Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency.

De sangre y cenizas (Spanish Edition)
De sangre y cenizas (Spanish Edition)
Apasionante y con una acción trepidante, De sangre y cenizas es una fantasía adictiva e inesperada, perfecta para los lectores de Sarah J. Maas.<br><br>UNA DONCELLA…<br>Elegida desde su nacimiento para dar comienzo a una nueva era, la vida de Poppy nunca le ha pertenecido. La vida de la Doncella es solitaria. Jamás la tocarán. Jamás la mirarán. Jamás le hablarán. Jamás sentirá placer. Mientras espera el día de su Ascensión, preferiría estar con los guardias luchando contra el mal que se llevó a su familia que preparándose para que los dioses la encuentren lo bastante digna. Pero la elección nunca ha sido suya.<br>UN DEBER…<br>El futuro del reino entero recae sobre los hombros de Poppy, algo que ni siquiera está demasiado segura de querer para ella. Porque la Doncella tiene corazón. Y alma. Y deseo. Y cuando Hawke, un guardia de ojos dorados que ha jurado garantizar su Ascensión, entra en su vida, el destino y el deber se entremezclan con el deseo y la necesidad. Él incita su ira, hace que se cuestione todo aquello en lo que cree y la tienta con lo prohibido.<br>UN REINO…<br>Abandonado por los dioses y temido por los mortales, un reino caído está resurgiendo, decidido a recuperar lo que cree que es suyo mediante la violencia y la venganza. Y a medida que la sombra de los malditos se acerca, la línea entre lo prohibido y lo correcto se difumina. Poppy no solo está a punto de perder el corazón y ser considerada indigna por los dioses, sino que también está a punto de perder la vida cuando los ensangrentados hilos que mantienen unido su mundo empiezan a deshilacharse.<br>

Después de diciembre / After December (Wattpad. Meses a tu lado) (Spanish Edition)
Joana Marcús • 2023
Todo cambiará... después de diciembre. El tiempo es algo relativo. Para algunos pasa más rápido, para otros no tanto. Para Jenna Brown el último año se ha hecho eterno. Cuando superas una ruptura el tiempo se rige por otras leyes física y estar un año sin Jack Ross, ha sido uno de los retos más difíciles de su vida. Pero ha conseguido superarlo, centrarse en sí misma y convertirse en la nueva Jenn que tiene un nuevo objetivo vital: terminar sus estudios. Aunque suponga volver al lugar donde todo empezó y que tantos recuerdos le evocaba. Aunque suponga tener que enfrentarse a las consecuencias de todas las decisiones que tomó un año atrás. Jenna estaba convencida de que todo lo ocurrido antes de diciembre formaba parte del pasado, pero... ¿qué ocurriría después de diciembre? ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Everything will change... after December. Time is relative. For some people it flies, for others doesn't. For Jenna Brown, the last year has been eternal. When you get over a breakup, time is governed by very different physical theories. Spending a year without Jack Ross has been one of the most difficult challenges of Jenna’s life. But she has managed to overcome the circumstances, and has focused on herself, all to become the new Jenn with a new resolution: to finish her studies. Even if it means going back to the place where it all began and that evoked her so many memories. Even if it means having to face the consequences of all the decisions that she made a year ago. Jenna was convinced that everything that happened before December was in the past, but… what is happening after December?

