    Summary:
    A monumental retelling of world history through the lens of maritime enterprise, revealing in breathtaking depth how people first came into contact with one another by ocean and river, lake and stream, and how goods, languages, religions, and entire cultures spread across and along the world's waterways, bringing together civilizations and defining what makes us most human. Lincoln Paine takes us back to the origins of long-distance migration by sea with our ancestors' first forays from Africa and Eurasia to Australia and the Americas. He demonstrates the critical role of maritime trade to the civilizations of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Indus Valley. He reacquaints us with the great seafaring cultures of antiquity like those of the Phoenicians and Greeks as well as those of India and Southeast and East Asia, who parlayed their navigational skills, shipbuilding techniques, and commercial acumen to establish thriving overseas colonies and trade routes in the centuries leading up to the age of European expansion. And finally, his narrative traces how commercial shipping and naval warfare brought about the enormous demographic, cultural, and political changes that have globalized the world throughout the post-Cold War era.

    Title: The Wall and the Gate
    Author: Michael Sfard
    Narrator: Jonathan Davis
    Format: Unabridged

    Summary:
    A farmer from a village in the occupied West Bank, cut off from his olive groves by the construction of Israel's controversial separation wall, asked Israeli human rights lawyer Michael Sfard to petition the courts to allow a gate to be built in the wall. While the gate would provide immediate relief for the farmer, would it not also confer legitimacy on the wall and on the court that deems it legal? The defense of human rights is often marked by such ethical dilemmas, which are especially acute in Israel, where lawyers have for decades sought redress for the abuse of Palestinian rights in the country's High Court - that is, in the court of the abuser. In The Wall and the Gate, Michael Sfard chronicles this struggle - a story that has never before been fully told - and in the process engages the core principles of human rights legal ethics. Sfard recounts the unfolding of key cases and issues, ranging from confiscation of land, deportations, the creation of settlements, punitive home demolitions, torture, and targeted killings - all actions considered violations of international law. In the process, he lays bare the reality of the occupation and the lives of the people who must contend with that reality.

    Resumen:
    La historia de una dinastía que ha sabido, como ninguna otra, adaptarse en cada momento al contexto político que les rodeaba y convertirse en la más poderosa de la historia de Europa. La historia de los Borbones tiene una innegable relevancia actual en la historia de España, es una dinastía que ha sabido mantener sus señas de identidad y perpetuarse con más o menos luces y más o menos sombras hasta la actualidad, renovándose cuando ha sido preciso gracias a su fabulosa capacidad de adaptación y su diplomacia. Campechanos, adúlteros en la mayoría de los casos pero con una enorme cercanía a su pueblo y con gran capacidad de gobierno, la historia de los Borbones es un relato apasionante contado por Juan Granados con el rigor de un tratado sesudo y el ritmo de las mejores novelas.Desde el ascenso de Felipe de Anjou al trono como Felipe V hasta la actualidad, la historia de España ha ido ligada a la dinastía de los Borbones: expulsados del país dos veces para instaurar sendas repúblicas, restituidos de nuevo, con poder absoluto o garantizando el funcionamiento de la democracia constitucional, la ascendencia de Juan Carlos I ha determinado desde el S. XVIII el destino político de España. Nos presenta Juan Granados un audio libro ameno, lleno de anécdotas y curiosidades mezcladas con el estudio histórico de personalidades como Fernando VI que impulsó una auténtica revolución industrial y productiva, o Fernando VII que acabó dos veces con un sistema constitucional o incluso Alfonso XIII que fue destronado como resultado de unas elecciones municipales. Razones para comprar la obra: Una obra fundamental para comprender la compleja relación que el pueblo español tiene con sus monarcas, esencial para descubrir que ciertos rasgos de carácter de los Borbones han llegado a la actualidad como su capacidad política y su cercanía al pueblo.
