Después de diciembre

Joana Marcús

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?

La ultima nota

Joana Marcús

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.
