Three centuries of a family history that incite, more than to bask in the display of an absent aristocratic ancestry, to explore the details of a trajectory that begins in the British colonial world of north America, to anchor in the late 19th century in the wild frontier of the northeast of Santa Fe, Argentina. A panorama where the lights and shadows of lives that have left a deep mark are integrated.
The legend says that the Milky Way has been the path set by the Santiago Apostle since the Middle Ages, to guide pilgrims on the Camino until they reach his resting place. Indeed, the name of Compostela comes from Campus Stellae (a field of stars). In 2017, I had the opportunity to do the famous "Camino de Santiago" and, after walking over 850Km, I arrived. They were intense and moving 30 days, where I walked, laughed, and cried a lot. I met people from all over the world, but perhaps, the most important thing was that I got to know myself better. Without realising, it became an internal journey more than something external. During those days, I discovered how little I needed to be happy. Whoever had the possibility of doing the Camino and becoming a pilgrim, would surely understand. To all the rest, I hope with all my heart that this book moves you to do it. You will not regret it.

"Reach within and dare to dream" challenges us to get out of our comfort zone, test and improve ourselves. The author shares her extraordinary story that starts in the Patagonian Andes, passes east through ancient Europe, then onto India and Australia before returning west through north America to California. She tells us about her own experiences, the successes and failures, how these experiences, good or bad, can be used to take courage and carry out our dreams. She reflects, shares information from specialists and ideas from other authors. This invites us to enquire about ourselves on topics such as self-awareness, self-esteem, emotional management, and empowerment. Through exercises, she motivates us to venture into a process of introspection to overcome our fears or obstacles, learn from our mistakes, and discover our potential.

One of the most important brewing operations, especially in terms of product conditioning and brightness, is carbonation. In general, under or over-carbonation affects beer quality negatively. Knowing the process fundamentals will help us in our goal of obtaining a high-quality and consistent product. The theoretical bases of the carbonation process, basically describe the behaviour of gases in a liquid environment and can be condensed in a few mathematical equations that allow us to achieve good results if we applied it in an appropriate way. This book focuses on both natural and forced carbonation. It covers theory and practice and also includes chapters about the use of nitrogen and line balance of draft beer dispensing systems.
La frontera argentino-paraguaya ante el espejo se centra en el análisis de las regiones del Gran Chaco y del Oriente de la República del Paraguay en el periodo histórico contemporáneo. Las zonas fronterizas entre Paraguay y Argentina nos muestran el peso histórico de las poblaciones originarias, así como el significado del diseño de las naciones y de los dispositivos estatales desde el siglo xix. En el contexto de la celebración del Bicentenario de la Independencia de la República del Paraguay (1811-2011), los autores y las autoras de este libro esperan que la obra permita dibujar la porosidad y el paisaje de la zona que abre sus puertas en la Triple Frontera, en la región del Gran Chaco y en el espacio oriental paraguayo. La divulgación de la investigación colectiva, interuniversitaria e interdisciplinaria, del proyecto de investigación «Educación y ciudadanía: modelos de difusión de valores, instituciones democráticas y construcción del Estado en Paraguay» (2009-2012) es posible gracias a las subvenciones otorgadas por la Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional y Desarrollo (AECID).