Bajo la misma estrella
John Green • 2012
Bajo la misma estrella es la novela que ha catapultado a John Green al éxito. Una historia que explora cuán exquisita y trágica puede ser la aventura de saberse vivo y querer a alguien. Emotiva, irónica y afilada. Una novela teñida de humor y de tragedia que habla de nuestra capacidad para soñar incluso en las circunstancias más difíciles. A Hazel y a Gus les gustaría tener vidas más corrientes. Algunos dirían que no han nacido con estrella, que su mundo es injusto. Hazel y Gus son solo adolescentes, pero si algo les ha enseñado el cáncer que ambos padecen es que no hay tiempo para lamentaciones, porque, nos guste o no, solo existe el hoy y el ahora. Y por ello, con la intención de hacer realidad el mayor deseo de Hazel -conocer a su escritor favorito-, cruzarán juntos el Atlántico para vivir una aventura contrarreloj, tan catártica como desgarradora. Destino: Amsterdam, el lugar donde reside el enigmático y malhumorado escritor, la única persona que tal vez pueda ayudarles a ordenar las piezas del enorme puzle del que forman parte... Mejor libro del año según Time y Entretaintment Weekly. Más de 7 millones de ejemplares vendidos en el mundo. Número 1 en las listas de best sellers durante meses. La crítica ha dicho... «Una novela sobre la vida y la muerte, y sobre los que están atrapados entre las dos... Reirás, llorarás y te quedarás con ganas de más.» Markus Zusak, autor de La ladrona de libros «Una novela imposible de olvidar, para jóvenes y no tan jóvenes.» USA Today «Absolutamente genial. [...] Un ejemplo perfecto de por qué los adultos leen novelas juveniles.» Time «Esta novela es un triunfo.» Booklist «Divertida... Conmovedora... Luminosa.» Entretaintment Weekly «Una mezcla de melancolía, dulzura, filosofía y humor.» New York Times «John Green aúna lo profundo y lo cotidiano en esta desgarradora novela.» Washington Post «Una historia dolorosamente bella sobre la vida y las pérdidas.» School Library Journal

The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency.

Un mundo dividido. Un reino sin su heredera. Un antiguo enemigo se despierta. Fantasía épica ideal para los lectores de Geroge R.R. Martin y J.R.R. Tolkien ... La Casa de Berethnet ha gobernado Inys durante mil años. Aún sin casar, la reina Sabran IX debe concebir una hija para proteger a su reino de la destrucción. Pero los asesinos cada vez están más cerca. Ead Duryan es una intrusa en la corte. A pesar de que se ha posicionado como dama de compañía, es leal a una sociedad oculta de magos. Ead vigila a Sabran, protegiéndola en secreto con magia prohibida. Al otro lado del mar oscuro, Tane ha entrenado toda su vida para ser una jinete del dragón, pero se ve obligada a tomar una decisión que podría romper su vida en añicos. Mientras tanto, el Este y el Oeste siguen divididos. Cada región tiene una religión diferente basada en los sucesos acaecidos mucho tiempo atrás. Los que adoran a los dragones, los que los detestan y quienes adoran al Sin Nombre aparentemente nunca se pondrán de acuerdo. Y las fuerzas del caos se despiertan de su letargo y parecen estar a punto de llegar. --

El Retrato de Dorian Gray
Oscar Wilde · 2022
El irlandés Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) fue uno de los grandes agitadores culturales de su época. Autor polifacético y versátil, cultivó con impagable maestría desde el teatro y la poesía hasta la narrativa oriental y el aforismo, el cuento corto o el ensayo. De entre toda su producción, El retrato de Dorian Gray (1890) destaca no sólo por ser su única novela, sino también su trabajo más perdurable. Las desventuras de Dorian Gray, ese dandi paradigmático y ocurrente obsesionado con lo efímero, y su pánico a envejecer nos deparan la más genial y absorbente de las vueltas de tuerca que jamás se le hayan dado a la novela fáustica.

Damián
Alex Mírez • 2022
Padme ha vivido durante toda su vida en el pueblo de Asfil. Es una chica normal, buena. O eso parece. En el fondo tiene varios secretos, y uno de ellos se llama Damián. Es su peculiar vecino, que siempre le dio la impresión de estar ocultando algo y a quien ella trató de descifrar sin éxito. Un día, Damián desaparece y su vida sigue un curso corriente, pero meses después vuelve, y con él regresa la peligrosa curiosidad que Padme tanto intentó reprimir. Ella decide, finalmente, seguirlo. Es entonces cuando descubre eso que tanto Damián como Asfil, han intentado....
