Half a century after the events that took place in Chile during the period 1965-1973, history-loving readers can now know a version closer to the real truth. Historians have dealt, almost exclusively, with the historical development following the military pronunciamiento of September 11, 1973. Chile 1973 is an essential document to understand what happened before that date. The essay gathers the most relevant testimonies of the protagonists that marked the life of the country during the last thirty years of the 20th century. It also has the wisdom of interspersing the speeches of President Salvador Allende, the writings left by Generals Carlos Prats and Augusto Pinochet, or Admirals Fernando Porta and José Toribio Merino, as well as those of some of Allende's political friends, such as Fernando Alegría, Osvaldo Puccio and Hernán de Canto. The author has undertaken an arduous task, 50 years later, tracking down information in the magazines and newspapers of the time, in order to place each personage in his or her place and circumstances, debunk myths and contribute to a more objective vision of the events that so marked the future of Chile and that continue to have such an influence today.

In the old house in an arid area near Rio Tinto, a place far from the world, Maria and Andrew have been together all their lives. In her seventies, she clings to memories and to what is left of her husband: an almost inert body in the terminal stage of Alzheimer's disease. One night, however, they receive a visit that will change everything. A horrifying creature enters the bedroom where Andres rests and seems to want to snatch what little life he has left. With a hunting shotgun Maria manages to shoot the creature down. Days later, Andres' breathing stops and Maria is completely broken, lost... Until, hours later, suddenly, another creature appears. But this new apparition will be a great hope for Maria. Her husband, transformed into a creature of the night, levitates above the ground and seeks to feed on her blood.

To think that, because of their apparent innocence, children cannot become murderers is a tremendous mistake. Sometimes, as is the case with those of the Lord of War or the Islamic State, they are forced to kill in order to survive. Other times they suffer from some mental pathology that leads them to murder, either because of their life circumstances or they simply take pleasure in it. Psychopathic personality structures, from childhood, show a marked antisocial behavior with an uninhibited character. Unfortunately, their disturbance has no age and even as children or adolescents they are impulsive, violent and incapable of forming lasting emotional relationships. They are capable of violence that apparently only adults are capable of. However, the study of these children is often controversial because, as minors, the law does not hold them responsible for their actions. The family origins that have influenced the development of child murderers and their criminal behavior are difficult to determine exactly, due to the complex nature of the cases. But there are also frequent patterns among child murderers: a history of physical, emotional or neglectful abuse and an inability to control their emotions. The authors, César Alcalá, a leading historian, and Blanca Navarro, Doctor of Psychiatry, present a series of cases in order to study the circumstances and resolve each of the cases presented in this essay with an exhaustive forensic psychiatric analysis. Undoubtedly, this is the definitive informative work for all those interested in criminalistics and in understanding the moral behavior of human beings.

"Of all the emotions that our children experience, I believe that sadness is one of those that is hardest for us to learn to deal with, and not because it bothers us as parents or caretakers, but because it breaks our hearts to see them in such pain and not be able to change the harshness of the situation, as in the case of the death of a person we love. There are no ABCs that tell us step by step what to do at such times. Each family processes experiences in specific ways. And even with some light on how to approach this situation with our children, it is very likely that the pain of the moment can silence the brilliance of the theory. I have written this guide from my own experience and from my desire to continue to maintain a vision full of inclusion, love and respect for our children even in times of loss, situations in which, unfortunately, in some contexts they are still excluded precisely because they are children. The guide will help you both if you are going through a process of mourning the significant death of a loved one and also if you want to have an idea of how to approach the concept of death with your children or students."--Provided by publisher.

There are atheist Jews and believing Jews, Israeli Jews and Jews of other nations. There is Sephardic Judaism, Ashkenazi Judaism, Mizrachi Judaism and Falasha Judaism. Reform, ultra-Orthodox or Reconstructionist Judaism. Because Judaism is not only a religion, nor a lineage, nor a nation... but then, what is it? These pages shed light on the first monotheistic religion organized around the temple of Jerusalem, a fact that coincides with the writing of most of the biblical texts. They coexisted with Egyptians, Babylonians, Phoenicians or Sumerians... and when these peoples disappeared, the Jews continue to exist. Their culture, language, laws and religion have remained intact even after being expelled from their homeland and dispersed throughout the world. During their exile they developed special rules for living through rabbinical works, such as the Talmud, which provided them with a moral compass to live by, no matter where they ended up.... Even the Holocaust failed to decimate their faith.

Why do we wear the azulgrana? Why is FCB more than just a club? How did the nickname Barça come about? Who were the soccer idols of our grandparents? Behind the shield hides the legend of a club. From the mythical note in a newspaper with which Gamper announced the founding of the team to Luis Enrique's hat-trick, more than 100 years have passed, full of colossal myths, epic feats, pyrrhic victories, hilarious anecdotes and incomprehensible defeats that have remained hidden in the mists of memory, but that have marked the identity of the biggest club in the world of soccer. An exciting reading that will take you to the old stands of Les Corts, will make you enjoy the mythical Barça of the Five Cups, Iniesta's goal, Koeman's foul at Wembley or Guardiola's sex tete, that will make you suffer with the defeat of the final of the square posts and vibrate with the memory of the Bernabéu standing up applauding Ronaldinho. You will discover why Barça is not just the name of a team or an inimitable style of play, but a genuine way of feeling the colors. The Culés of today are heirs of a prodigious soccer legacy that has managed to stand as the standard of a unique and recognizable soccer philosophy in the whole world, whose maxim is that the how is more important than the what.

For those who doubt the story as we have been told, this book is a fascinating journey through the curiosities, mysteries and myths about the Bible and Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus was not born in Bethlehem in the year 0, but in Nazareth six years earlier (6 B.C.), nor was he born in December, but in March or April, and he was never worshipped by kings or magi. Mary had at least six children and was not a perpetual virgin. Jesus was not white. He must have been short, black or of very dark skin and gray hair because he did not die when he was 33 years old but close to 42, almost an old man at that time. Very possibly he married and had offspring and was condemned along with several of his men for his political-religious activity, being buried in the common grave destined to the seditious. This would be the closest profile to the historical Jesus based on the studies of exegetes, paleographers and scientists in the last century. With an informative and entertaining style, the author makes a documented tour of the unusual and silenced aspects of the Bible and Jesus of Nazareth, addressing such interesting questions as: Why did the wife of God disappear from the Jewish pantheon? Is the Bible a plagiarism of ancient profane rites? Was the father of Jesus a Roman soldier? Did Jesus have a twin brother with whom he was confused? Did he marry? Did he have descendants?

Beyond world crises, wars, pandemics, ecological disasters and natural catastrophes, it seems that the earth is giving undeniable signs of help. Nature in its entirety of beings and biodiversity is launching in these times a call to the human being asking for a great change in our consciences. We are witnessing a collective mobilization that has decided to abandon consumerist materialism to return to the spiritual and sacred dimension that unites us both to the inner being and to the being of our planet. This integration with the powerful forces of Mother Nature is an ethical and social movement supported by the ancestral values of shamanism, a universalist philosophy that clings to the laws of heaven and earth, to the cycles of time, to the influences of the stars and to the energy that circulates and moves among all beings, seeing in each one a sacred and luminous essence. International shamanic leader Léo Artese offers in this book a compendium of wisdom laying the foundations of this cultural movement steeped in ecological activism, nutritional activism and ethical activism, giving the keys to respond to the call of this planet to a profound change in our lifestyles, our food and our values.
