¡Al rico helado!: el barco de guerra más inusual Las fuerzas de la Marina de Guerra de los Estados Unidos que combatían en el Pacífico Sur se enfrentaban a tres problemas principales: los soldados japoneses, la baja moral de las tropas y un clima caluroso. Tratando de dar soluciones al segundo y tercero de estos problemas, el Servicio de Inteligencia del ejército estadounidense hizo una lista de posibles remedios¿ y el helado era la respuesta ideal. El poder reconstituyente del helado fue tomado tan en serio que en 1945 se construyó el barco militar más inusual de la Segunda Guerra Mundial: se le conoció como el "Ice Cream Barge" y estaba destinado exclusivamente a la fabricación y distribución de toneladas y toneladas de helado entre los barcos y bases militares desplegadas en el Pacífico Sur. El "Ice Cream Barge", además de ser la primera heladería flotante y ambulante del mundo, sin duda hizo las delicias de muchos de aquellos soldados y probablemente les supuso un cierto apoyo moral mientras combatían en aquellos campos de batalla tan alejados de su hogar. Sabemos que las guerras hacen que aflore lo mejor y lo peor del hombre, y ¡Fuego a discreción! va de todo eso, de historias humanas en las que personajes casi anónimos tomaron decisiones arriesgadas con resultados sorprendentes, de hombres y mujeres ninguneados por la historia que aquí tendrán su pequeño reconocimiento, de estrategias y planes maquiavélicos, disparatados o afortunados, de historias donde la torpeza, el ingenio, el heroísmo o la suerte de sus protagonistas nos arrancarán sonrisas y caras de asombro, y también de historias que nos conmoverán y nos harán compartir sentimientos con aquellos que las vivieron.

From New York Times bestselling author Sam Kean comes incredible stories of science, history, finance, mythology, the arts, medicine, and more, as told by the Periodic Table. Why did Gandhi hate iodine (I, 53)? How did radium (Ra, 88) nearly ruin Marie Curie's reputation? And why is gallium (Ga, 31) the go-to element for laboratory pranksters?* The Periodic Table is a crowning scientific achievement, but it's also a treasure trove of adventure, betrayal, and obsession. These fascinating tales follow every element on the table as they play out their parts in human history, and in the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them. THE DISAPPEARING SPOON masterfully fuses science with the classic lore of invention, investigation, and discovery--from the Big Bang through the end of time. *Though solid at room temperature, gallium is a moldable metal that melts at 84 degrees Fahrenheit. A classic science prank is to mold gallium spoons, serve them with tea, and watch guests recoil as their utensils disappear.

‘One of the most powerful books in the social sciences ever written. ... A must-read’ Thomas Piketty 'The twentieth century's most prophetic critic of capitalism' Prospect Karl Polanyi's landmark 1944 work is one of the earliest and most powerful critiques of unregulated markets. Tracing the history of capitalism from the great transformation of the industrial revolution onwards, he shows that there has been nothing 'natural' about the market state. Instead of reducing human relations and our environment to mere commodities, the economy must always be embedded in civil society. Describing the 'avalanche of social dislocation' of his time, Polanyi’s hugely influential work is a passionate call to protect our common humanity. ‘Polanyi's vision for an alternative economy re-embedded in politics and social relations offers a refreshing alternative’ Guardian ‘Polanyi exposes the myth of the free market’ Joseph Stiglitz With a new introduction by Gareth Dale

Din această pasiune tămăduitoare se va naşte Eva, botezată astfel ca să iubească viaţa.

Why do people work hard, and take pride in what they do? This book, a philosophically-minded enquiry into practical activity of many different kinds past and present, is about what happens when people try to do a good job. It asks us to think about the true meaning of skill in the 'skills society' and argues that pure competition is a poor way to achieve quality work. Sennett suggests, instead, that there is a craftsman in every human being, which can sometimes be enormously motivating and inspiring - and can also in other circumstances make individuals obsessive and frustrated. The Craftsman shows how history has drawn fault-lines between craftsman and artist, maker and user, technique and expression, practice and theory, and that individuals' pride in their work, as well as modern society in general, suffers from these historical divisions. But the past lives of crafts and craftsmen show us ways of working (using tools, acquiring skills, thinking about materials) which provide rewarding alternative ways for people to utilise their talents. We need to recognise this if motivations are to be understood and lives made as fulfilling as possible.
