George Michael
La biografía definitiva y actualizada de uno de los grandes iconos del pop del siglo XX. La figura de George Michael siempre fue un enigma. Una de las grandes súper estrellas planetarias del pop, su vida privada siempre fue ferozmente protegida. Desde la formación de Wham en 1981, encontró la fama y la fortuna con la que siempre había soñado. Su música transformó por completo el pop de la década de los años ochenta, a pesar de haber crecido en una familia completamente disfuncional, en la que su padre proclamó públicamente que George carecía de todo tipo de talento. Wham se desintegró en 1986, y es ese mismo año cuando Michael decidió comenzar su carrera en solitario. Durante...
Seduced and Betrayed
Microfinance began as the disbursement of tiny loans to the poor, which they could use to undertake informal income-generating activities. It went on to become one of the most popular international development policies of all time and a mainstay of local development and antipoverty programs across the Global South. The contributors to this multidisciplinary volume consider the origins, evolution, and outcomes of microfinance from a variety of perspectives and contend that it has been an unsuccessful approach to development. The contributors contend that over the last twenty years, microfinance policies have exacerbated poverty and exclusion, undermined gender empowerment, underpinned a massive growth in inequality, destroyed solidarity and trust in the community, and, overall, manifestly weakened those local economies of the Global South where it reached critical mass. They use qualitative anthropological, economic, and political-economic research to unpack the ideas and values that have allowed microfinance to “seduce” the world and blind so many to its corrosive effects.
Financing the Entrepreneurial Venture
Financing the Entrepreneurial Venture focuses on financial management within entrepreneurial firms. Most of these are young firms, although some are more established. The book examines these firms at all phases of their life cycle, from the initial idea generation to the ultimate harvesting of the venture. The book covers firms in a diverse set of industries including high technology, low technology and services. A significant fraction of the cases focus on non-U.S. ventures. Additionally, the issues of gender and diversity are addressed in a number of settings.

Updates in Ocular Therapeutics and Surgery, volume II
Building on the success of Updates in Ocular Therapeutics and Surgery, we are pleased to launch Volume II of this Research Topic. Ophthalmology is a field of medicine that has grown rapidly during the last few decades. Several new and promising treatments have become available for eye conditions, including age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal vein occlusions, diabetic macular oedema, genetic disorders, uveitis and inflammations. On the other hand, recent technological developments and advanced surgical techniques have drastically changed the daily practice of eye surgeons, with new surgical options resulting in safer, faster, and more precise surgery. This Research Topic aims to summarise modern therapeutic and surgical approaches on ocular diseases, adding a valuable contribution to our existing knowledge, to describe the current state-of-the-art, as well as to provide directions for future research.
