At just four years old, Reza Farahan left Iran for what was supposed to be a quick family trip to Los Angeles. But while he was soaking up the California sun, revolution erupted back home, and Reza's short stay turned into permanent exile. Caught between cultures, identities, and expectations, Reza was an outsider in every sense of the word. He was a half-Muslim, half-Jewish, gay Persian kid just trying to survive 1980s America―a place that saw him as a threat, even when all he wanted was to belong. But with an unapologetic spirit and bold personality, Reza was never destined to simply fit in.

El Director es un retrato íntimo de las encrucijadas éticas, las relaciones personales, las amistades y deslealtades que se viven cuando se ocupa el despacho de uno de los grandes diarios del país. David Jiménez hizo carrera cubriendo guerras, desastres y revoluciones durante casi dos décadas antes de ser nombrado director de El Mundo. Lo que parecía un reto ilusionante - dirigir el diario en el que entró como becario a los 23 años.

When leading Princeton physicist Paul Steinhardt began working in the 1980s, scientists thought they knew all the conceivable forms of matter. The Second Kind of Impossible is the story of Steinhardt’s 35-year-long quest to challenge conventional wisdom. It begins with a curious geometric pattern that inspires two theoretical physicists to propose a radically new type of matter - one that raises the possibility of new materials with never-before-seen properties but that violates laws set in stone for centuries.

Paris, near the turn of 1933. Three young friends meet over apricot cocktails at the Bec-de-Gaz bar on the rue Montparnasse. They are Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and their friend Raymond Aron, who opens their eyes to a radical new way of thinking. Pointing to his drink, he says, 'You can make philosophy out of this cocktail!'

This is perhaps one of the best-loved of all journals. William Wordsworth's sister, Dorothy, began it in May 1800 and resolved to keep it for a short time. She continued it for nearly three years. In it, she brought the Dove Cottage years to vivid and intimate life. She noted the walks and weather, the friends, country neighbours, and travellers on the roads. She set down accounts of the garden, of Wordsworth's marriage, their concern for Coleridge, and the composition of Wordsworth's poetry.

Il cardinale Gerhard Müller racconta dall'interno alcuni degli episodi salienti degli ultimi due pontificati. Una lunga intervista senza censure, a cura della vaticanista Franca Giansoldati, in cui il teologo tedesco spiega la confusione dottrinaria che rischia di soffiare sul fuoco di nuove eresie e affronta i temi più scottanti del papato di Francesco: dalla politica estera del Vaticano alla gestione degli scandali di pedofilia, dalle questioni di genere, aborto e fine vita alla rinuncia di Ratzinger, dalla guerra in Europa al rischio di uno scisma e alla previsione sul prossimo conclave.

Gabriella Greison racconta la bizzarra esistenza e le ancor più straordinarie intuizioni di uno dei padri della fisica quantistica, Paul Dirac, fisico premio Nobel 1933. Dirac è stato un fisico geniale e un uomo strambo e meticoloso, costantemente impegnato a elaborare formule, fra cui quella meraviglia grazie alla quale è entrato nella storia della scienza e che lo indica sulla lapide nell'Abbazia di Westminster a fianco di Isaac Newton: i? + ?? = m?.

Tief in der eisigen Abgeschiedenheit der Antarktis arbeitet die Naturschutzbiologin Louise Blight in einer kleinen Forschungsstation – umgeben von Schnee, Stille und unzähligen Pinguinen. Mit feinem Gespür erzählt Blight vom Leben am Rand der Welt: von langen Tagen voller Forschung, unerwarteten Begegnungen und stillen Momenten mit Tieren, die ihr ans Herz gewachsen sind. Ihre Geschichten zeigen, wie tief die Verbindung zwischen Mensch und Natur sein kann – und wie heilend sie wirkt.

Höchst kenntnisreich führt uns Werner Bartens durch die Menschheits- und Medizingeschichte. Lebensnah und manchmal blutig erzählt er von Helden der Medizin, vergessenen Dramen und erstaunlichen Entdeckungen, ohne die die Welt heute anders aussähe. Bartens zeigt, was wir von der Viersäftelehre übernommen haben, wie Schneewittchens Glassarg und der Boom der Obduktionen zusammenhängen und weshalb der erste Herzkatheter, den sich Werner Forßmann 1929 selbst einsetzte, vom großen Chirurgen Sauerbruch ignoriert wurde.

Diana, la principessa del popolo, e Camilla, regina del Regno Unito. Due donne molto diverse, con un denominatore comune: il matrimonio con il principe Carlo. Un triangolo che per anni ha riempito le pagine dei giornali e i media di tutto il mondo e ha cambiato la Casa reale inglese. Una storia di tre dolori, ma anche di ingiustizie subite da due donne che la vita ha reso antagoniste ma che sono state essenzialmente vittime dello stesso sistema.

El catorce de agosto de 2023 será una fecha que quedará grabada, para siempre, en la vida de Francesc Torralba. Es el último día de la vida de su hijo Oriol, quien murió haciendo una excursión por la montaña. El proceso del duelo es un camino tortuoso y con muchos vaivenes que nos pone ante lo único insalvable: la muerte. No hay palabras es la obra de la vida del autor, por tema personal, pero también porque es un replanteamiento desde una perspectiva totalmente novedosa de un tema que él ya había tratado, cómo era la pérdida de un ser querido.

Was steckt hinter dem Tod einer Buchhalterin, die in einer Käserei erstochen wurde? Gibt es tatsächlich einen weiteren geheimnisvollen Täter, der den Mord vollendete? Spurlos verschwand kurz vor der Wende 1989 ein 13-jähriges Mädchen auf dem Weg zur Schule. Die Ermittlungen gestalteten sich schwierig, denn jeder aus ihrem Umfeld hatte ein Motiv. Doch was geschah wirklich? Und versucht ein elfjähriger Junge ein Mädchen aus seiner Nachbarschaft zu erwürgen, ehe er später tatsächlich zum dreifachen Mörder wird?
