Biblia. La Biblia no solo es el mejor libro jamás escrito, sino que es el mejor libro sobre el liderazgo jamás escrito. Todo lo que pueda desear aprender sobre el liderazgo (visión, propósito, estrategia, comunicación, actitud, aliento, mentoría, seguimiento) se puede encontrar en las páginas de la Palabra de Dios.En este estudio de veintiuna lecciones, John lo guía a través de las mismas escrituras fundamentales que han formado la base del trabajo de su vida. Cada lección incluye:• La definición de la ley: una breve descripción e introducción a la ley.• Estudios de casos: tres estudios bíblicos, incluyendo líderes como Moisés, Josué, David, Elías, Ester, María, Pablo y Jesús, que revelan e ilustran la ley.• Preguntas de estudio: preguntas de reflexión y aplicación para ayudarlo a profundizar en las historias de los hombres y mujeres en las Escrituras y aprender de ellas.• Perspicacia y reflexión del liderazgo: preguntas para ayudarlo a evaluar y mejorar sus propias habilidades de liderazgo.• Cómo llevar a la acción: lecciones prácticas y orientación para ayudarlo a incorporar cada lección en su vida diaria.• Preguntas de discusión en grupo: preguntas para ayudarlo a aprender y procesar el material de estudio de la Biblia con otras personas de ideas afines que desean crecer en liderazgo.• El liderazgo es para todos, porque cada persona que acepta a Cristo está llamada a influir en los demás. Así que aprenda de los mejores líderes que han vivido: los hombres y las mujeres en la Biblia.

21 | 19: Contemporary Poets in the Nineteenth-Century Archive
by Kristen Case and Alexandra ManglisEssays on the modern relevance of Thoreau, Whitman, Dickinson, and more “suggest the ways poetry might be both agitator and balm in times of social crisis” (Poets & Writers).The nineteenth century is often viewed as a golden age of American literature, a historical moment when national identity was emergent and ideals such as freedom, democracy, and individual agency were promising, even if belied in reality by violence and hypocrisy. The writers of this “American Renaissance”—Thoreau, Fuller, Whitman, Emerson, and Dickinson, among many others—produced a body of work that has been both celebrated and contested by following generations.As the twenty-first century unfolds in a United States characterized by deep divisions, diminished democracy, and dramatic transformation of identities, the editors of this singular book approached a dozen North American poets, asking them to engage with texts by their predecessors in a manner that avoids both aloofness from the past and too-easy elegy. The resulting essays, delving into topics including race and gun violence, dwell provocatively on the border between the lyrical and the scholarly, casting fresh critical light on the golden age of American literature and exploring a handful of texts not commonly included in its canon. A polyvocal collection that reflects the complexity of the cross-temporal encounter it enacts, 21 | 19 offers a re-reading of the “American Renaissance” and new possibilities for imaginative critical practice today.“Displaying a sophisticated sense of poetics as well as a good grasp of history and its implications for the present moment . . . [the editors] have done a remarkable job of bringing together such a challenging collection.” —Harvard Review

21-Hit Wonder: Flopping My Way to the Top of the Charts
by Sam HollanderRising up the charts seemed, at many points in Sam Hollander&’s career, highly unlikely. This is his story of failing his way to the top. As one of the most renowned, multi-platinum songwriters and producers in the game, Sam Hollander has written and produced for the likes of Panic! At The Disco, One Direction, Katy Perry, Ringo Starr, Def Leppard, Carole King, Weezer, blink-182, Jewel, Train, Fitz and the Tantrums, Billy Idol, Tom Morello, and many others. But before he was stacking Billboard hits, Hollander was piling up calamitous flops, false starts, and feeling like the world was moving on and up without him while he spun in place. Today he wears that decade of misses like a badge of honor. In 21-Hit Wonder, he&’s collected anecdotes from his wild music industry rollercoaster ride to help aspiring songwriters and other creatives learn about survival, endurance, scheming, hustle, and the importance of laughing even on the worst days of the journey. Music lovers spanning generations and genres will find stories about many of their heroes and industry icons. 21-Hit Wonder is one part chronicle of a songwriter&’s storied career and another part love letter to anyone who has been counted out—from no-hit wonders and one-hit wonders to the novelties and the never-beens—and just needs a bit of inspiration to persevere. Sam&’s inspiring story is proof that setbacks are just steps on the road to success.
