In today’s world, the acceleration of megatrends – increasing longevity and the explosion of technology among many others – are transforming life as we now know it. In The Perennials, bestselling author of 2030 Mauro Guillén unpacks a sweeping societal shift triggered by demographic and technological transformation. Guillén argues that outmoded terms like Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z have long been used to pigeonhole us into rigid categories and life stages, artificially preventing people from reaching their full potential.

La primera parte de una obra maestra sobre al amor, las relaciones humanas y el devenir del tiempo. En 1913 vio la luz esta primera entrega de uno de los ciclos novelísticos más admirables de la historia de la literatura: En busca del tiempo perdido, un camino iniciático y un análisis, de hondo calado filosófico, de la compleja relación del tiempo con la memoria, ese instrumento—formado por recuerdos, ensaciones, incluso sabores—para reapropiarse del pasado y de ese modo devolver su integridad al presente.

Mientras los seres humanos convivan, será necesaria la política. Maquiavelo, que lo sabía por su experiencia en el gobierno de la Florencia renacentista, escribió este tratado para analizar el modo en que los gobernantes consiguen el poder y lo conservan. Con ejemplos históricos, expone una filosofía política en la que el valor de las acciones se define a partir de su eficacia, inaugurando un realismo que se aleja de las corrientes moralistas y utópicas de su época.

When he grows up he wants to be a ‘poet with a bow-tie’, but for now he entertains himself playing pranks on the residents of his family’s poor Rio de Janeiro neighbourhood and inventing friends to play with. That is, until he meets a real friend, and his life begins to change.

All rookies need someone to take them under their wing and guide them through the early years as a firefighter. Unfortunately, no one is, or ever was, assigned the role of mentor to new firefighters. This audiobook solves that problem and fills in the gaps of a firefighter's training and preparation for life in the firehouse.

"Innovation is an act of love—or at least it should be. Always. It is a gesture of empathy, respect, generosity, of one human being’s devotion to another,” writes Mauro Porcini at the beginning of this extraordinary book. It is in part a memoir by one of the world’s leading designers—the first chief design officer at both 3M and Pepsi. But even more, it is a manifesto for a genuine, authentic, and deeply humanistic approach to design, one that aims to create personal and social value first and financial and economic value afterward.

Ricordare un tempo che è stato e non tornerà è un esercizio pericoloso. Cantare la fine di un mondo porta con sé il rischio di cedere alla nostalgia. Ma non è il rimpianto a guidare il racconto di Mauro Corona, bensì il bisogno di farsi testimone di un passato che i ricordi vanno a stanare di continuo. Come nella sua infanzia ertana era il susseguirsi dei mesi e delle stagioni a dettare i ritmi della vita, anche in questo scritto è il calendario a scandire la memoria, in un moto circolare lungo un anno che, dalla neve di gennaio, a quel bianco ritorna, per iniziare un nuovo ciclo.

When the precocious Zeze grows up, he wants to be a poet in a bow tie. But for now he entertains himself playing clever pranks on the residents of his Rio de Janeiro shantytown, stunts for which his parents and siblings punish him soundly. Now that his father is out of work, the beatings have become harsher, and life has gotten bleaker. Zeze’s only solace comes from his time at school, his hours secretly spent singing with a Bahian street musician, or his time of refuge with his magical orange tree, which both listens and offers him sage advice.

When Mauro Guerra immigrated to the United States with his family in 1982, he had perhaps $20 in his pocket and little knowledge of the way things worked in America. Feeling he had been taken advantage of after being charged a 17 percent interest rate on a loan for the purchase of his first used car, he immediately set out to learn everything he could about how financial matters are handled in his new country.

In questo canale Mauro Biglino raccoglie e racconta i risultati, le curiosità, le ipotesi, le deduzioni derivanti dal suo lavoro di traduttore dell'ebraico biblico masoretico. Il metodo di lavoro è caratterizzato da due elementi fondamentali: leggere e riportare quanto scritto letteralmente in quel codice ebraico e "fare finta" che ciò che vi è scritto sia vero. Ne emerge una chiave di lettura molto più concreta e molto più affascinante di quanto nei secoli ci è stato tramandato come verità assoluta e indiscutibile. La conoscenza procede attraverso la continua rimessa in discussione ...

Welcome to your next guitar practice book! We’ve all heard about the power of back-to-basics thinking, and as professional musicians and guitarists we (Mauro and I) truly believe in the power of breaking down all the processes of playing and making music. The guitar can be very complex when it’s taken as a whole, so let’s focus on the right hand.

Last year I had a chance to discuss guitar, guitar books, and music theory content with the Argentinean guitarist Mauro Pantin, and I immediately thought that we should find ways to collaborate, beyond the obvious performance angle. This new project — Get Ready for the Real Book: The Basic Foundations for Jazz Guitar — is our first collaboration and is meant to be a primer for guitarists who want to have enough theory background, conceptual understanding, and theoretical knowledge to dive into jazz, improvisation, and the real book. We hope you find it useful and informative. -- Tommy ...
