Universal Father

Resumen del Libro

Libro Universal Father

Pope John Paul II is now universally considered to have been one of the great leaders of the twentieth century and possibly the most politically influential pope since St Peter. His achievements are well documented, yet he once said, 'I can only be understood from the inside.' In this vivid and accessible living portrait, O'Connor investigates the inner man, including Karol Wojtyla's life before he became Pope and his friendships with men and women, subtly analysing the Pope's own poems, plays and philosophical works for clues as to what made him tick. It also dramatically follows his life, from his birth in Poland in 1920, through the losses that shaped his childhood, the assassination attempt in 1981, and his great public confrontations on the world stage, right up until his death in April 2005.

Morir de amor

Libro Morir de amor

La violencia de pareja en Colombia sigue siendo un fenómeno alarmante y, lamentablemente, en crecimiento, cuyos orígenes pueden remontarse al momento en que nuestro territorio era uno de los virreinatos de la monarquía hispánica. Muchas de las agresiones y asesinatos derivados de pleitos entre cónyuges o entre amantes quedaron plasmados en los registros judiciales de la época; episodios violentos que dan cuenta de una sociedad marcada por la desigualdad social, racial y de género. Morir de amor rescata del Archivo General de la Nación 164 casos (ocurridos entre el siglo XVI y la...

What Reagan Couldn't Tell Us

Libro What Reagan Couldn't Tell Us

Many of Ronald Reagan's ways were not only unusual, but seem to contradict his others. Some authors are so perplexed by his nature they are reluctant to even assign intelligence to his mentality. They suspect he operated on everything from instinct to hunches to gut feelings and guesses. Lawrence Nesbitt's six years of extensive research has revealed a single psychological key that makes sense of the anomalies and contradictions. He has uncovered a powerful and nearly unique mindset that directed almost all of Reagan's conduct then and causes the confusion now. This unusual belief also...
