En la misma línea de sus trabajos anteriores, Jorge Baradit construye siete perfiles de personajes de la historia chilena considerados díscolos, incómodos o derechamente peligrosos para statu quo de sus épocas. En este audiolibro desfilan Arturo Fernández Vial, Manuel Rodríguez, Águeda Monasterio, Luis Emilio Recabarren, Francisco Bilbao, Ramón Freire y Pedro Aguirre Cerda: personajes de origines tan disímiles, pero que comparten - de diversas formas - el rótulo de agitadores o transgresores.

Con su distinguible estilo narrativo y el aura de Historia secreta de Chile, Baradit responde estas preguntas y retrata no solo los secretos y la ferocidad del régimen.

Sono in tanti a chiedersi cosa stia succedendo oggi nel Venezuela. Le informazioni che arrivano sono spesso allarmanti ma contradditorie.

Com'è successo che un Paese così ricco di risorse naturali e con una posizione geografica così strategica sia sprofondato in una crisi economica di queste dimensioni?

In the early years of the 18th century, a band of French scientists set off on a daring, decade-long expedition to South America in a race to measure the precise shape of the earth. Like Lewis and Clark's exploration of the American West, their incredible mission revealed the mysteries of a little-known continent to a world hungry for discovery. Scaling 16,000-foot mountains in the Peruvian Andes, and braving jaguars, pumas, insects, and vampire bats in the jungle, the scientists barely completed their mission.

For 60 years, conservationists have worked to restore this evolutionary Eden after centuries of exploitation at the hands of pirates, whalers, and island settlers. This book tells the story of the islands' namesakes - the giant tortoises - as coveted food sources, objects of natural history, and famous icons of conservation and tourism. By doing so, it brings into stark relief the paradoxical, and impossible, goal of conserving species by trying to restore a past state of prehistoric evolution.

Previous accounts of the fall of the Inca empire have played up the importance of the events of one violent day in November 1532 at the highland Andean town of Cajamarca. To some, the "Cajamarca miracle" - in which Francisco Pizarro and a small contingent of Spaniards captured an Inca who led an army numbering in the tens of thousands - demonstrated the intervention of divine providence. To others, the outcome was simply the result of European technological and immunological superiority.

They set election ballots ablaze and vanished, but not before planting a red hammer-and-sickle banner in the town square. The lone man arrested the next morning later swore allegiance to a group called Shining Path. Described by a US State Department cable as "cold-blooded and bestial", Shining Path orchestrated bombings, assassinations, and massacres across the cities, countryside, and jungles of Peru in a murderous campaign to seize power and impose a Communist government.
