Psicología del color: Cómo actúan los colores sobre los sentimientos y la razón (Spanish Edition)
Eva Heller • 2015
Este libro aborda la relación de los colores con nuestros sentimientos y demuestra cómo ambos no se combinan de manera accidental, pues sus asociaciones no son meras cuestiones de gusto, sino experiencias universales que están profundamente enraizadas en nuestro lenguaje y en nuestro pensamiento. Organizado en 13 capítulos que corresponden a 13 colores distintos, el volumen poporciona una gran cantidad y variedad de información sobre los colores: desde dichos y saberes populares, hasta su utilización en el diseño de productos, los diferentes tests que se basan en colores, la curación por medio de ellos, la manipulación de las personas, los nombres y apellidos relacionados con colores, etc. La diversidad de este enfoque convierte a la obra de Eva Heller en una herramienta fundamental para todas aquellas personas que trabajan con colores: artistas, terapeutas, diseñadores gráficos e industriales, interioristas, arquitectos, diseñadores de moda, publicistas, entre otros.

Mi Lucha
Adolf Hitler · 2016
El carácter de autobiografía que tiene la obra aumenta su interés perfilando, a través de hechos realmente vividos, la recia personalidad del hombre a quien sus ciudadanos consagraron con el nombre único de FÜHRER. Si hasta antes del 30 de enero de 1933, fecha en que Hitler asumió el gobierno del Reich se consideraba a "Main Kampt" como el catecismo del movimiento nacionalsocialista en la larga lucha que éste sostuviera para llegar a imponerse. Estos antecedentes son de singular trascendencia en los anales de la historia europea de la postguerra, porque provienen de la figura contemporánea más discutida de Europa en cuanto a los verdaderos fines de su política, que significa la creación de una nueva forma de Estado y el triunfo de una nueva concepción de gobierno; aspectos, por cierto, de enorme interés para la ciencia de la política y para las enseñanzas que, adaptadas a sus propias necesidades, deduzcan los pueblos amantes de su nacionalidad.
Mi Vida Y Mi Carcel Con Pablo Escobar
Victoria Eugenia Henao · 2019
Cuando conoció a Pablo Escobar, con solo trece años, Victoria Eugenia Henao ignoraba que su vida estaba a punto de convertirse en una pesadilla terrible, y que jamás dejarían de señalarla con el dedo por ser la mujer con la que se casó y tuvo dos hijos el mayor narcotraficante de todos los tiempos. Para este libro, y durante dos años, la viuda de Escobar se ha sumergido en su memoria y ha recordado cada uno de los horribles episodios que vivió con quien, a partir de 1982, asoló a Colombia con una estrategia de terror en la que cabían asesinatos de políticos, periodistas y defensores de derechos humanos, mientras seguía inundando el mundo de cocaína. Nunca hasta ahora un testigo tan cercano de la vida de Escobar había examinado sus actuaciones en diversos frentes. ¿Cómo fue la guerra que lo enfrentó al cartel de Cali y al Estado colombiano? ¿Hasta qué punto se relacionó con los paramilitares? ¿Cómo vivió ella las continuas infidelidades de su marido? ¿De qué forma convirtió el arte en su vía de escape? ¿Cómo fueron los últimos años de Escobar, desde estuvo encerrado en La Catedral hasta su asesinato? Y sobre todo: ¿qué fue de su familia tras la muerte del narco? La viuda de Pablo Escobar cuenta su historia por primera vez.
Pablo Escobar, mi padre
Juan Pablo Escobar · 2019
De Pablo Escobar creíamos que se había dicho todo. El jefe del cartel de Medellín sigue siendo en el imaginario popular el narcotraficante por antonomasia, capaz de controlar gran parte de la cocaína que se consumía en Estados Unidos en los ochenta al tiempo que ponía en jaque a todo un país. Veintiún años después de su muerte, su hijo, Juan Pablo Escobar, escarba en sus recuerdos para mostrar en este libro una versión inédita de su padre, un hombre que podía llegar a los peores extremos de crueldad y a la vez profesar un amor infinito a su familia. Esta no es la historia de un hijo que busca la redención de su padre, sino un testimonio irrepetible de la cara oculta de uno de los criminales más poderosos del siglo XX.
Just Kids
Patti Smith · 2010
<p> It was the summer Coltrane died, the summer of love and riots, and the summer when a chance encounter in Brooklyn led two young people on a path of art, devotion, and initiation. </p> <p> Patti Smith would evolve as a poet and performer, and Robert Mapplethorpe would direct his highly provocative style toward photography. Bound in innocence and enthusiasm, they traversed the city from Coney Island to Forty-second Street, and eventually to the celebrated round table of Max's Kansas City, where the Andy Warhol contingent held court. In 1969, the pair set up camp at the Hotel Chelsea and soon entered a community of the famous and infamous—the influential artists of the day and the colorful fringe. It was a time of heightened awareness, when the worlds of poetry, rock and roll, art, and sexual politics were colliding and exploding. In this milieu, two kids made a pact to take care of each other. Scrappy, romantic, committed to create, and fueled by their mutual dreams and drives, they would prod and provide for one another during the hungry years. </p> <p> <i>Just Kids</i> begins as a love story and ends as an elegy. It serves as a salute to New York City during the late sixties and seventies and to its rich and poor, its hustlers and hellions. A true fable, it is a portrait of two young artists' ascent, a prelude to fame. </p>

