Hadas
Dentro de la trilogía denominada genéricamente como "Guía de los seres mágicos de España" toca el turno ahora de los espíritus femeninos de la Naturaleza, que no son otros que las fascinadoras hadas. Ha llegado la hora de rescatarlas, pero no de resucitarlas, pues ellas siempre han estado aquí, con nosotros, en nuestro mundo. Tan sólo es el momento de sacarlas del olvido, de desempolvar sus tradiciones, de contar una vez más sus leyendas, de rememorarlas con todas sus cualidades, virtudes y defectos. Aprenderemos a conocerlas un poco mejor y, por lo tanto, a amarlas, a respetarlas y a temerlas. En este libro hablaremos de todas ellas: de las mouras gallegas, de las xanas asturianas,...
The Leatherback Turtle
The most comprehensive book ever written on leatherback sea turtles. Weighing as much as 2,000 pounds and reaching lengths of over seven feet, leatherback turtles are the world’s largest reptile. These unusual sea turtles have a thick, pliable shell that helps them to withstand great depths—they can swim more than one thousand meters below the surface in search of food. And what food source sustains these goliaths? Their diet consists almost exclusively of jellyfish, a meal they crisscross the oceans to find. Leatherbacks have been declining in recent decades, and some predict they will be gone by the end of this century. Why? Because of two primary factors: human redevelopment of nestin...

Duendes
Esta obra es un estudio pormenorizado sobre los escurridizos duendes españoles: quiénes son, dónde habitan, qué comen, cómo se divierten y cuántas variedades existen a lo largo y ancho de nuestra geografía. Podemos afirmar que es la investigación más completa y rigurosa que sobre estos diminutos seres (de cuya existencia algunos dudan) se ha realizado hasta hoy. Éste es un aspecto de nuestro folclore casi olvidado y relegado, rescatado por dos jóvenes investigadores que, con tesón, han ahondado en las costumbres, mitos y leyendas de cada comunidad autónoma, para presentarnos una visión de conjunto, y no meramente local, de la historia oculta de los duendes de España. El presen...

Car Safety Wars
Car Safety Wars is a gripping history of the hundred-year struggle to improve the safety of American automobiles and save lives on the highways. Described as the “equivalent of war” by the Supreme Court, the battle involved the automobile industry, unsung and long-forgotten safety heroes, at least six US Presidents, a reluctant Congress, new auto technologies, and, most of all, the mindset of the American public: would they demand and be willing to pay for safer cars? The “Car Safety Wars” were at first won by consumers and safety advocates. The major victory was the enactment in 1966 of a ground breaking federal safety law. The safety act was pushed through Congress over the bitter ...
