L'immagine delle Aule parlamentari, in cui avvengono i confronti - o spesso gli scontri - fra maggioranza e opposizione per decidere il futuro del nostro paese, è certo familiare a ogni cittadino. Non molti, invece, possono affermare di sapere con chiarezza come funzioni il sistema politico italiano e cosa accada realmente nei palazzi del potere.

Story
" ... Un cadeau empoisonné ? C’est un peu la définition du succès, ça. C’est beau, c’est bien, mais si tu finis par y croire, si tu penses que tu es le meilleur, tes chances s’évaporent, et tu es mort. On me caressait dans le sens du poil, tout le monde me disait oui pour tout, j’aurais pu sombrer. Parfois, je ne voulais plus entendre tout ça, c’était trop. Ça sentait le piège. Prendre l’air, c’était la solution. " Omar Sy. Acteur emblématique du film mythique Intouchables, Omar Sy a depuis enchaîné les succès au cinéma, sur les plateformes, en France comme aux États-Unis.

Nel 2016 Dion Leonard, un esperto ultramaratoneta, incontra inaspettatamente una piccola cagnolina randagia durante una gara di 250 chilometri attraverso il deserto dei Gobi, in Cina. La cucciola, che sarà ribattezzata Gobi, dimostra che quello che le manca nella taglia è ampiamente ricompensato dalla grandezza del suo cuore: comincia a seguire Dion passo dopo passo, attraverso le impervie montagne Tian Shan, mantenendo il passo con lui per circa 130 chilometri. Quando Dion si rende conto dell'incredibile determinazione di questo piccolo animale, qualcosa dentro di lui cambia per sempre.

Milena Busquets practica en estos diarios una escritura de pinceladas impresionistas y logra que de lo cotidiano, de lo en apariencia anodino, emerja la epifanía. Este es un diario sobre días tristes y días felices −"La euforia y la felicidad absolutas están a un milímetro del ataque de pánico"−, escrito sin trampa ni cartón, sin falsos pudores, ni engolada pompa. Escrito siguiendo esta premisa: "Uno escribe solo ante el peligro, no hay otra manera honesta de hacerlo, el menor atisbo de autocomplacencia es una señal de cobardía.

The pieces in this collection are characterised by an incorrigible sense of humour and an eye for ordinary - and most often unnoticed - details that are so essential to the geographic, social and cultural fabric of a place.

Every obligation met, all accounts squared up, each meal cooked to satiate the tongue and heart—Amma never rested, not even when bedridden with Parkinson’s. She lived a farmer’s life and died a farmer’s death.

Failures and losses are part of the game. Much more than just anecdotal diversion, these stories set the basis for the book's critical focus: learning from mistakes.

Gene Machine is an insider account of the race for the structure of the ribosome, a fundamental discovery that both advances our knowledge of all life and could lead to the development of better antibiotics against life-threatening diseases.

Story
The grass isn't greener on the other side: Heiresses have always been viewed with eyes of envy. They were the ones for whom the cornucopia had been upended, showering them with unimaginable wealth and opportunity. However, through intimate historical biographies, Women of Means shows us that oftentimes the weaving sisters saved their most heart-wrenching tapestries for the destinies of wealthy women. Women of Means is bound to be a non-fiction best seller, full of the best biographies of all time.