Everything I Know About Love
Dolly Alderton · 2020
<p>New York Times Bestseller</p><p>Like Bridget Jones’ Diary but all true— a wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking memoir from the funny, sharp British journalist and podcast host, who Elizabeth Gilbert calls “a sparkling Roman candle of talent.”</p><p>“The older you get, the more baggage you carry. When you date at twenty-five, everyone walks into the bar with a very neat, light carry-on. When you date from thirty onwards, get ready to meet someone absolutely brimming with history, complications and demands.”</p><p>When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, writer Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, and that absolutely no one can ever compare to her best girlfriends. Everything I Know About Love is about bad dates, good friends and—above all else— realizing that you are enough.</p><p>Glittering with wit and insight, heart and humor, Dolly Alderton’s unforgettable debut weaves together personal stories, satirical observations, a series of lists, recipes, and other vignettes that will strike a chord of recognition with women of every age.</p>

Al final mueren los dos
Silvera Adam · 2014
El fenómeno internacional que lleva más de 140. 000 ejemplares vendidos en español. Imagina un mundo en el que una organización avisa a las personas de la inminencia de su muerte. Imagina que ha empezado la cuenta atrás. Imagina cómo vivirías tu vida en solo un día. ¿Estarías preparado para decir adiós? Al final mueren los dos es un canto a la fuerza arrolladora de la vida, que transformará para siempre tu forma de comprender el tiempo, la amistad y el amor. Hola, te llamamos desde Muerte Súbita y lamentamos informarte de que morirás en algún momento de las próximas veinticuatro horas. Mateo Torrez y Rufus Emeterio no se han conocido en clase ni en una fiesta, como cualquier otro chico de su edad. Ellos lo han hecho a través de Último Amigo, una aplicación creada para que aquellas personas que han recibido la llamada de Muerte Súbita, una organización que anuncia que tu muerte está a la vuelta de la esquina, puedan acompañarse en sus últimas horas. Mateo y Rufus no podrían ser más distintos, pero pronto comprenderán que los une algo mucho más que un final inminente. Juntos, están a punto de descubrir que nunca es tarde para derribar los muros; ni para reparar todo aquello que habrías hecho de otra manera si pudieras empezar de cero. Y sí, puede que los dos hayan recibido la llamada de la Muerte, pero, a lo largo de este último día, la vida y el amor pueden encenderse en sus corazones con mucha intensidad. Llegó la hora de vivir su última gran aventura.

Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones
James Clear · 2018
The #1 New York Times bestseller. Over 20 million copies sold!<br/><br/>Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results<br/><br/>No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving--every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results.<br/><br/>If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights.<br/><br/>Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.<br/><br/>Learn how to:<br/><br/>make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy);<br/>overcome a lack of motivation and willpower; design your environment to make success easier; get back on track when you fall off course; ...and much more.<br/><br/>Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.

The Interpretation of Dreams
Sigmund Freud · 2022
In attempting a discussion of the Interpretation of Dreams, I do not believe that I have overstepped the bounds of neuropathological interest. For, on psychological investigation, the dream proves to be the first link in a chain of abnormal psychic structures whose other links, the hysterical phobia, the obsession, and the delusion must, for practical reasons, claim the interest of the physician. The dream (as will appear) can lay no claim to a corresponding practical significance; its theoretical value as a paradigm is, however, all the greater, and one who cannot explain the origin of the dream pictures will strive in vain to understand the phobias, obsessive and delusional ideas, and likewise their therapeutic importance.<br/><br/>- Taken from "The Interpretation of Dreams" written by Sigmund Freud

<p>NOW ON BROADWAY<br></p><p>The international bestseller and modern classic of adventure, survival, and the power of storytelling is now an award-winning play.<br></p><p>After the sinking of a cargo ship, a solitary lifeboat remains bobbing on the wild blue Pacific. The only survivors from the wreck are a sixteen-year-old boy named Pi, a hyena, a wounded zebra, an orangutan—and a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger.<br></p><p>Soon the tiger has dispatched all but Pi Patel, whose fear, knowledge, and cunning allow him to coexist with the tiger, Richard Parker, for 227 days while lost at sea. When they finally reach the coast of Mexico, Richard Parker flees to the jungle, never to be seen again.<br></p><p>The Japanese authorities who interrogate Pi refuse to believe his story and press him to tell them "the truth." After hours of coercion, Pi tells a second story, a story much less fantastical, much more conventional—but is it more true?<br></p><p>Life of Pi is at once a realistic, rousing adventure and a meta-tale of survival that explores the redemptive power of storytelling and the transformative nature of fiction. It's a story, as one character puts it, to make you believe in God.<br></p>

<p><i>The Bell Jar</i> chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under -- maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's insanity becomes completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such deep penetration into the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche is an extraordinary accomplishment and has made <i>The Bell Jar</i> a haunting American classic.</p> <p>This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.</p>

Why Fashion Matters
Frances Corner · 2014
<p>An illuminating introduction to the expanding influence of fashion from the perspectives of design, technology, sustainability, and business</p> Fashion matters for the economy, to society, and to each of us personally. Faster than anything else, what we wear tells the story of who we are—or who we want to be. It is the most immediate form of self-expression.<br> <br> Yet even as fashion touches the lives of each and every one of us, its influence and the vast creative industry that it supports can seem mysterious to outsiders. In Why Fashion Matters Frances Corner, Head of London College of Fashion, guides readers into the dizzying world of this rapidly expanding, increasingly global, always exciting industry.<br> <br> In provocative and intriguing entries, Corner teases out the glorious intricacies and contradictions of an industry that simultaneously values technology and craft; timeless style and fast fashion; the bespoke and the mass-market; consumption and sustainability; cold, hard numbers; and creative expression. From “Shop 'til We Drop” to “The White Shirt” to “The One Trillion Dollar Business” each entry offers a unique avenue into fashion and its impact, both positive and negative, on lives around the globe.
