¿Qué contarán los libros de historia de Juan Carlos I?¿Qué reino heredará Leonor? ¿Reinará? Hay un viejo rey, Juan Carlos, trágico y dos nuevos reyes, Felipe y Letizia, que caminan sobre alfombras rojas que cubren cadáveres. Hay una princesa, Leonor, protegida como si fuera el Santo Grial. Ella es la gran esperanza de la familia y su futuro. Hay amor, sexo y dinero. Hay muchísimo dinero. También hay traiciones, amenazas y ambición. Hay un álbum de fotos de la Familia Real de la revista ¡Hola! que no era real. Hay una frase de Shakespeare que resume lo sucedido: «La corona ha devorado al que la lleva» y otra que cuenta lo que sucede: «Inquieta yace la cabeza que lleva una corona». Esta historia es un cuento que se acaba. Pero también otro que continúa. Este libro es el relato esencial de los episodios que han sumido a la Casa Real en una crisis tan imprevisible como grave y el análisis que esos hechos requieren en tiempos de posverdad y desafección. El autor nos invita a conocer el qué, primero, y comprender el por qué, después, para entender la caída de Juan Carlos, por qué su derrumbe no causó el estruendo que debería haber provocado y cómo este se ha convertido hoy día en la mayor amenaza del trono de Leonor. De ella depende el incierto porvenir de la corona. Porque el reino se hereda siempre con todos sus fantasmas. Si es que se hereda... ENGLISH DESCRIPTION What will the history books say of Juan Carlos I? What kind of kingdom will Leonor inherit? Will she reign? There is an old king, Juan Carlos, tragic. And two new monarchs, Felipe and Letizia, walking on red carpets that cover a line of dead bodies. There is a princess, Leonor, protected as if she were the Holy Grail. She is the family's greatest hope and future. There is love, sex, and money. There is a whole lot of money. There are also betrayals, threats, and ambitions. There is a photo album of the Royal Family in ¡Hola! magazine that it isn't real. There is a line from Shakespeare that sums up what happened: "[The crown] Hast eat thy bearer up." And another one that describes what is happening now: "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown." This story is a tale at its end. But also, a tale that is ongoing. This book is an essential account of those episodes that plunged the Royal Family into a crisis as unforeseeable as it is serious, and the analysis that such facts require in times of post-truth and disaffection. The author invites us to know the what first and then understand the why, in order to comprehend Juan Carlos' collapse, why his downfall did not make the kind of racket it should have, and how he has become the greatest threat to Leonor's throne. The Crown's uncertain future lies with her. Because every kingdom is always inherited with all its ghosts. If it is indeed inherited at all...

Mesmerizing; shows the butterfly effect in action
Format: Paperback
Charles Mann’s “1493” is about globalization and the Homogenocene epoch. Unlike the plenitude of other recent books about globalization, however, “1493” is about biological globalization rather than economic globalization. The book traces the results of the Columbian Exchange, with chapters devoted to tobacco, the earthworm, malaria, silver, potatoes and sweet potatoes, guano and rubber.
The book is in four parts, and is written in an accessible, non-academic style. I found the first three parts of the book, which cover the impact of the Columbian Exchange on the Atlantic, the Pacific and Europe, respectively, to be captivating. These parts of the book demonstrated the fascinating interconnectedness of all things in a globalized society (in other words the “butterfly effect”) – for example, how transporting the sweet potato to Western China led to population migrations from Eastern to Western China, deforestation and overflowing of the Yellow River. The general result of such biological globalization is the creation of the Homogenocene epoch, a term which Mann uses to describe the biological homogenization that has replaced biological diversity since the time of Columbus. In the first three parts of the book, Mann demonstrates how history, biology and chemistry are all interrelated, and how today’s world continues to be influenced by the Columbian Exchange.
I found the last part of the book to be less impressive than the first three parts. Part Four is called “Africa in the World,” but confusingly it is about South America, not Africa. Parts of it read more like travel writing than history. Still, the book deserves five stars for the first three thrilling parts, which successfully trace the mesmerizing history of various everyday biological substances.

There were periods I was on the edge of my seat. There were times I just wanted to the book to end.
Format: Paperback
I recently started reading at 40 years old to make up for a lot of wasted time and missed education. This is a very informative read, but that said, I had a hard time staying focused sometimes. He gets into a lot of the science pertaining to plagues, epidemics etc which is interesting and I am reluctant to list science as a con as I did learn, but frequently found myself scrolling through several pages just to get the main idea behind the historical part. There were periods that I was on the edge of my seat and there were times I just wanted to the book to end. 1491 was similar. Both useful books, but a bit challenging to follow along especially if you are only reading small amounts at at time like on break at work etc. It jumps around from S. America, N America and China all through the book. I would have preferred that each region be separated. I get that he had his reasons. I am glad I read both books, but I probably should have gone with more of an overview vs the more in-depth content in this. I do not regret reading both books however, and recommend if you already have a good knowledge of this subject and are just trying to learn a little more. I found the information about the slave trade, the most interesting and wasn't aware that the majority of slaves shipped over from Africa went to Mesoamerica and the Caribbean. I also did not realize that plague and sickness really enabled use of African slaves as they were not prone to malaria like the Europeans. There is also some good info about ancient China and also sliver and mercury mining with South American Indians which made the book worth it for me.

If you liked 1491, you'll like 1493
Format: Hardcover
I originally read the first edition of 1491, which I loved. So that's why I ordered 1493. At about the same time 1493 arrived, I found out there was a new, revised version of 1491, which my husband bought from another source. So I re-read it at the same time I read 1493 for the first time. The reason I mention this is that there are some similarities between the revised version of 1491 and the newer book, 1493 - actually some repeated material. That's ok, as the author is taking the premise of 1491 another step further. Essentially, 1491 focuses on what new studies show was really going on in the Western Hemisphere before Columbus' arrival, where native peoples were far more numerous and had more advanced cultures than Europeans previously thought possible. In 1493, Charles Mann shows not only how Columbus and Europeans changed the New World, but how the "Columbian exchange" wrought great changes in the other direction as well. And he pulls in the further exchanges with Asia, to show the trans-global linkages of the phenomenon. So, some of his exposition gets a little repetitious, but overall he's an engaging writer, and for those of us who love the history of cultural exchanges and first contact, these books are mandatory reading!

Truly worth every penny. DS2r?
Format: Hardcover
Truly incredible documentation of the thoughtful work of a handful of artists. I'm hoping that by supporting this book we may inch ourselves closer to a Dead Space 2 remake lead by Motive studio. This book is a must for fans or the game and horror in general. Well made, good quality images, lore drops, developer letters. Its fantastic!
