En esta biografía, Manuel Serrano profundiza en la figura de Emilio Castelar, el republicano español más importante del siglo XIX. Más allá de los tópicos relacionados con su retórica, y que aún persisten, Castelar fue uno de los personajes más lúcidos y respetados de la política española cuya herencia ha caído en un radical e injusto olvido.

The Finnish Front Line is a historical biography of Urho Kekkonen, the eighth and longest-serving president of Finland. Gordon F. Sander focuses on Kekkonen's pivotal first term as president, which was bracketed by two crises that together formed the template for both Finland's relationship with the Soviet Union from 1956 through the fall of the USSR, and Kekkonen's own "special" relationship with Moscow: the Night Frost crisis of 1957, which derived from the Kremlin's desire to exert greater influence on Finnish politics.

Giulia Zollino ha vissuto questa educazione - o, sarebbe meglio dire, diseducazione - sulla propria pelle. Poi, però, ha incontrato il femminismo. È successo a Bologna, durante gli anni burrascosi dell'università, tra gruppi di discussione, letture e orgasmi. Ed è stato amore a prima vista. Questo incontro ha segnato uno spartiacque tra un prima e un dopo, da qui è partito il suo percorso di ribellione e riscoperta di sé. Il femminismo le ha insegnato a distruggere i miti nocivi, come quello della bellezza, permettendole di accettare e riappropriarsi del suo corpo.

Um retrato íntimo e nuançado de Martin Luther King Jr., nesta que é mais abrangente biografia já escrita sobre ele. Martin Luther King Jr. é dos "pais fundadores" dos Estados Unidos. Essa ideia, que à primeira vista pode soar excêntrica, ganha consistência — e se torna até tímida — com a leitura desta biografia, fruto de pesquisa exaustiva e baseada em arquivos do FBI só agora liberados pela Casa Branca. Aliás, podemos ir mais longe e ver King como um dos fundadores da própria democracia liberal moderna.

Nel casotto degli attrezzi di una villa ligure, un bambino gioca a intagliare il legno. Sandro Pertini, figlio di una famiglia agiata, da grande vorrebbe fare l'ebanista. L'Italia dei primi del Novecento è un paese in fermento: la distanza tra ricchi e poveri è enorme, il vento del socialismo scuote le piazze, l'entusiasmo interventista spinge alla guerra. Sandro osserva, ascolta, dubita. Le domande scomode, le ingiustizie sociali, la guerra forgiano la sua coscienza, alimentano la sua fame di giustizia. Crescendo, Sandro capisce che non è il legno ciò che vuole modellare, ma la società.

À partir d'archives inédites – celles en particulier du fonds de Gaulle que l'auteur a été le premier à explorer – il renouvelle la connaissance de cette période au fil d'une dramaturgie où l'analyse psychologique du personnage principal se mêle aux péripéties politiques qui ont émaillé ce parcours tumultueux.
