Does the survival of a company still depend on adaptation? These and other questions are analyzed, challenged and questioned by the author, who seeks to make us think and discover together. We are used to assuming thoughts or philosophies automatically, without questioning them. We have become repeaters, not thinkers, and this has enormous consequences.

    Does Leonor, Princess of Asturias, need defense or advice? To overprotect her, beyond the protection of Justice and her parents, would be to patronize her. "Condescend" is an inadequate verb for those who descend from kings. Juan de Mariana was the distinguished historian of the 17th century, author of "Mirror of Princes". This work became the instructional guide for the education of the future Felipe IV, heir to the crown of Spain, who at that time did not need as much defense as Leonor, the daughter of Felipe VI. Leonor, apprentice queen, is already a woman who marks her goals: "talent, effort, commitment and solidarity". The objective of her detractors is herself, because her future will be determined by her good role. That is why they have subjected Leonor, even in her minority, to so many attacks. Ignacio Monar, the author of this modern "Mirror of Princes", teaches philosophy precisely at the IES Padre Juan de Mariana in Talavera de la Reina. In an exercise of realism, and imitating Mariana's style, sarcasm included, he has written what he considers the most important steps for the future representative of the most significant institution in Spain to know how to take certain steps. Undoubtedly, the vocation of teacher and his academic training predisposes him to be able to help the gestation of the future Queen Leonor, something you are not born with, you make it. "We young people are aware that the current situation is not easy, that the world has changed and continues to change and that the best way to progress is to maintain our enthusiasm for knowledge, to equip ourselves with responsibility and capacity for effort, to learn from those who know, from those who do their thing impeccably, often in silence." Infanta Leonor, speech at the Princess of Asturias Awards Ceremony, 2022.

    Discover the story of Voyager, the probes that transformed our vision of the solar system and became a space myth. Since their launch in 1977, these revolutionary spacecrafts have surpassed all the technological limits of their time and have left an indelible mark on space exploration. With their ability to overcome obstacles and their incredible longevity, the Voyager spacecraft dazzled us like no other probe. But more importantly, these incredible machines showed us for the first time the reality of our solar system. They turned points of light into recognizable worlds and introduced us to the astonishing diversity of our cosmic neighborhood. From their exhaustive reconnaissance of the outer solar system, Voyager secured their place in history as the first to reveal the truth about our cosmos. To add even more mysticism, the presence of Carl Sagan in this story completes the myth. With the famous Golden Disk attached to the probes, designed to communicate with possible extraterrestrial civilizations, and his involvement in the iconic "Pale Blue Dot" and the "Cosmos" series, Sagan elevated Voyager's status to another level. This is the perfect recipe for creating space myth.

With an entertaining style, we will immerse ourselves in a journey through the history of cryptography: from the scytala used by the Greeks and Romans, Polybius' tablet, Alberti's disks or the various encryption methods used by kings, queens, Templars or Freemasons to keep their messages away from prying eyes, to the Enigma machine used during World War II by the Germans to send encrypted messages and deciphered by the Allies with the help of Alan Turing. And not only that, we will also delve into current security methods, such as online finance, credit card payments or cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

This was Helvius Pertinax, who suffered three conspiracies in the three months of his reign. After him came the "Auction of the Empire", the bid won by the very rich senator Didius Julianus, who ruled by the force of his money, but who was also betrayed by the Praetorians when Severus took up arms.

    Our attention is more dispersed than ever. We spend our days jumping from content to content, app to platform, giving likes, commenting, sharing and in some cases, even generating content. It is a scarce and limited commodity and content is becoming more and more abundant. This is the basis of the attention economy. This book was born from this concept for brands and advertisers, mainly, to reflect on where our attention is in an era characterized by massive competition between platforms and content creators fighting for the interest of users. Its author, Roger Casas-Alatriste, answers fundamental questions such as: What are the strategies of people and companies whose objective is to capture our attention? How is creativity and technology evolving to attract our attention? How can we, in the midst of this abundance of supply, access better content? The book also gathers the opinion of the greatest experts in capturing attention in the broadest sense, as they all compete: series, video games, music, cinema, sports, podcasts, digital creators and of course advertising.

    Real Madrid, a mythical club if ever there was one, the most successful in the world, has forged its legend on a large number of play-offs and matches in which everything seemed irretrievably lost. Circumstances had conspired against them in such a way that the majority of fans (of any team) did not foresee the slightest possibility of counteracting them. But, in an almost miraculous way, defying the elementary logic of soccer, the Madrid players were capable on more than a few occasions of breaking all the odds to overcome the most adverse score lines, with an enormous outpouring of dedication, courage and talent. This book gathers in great detail Madrid's most memorable comebacks in European competitions. Its author has compiled testimonies, anecdotes and incidents to offer a work that makes the reader relive in his heart indelible moments, touched by magic.
