Nerve
Adventures in the Science of Fear
Eva Holland - 2020-04-14
Calificación de Goodreads
Eva Holland's Nerve is a gripping exploration of the science of fear and the universal human experience of confronting it. After her mother's sudden death, Holland dives headfirst into studying fear and uses herself as a test subject by facing her deepest anxieties. She investigates the latest research and meets with experts who are developing a drug to erase traumatic memories. A mix of Mary Roach and Cheryl Strayed, Nerve delves into the emotions that define us as human beings and asks the question: can we cure our deepest fears?

La otra historia de los Estados Unidos book cover
La otra historia de los Estados Unidos
Howard Zinn - 1995-01-01 (publicado por primera vez en 1980)
Calificación de Goodreads
La obra de Howard Zinn ha inspirado a estudiantes y activistas de todas las edades, afirmando que la gente tiene el poder de cambiar la historia. En La otra historia de los Estados Unidos, la version definitiva en español del clásico de Zinn La historia del pueblo de los Estados Unidos, Zinn asume la narrativa típica de la historia americana y nos muestra la mentira que se esconde detrás de la historia "oficial" -- revelando a Cristóbal Colón no como descubridor sino como asesino; los fundadores de la nación norteamericana no como liberadores sino como la fundación de una nueva elite adinerada -- y a la vez aboga por héroes americanos alternativos, desde Bartolomeo de las Casas hasta Tecumseh y César Chávez, quienes desafiaron el poder norteamericano imperialista y vencieron. Actualizado y ampliado incluyendo la presidencia de Bush, La otra historia de los Estados Unidos nos vuelve a recordar que la grandeza verdadera de America se encuentra no en los generales militares, sino en sus voces disidentes.
