Historia
In 1989, Ben Spencer, a twenty-two-year-old Black man from Dallas, was convicted of murdering white businessman Jeffrey Young—a crime he didn’t commit. From the day of his arrest, Spencer insisted that it was “an awful mistake.” The Texas legal system didn’t see it that way. It allowed shoddy police work, paid witnesses, and prosecutorial misconduct to convict Spencer of murder, and it ignored later efforts to correct this error. The state’s bureaucratic intransigence caused Spencer to spend more than half his life in prison.

Historia
Así no es desmitifica conceptos equivocados y devela verdades incómodas que demasiados mexicanos creen, pero que son falsas. Ideas que asumimos sobre meritocracia, clase media, clasismo, salarios e impuestos, pero que son escandalosamente erradas. Burdas mentiras que sirven para justificar las más grandes injusticias de México.

In Left Behind, Collier examines how the assumption that any impoverished area will find a way to progress through market forces has devastated nations all over the world. With keen insight, he draws lessons from such disparate fields as behavioral psychology, evolutionary biology, and moral philosophy to explain how we can adapt to the needs of individual economies in order to build a brighter and fairer global future.

Historia
Written by former Tax Foundation CEO Scott Hodge, Taxocracy: What You Don't Know About Taxes and How They Rule Your Daily Life uses amusing lessons from past tax policies gone wrong to explore how the US tax code caused serious consequences, affecting how we get our health insurance, the price of a college education, what car we buy, where we bank, and, in some cases, even when we die. Taxocracy outlines economic principles for designing a tax code that doesn't rule our daily lives—a tax code that promotes economic growth, free-enterprise, and takes the politics out of tax policy.

Historia
Dai tempi delle guerre persiane, Oriente e Occidente sono fratelli coltelli, amici e nemici, sogno e incubo. "L’Oriente è l’Oriente, l’Occidente è l’Occidente: e nessuno potrà mai accordarli", dichiara Rudyard Kipling al tempo della fondazione dell’impero britannico d’India. Sulla base dei troppi malintesi generati dal loro confronto sono emersi anche "ismi" ideologici, tanto accaniti tra loro quanto ambigui: orientalismo e occidentalismo, avvolti nel dilatare delle loro contraddizioni. Già Oswald Spengler aveva decretato il "tramonto dell’Occidente".

It is natural for us to fear artificial intelligence. But does Siri really want to kill us? Perhaps we are falling into the trap of projecting human traits onto the machines we might build. In Evolutionary Intelligence, Neuman offers a surprisingly positive vision in which computational intelligence compensates for the well-recognized limits of human judgment, improves decision making, and actually increases our agency. Neuman takes the listener on an exciting, fast-paced ride, all the while making a convincing case about a revolution in computationally augmented human intelligence.

Alla fine degli anni Sessanta, Italia, Francia, Germania occidentale e Gran Bretagna – Paesi già colpiti dal terrorismo interno – si trovarono a far fronte a una nuova minaccia: le organizzazioni armate, nate in Medio Oriente, che internazionalizzarono la propria lotta, esportando il terrorismo in Europa. Raggiunsero il loro obiettivo? Generarono il caos internazionale? O invece i Paesi europei riuscirono, almeno temporaneamente, a disarmare i terroristi, includendoli nel sistema delle relazioni internazionali?

En los cuatro años transcurridos desde Manual de resistencia, Pedro Sánchez ha formado el primer Gobierno de coalición de la historia reciente de España, ha liderado el país durante una pandemia, una guerra en Ucrania y sus consecuencias económicas en toda Europa, y ha lidiado con otras muchas crisis, como la erupción de un volcán en La Palma. Pese a todas las dificultades, en esta pasada legislatura se han sentado las bases de grandes transformaciones, con el medio ambiente, la lucha contra la desigualdad y la transición digital como ejes principales.

Bright Green Lies exposes the hypocrisy and bankruptcy of leading environmental groups and their most prominent cheerleaders. The best-known environmentalists are not in the business of speaking truth, or even holding up rational solutions to blunt the impending ecocide, but instead indulge in a mendacious and self-serving delusion that provides comfort at the expense of reality. They fail to state the obvious: We cannot continue to wallow in hedonistic consumption and industrial expansion and survive as a species.

Drawing on 75 years of Gallup studies and his own perspective as the company's chairman and CEO, Jim Clifton explains why jobs are the new global currency for leaders. More than peace or money or any other good, the business, government, military, city, and village leaders who can create good jobs will own the future. The problem is that leaders don't know how to create jobs, especially in America. What they should do is recognize that the world is in a war for jobs. It seems that leadership has lost the will to win, especially in America, but this is a competition for our lives.

Few at the founding could have ever imagined the Supreme Court becoming one of the most powerful policymaking institutions in the United States. Yet today, the Court has the power to sidestep public opinion, upend federal legislation, constrain state governance and even bring down the president. Professor Alison Gash will take us back to the Court's humble beginnings, charting how the Court amassed its power under Justice Marshall's leadership.
