One boy, one boat, one tiger . . .
After the tragic sinking of a cargo ship, a solitary lifeboat remains bobbing on the wild, blue Pacific.
The only survivors from the wreck are a sixteen year-old boy named Pi, a hyena, a zebra (with a broken leg), a female orang-utan - and a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger. The scene is set for one of the most extraordinary and best-loved works of fiction in recent years.

" An] earth-shaking expos of clerical corruption." - National Catholic Reporter
In the Closet of the Vatican exposes the rot at the heart of the Vatican and the Roman Catholic Church today. Now in a revised translation and with updated material, this brilliant piece of investigative writing is based on four years' authoritative research, including extensive interviews with those in power.
The celibacy of priests, the condemnation of the use of contraceptives, the cover up of countless cases of sexual abuse, the resignation of Benedict XVI, misogyny among the clergy, the dramatic fall in Europe of the number of vocations to the priesthood, the plotting against Pope Francis--all these issues are clouded in mystery and secrecy.
In the Closet of the Vatican is a book that reveals these secrets and penetrates this enigma. It derives from a system founded on a clerical culture of secrecy which starts in junior seminaries and continues right up to the Vatican itself. It is based on the double lives of priests and on extreme homophobia. The resulting schizophrenia in the Church is hard to fathom. But the more a prelate is homophobic, the more likely it is that he is himself gay.
"Behind rigidity there is always something hidden, in many cases a double life." These are the words of Pope Francis himself and with them the Pope has unlocked the Closet.
No one can claim to really understand the Catholic Church today until they have read this book. It reveals a truth that is extraordinary and disturbing.

Описание: From the back cover of On the Origin of Hockey:
The debate about the origin of hockey appears to be as old as the debate about the origin of species, though if we compare the number of pages dedicated in every day's newspapers to hockey and those dedicated to animals and plants, the relative importance of each quickly becomes obvious (well, to hockey fans at least).
Hockey historians have been looking for the smallest piece of evidence that would reveal the secrets of the origin of hockey. However a wealth of evidence is available - as soon as one starts looking in the right place. This book does not present a new theory based on slivers of evidence. It is a presentation of known facts about the origins of hockey, based on tens of thousands of words, from hundreds of sources, written about hockey played on the ice, with skates, before Montreal's first recorded game.
Carl Gid n is a medical doctor who has been researching the origins of hockey for more than two decades. He made news in 2008, together with Patrick Houda, when they announced their discovery of a reference to ice hockey played in 1839 on Chippawa Creek (Niagara Falls, Ontario).
Sports journalist Patrick Houda has also been researching the origins of hockey for over two decades and teamed up with Gid n on several projects since the mid-1990s. It was the two of them who, from Sweden, wrote biographies for the main Canadian pioneers of hockey, including the eighteen players who participated in the first recorded game played in Montreal, in 1875.
As a member (past president) of the Society for International Hockey Research, Montreal-region-based Jean-Patrice Martel was most impressed by the findings of Gid n and Houda, and always pleaded that they should publish them. The trio finally teamed up to produce this book, with the hopes of reinvigorating the debate on hockey's origins and setting it on sound foundations.

Описание: How Not to Be Governed explores the contemporary debates and questions concerning anarchism in our own time. The authors address the political failures of earlier practices of anarchism, and the claim that anarchism is impracticable, by examining the anarchisms that have been theorized and practiced in the midst of these supposed failures. The authors revive the possibility of anarchism even as they examine it with a critical lens. Rather than breaking with prior anarchist practices, this volume reveals the central values and tactics of anarchism that remain with us, practiced even in the most unlikely and 'impossible' contexts.

Описание: Esta obra ha sido creado con la magia de la emoci n volcada en palabras, frases, p rrafos, diagramas, ejemplos vivos, escrito con un lenguaje simple y ameno, con el fin de que cualquier lector entienda lo que est leyendo y no s lo eso, sino que adem s se interese y por qu no, se encante con la magia de la emoci n. Lo que busco en este trabajo no es otra cosa que generar el primer paso necesario para liberarse de los moldes mal aprendidos que nos paralizan y nos condenan, la aceptaci n de lo que estamos haciendo mal, o m s bien que no nos favorece. Esta obra contiene ejemplos clarificadores, en los cuales muchas personas ver n reflejada su forma de actuar y que les permitir abrir su mente a la posibilidad de modificar sus acciones. El segundo gran objetivo, es dar a conocer ciertas pautas u orientaciones en este hermoso proceso de darse cuenta que el mal manejo de nuestras emociones nos est llenando de problemas. Las pautas est n orientadas a demostrar por qu nos estamos equivocando y luego pautas de c mo modificar conductas, en base al manejo adecuado de nuestras emociones. No se trata de evitar las emociones, de ninguna manera, sino m s bien de manejarlas adecuadamente, esto es, para un resultado personal conveniente. Es dif cil quedar indiferente a la infelicidad que hoy existe en nuestra sociedad, y m s a n c mo las personas creen que su desdicha responde a factores netamente externos. Ah est el aporte de esta obra. En que el lector pueda detenerse, pensar, reflexionar y darse cuenta que es " l" quien tiene el "poder" de generar un cambio en su vida y en la de sus cercanos. Una vez que se comienza esto no se detiene, pues enriquece profundamente en lo personal e ntimo del ser, es M GICO.
