Betty Ford was the First Lady of President Gerald Ford. Many biographies seem to focus on just that one aspect of her life, but as consequential as her time in the White House was, she was more than that. Since her earliest days as a little girl in Michigan, Betty Ford lived a life that was full of learning, full of adventure, and full of service. She was a dancer who graced stages in New York City. She was a woman who rebuilt her life after a difficult first marriage.

Franz Josef Strauß gehört in die Reihe der großen Gestalten der deutschen Politik, wie Adenauer, Brandt, Wehner. So gehasst wie er wurde kaum ein anderer deutscher Politiker, aber auch kaum einer so verehrt. Die Geschichte des Franz Josef Strauß ist die faszinierende Geschichte des Aufstiegs vom Metzgersohn zum ungekrönten König der Bayern. Werner Biermann konnte mit Freunden, Weggefährten und Mitgliedern der Familie Strauß sprechen und zeichnet ein präzises, facettenreiches Bild.

You've watched him dominate headlines for decades. You've seen him win an election everyone said was impossible, survive scandals that would destroy normal politicians, and build a following so loyal they'd follow him through hell wearing gasoline underpants.

As much coverage as Jane Fonda has elicited through the years, the stories often skim past her prime filmmaking core. Fonda on Film spotlights the signature political films Fonda generated in the 1970s—Coming Home, The China Syndrome, 9 to 5, and more—that are still underappreciated even as Fonda endures as one of the world’s most admired and controversial performers. This is a movie book about a mega-celebrity, an origin story voyaging through Fonda’s learning years in the 1960s and the calculated payoff of the 1970s.

Lo escribo después de haber dedicado doce años a la política, obviamente. Pero se trata de un relato vital de la última década, en la que lo personal y lo profesional eran un todo. Esta historia habla sobre el dolor, aunque tampoco es un almanaque de salud o una guía médica. Es un relato para entender cómo lo urgente dio paso a lo prioritario, es decir, cómo la obsesión por querer alcanzar el éxito y el reconocimiento profesional se impuso y evitó que me detuviera ante las llamadas de atención de mi propio cuerpo.

Russian composers now had to create work that served the socialist state, and all artistic production was scrutinized for potential subversion. The Sound of Utopia offers a vivid portrait of Soviet musicians and composers struggling to create art in this climate of terror. Some successfully toed the ideological line, diluting their work in the process; others ended up facing the Gulag or even death.

لعل أصدق وصف لهذا الكتاب أنه يمثل بحق مرآة العصر، فقد تناول فيه «عبد العزيز البشري» بالنقد والتحليل عددًا من أبرز شخصيات عصره في مختلف المجالات؛ كالسياسة، والطب، والفن، والشعر، والاقتصاد. هؤلاء الذين ساهموا في صناعة تاريخ مصر في تلك الحقبة، والذين ما زالوا حتى الآن مادة أساسية للبحث والاستقصاء. ويعكس لنا المؤلف صورة ألمع شخصيات العصر بالنسبة للأدباء والمفكرين، ولا يخفى على القارئ اللبيب الاتجاه السياسي الذي يمثله المؤلف؛ الأمر الذي ظهر جليًّا فى كتابته، حيث أشاد بدور كل من «سعد باشا زغلول» و«مصطفى باشا النحاس».
