The Struggle for Catalonia
Analyses with rare impartiality what sets the Catalans apart from Spain, and how the separatist debate is playing out.
The Handless Maiden
In 1502, a decade of increasing tension between Muslims and Christians in Spain culminated in a royal decree that Muslims in Castile wanting to remain had to convert to Christianity. Mary Elizabeth Perry uses this event as the starting point for a remarkable exploration of how Moriscos, converted Muslims and their descendants, responded to their increasing disempowerment in sixteenth- and early-seventeenth-century Spain. Stepping beyond traditional histories that have emphasized armed conflict from the view of victors, The Handless Maiden focuses on Morisco women.

PRISA
Un retrato descarnado del mayor grupo de comunicación español de la democracia En el principio existía Jesús Polanco..., pero pronto apareció Juan Luis Cebrián, y entre ambos celebraron el pacto de sangre que está en el origen de El País. Desde entonces son muchos los hitos que jalonan el devenir de Prisa y de su principal periódico: el asalto al de Polanco en el accionariado de Prisa, a comienzos de los años 80 (y su historia oculta); la realidad de la "Operación Trevijano"; el caso Sogecable; el rescate de la bancarrota por el establishment político y empresarial español a fondo perdido, con el patrocinio de una Gobierno del PP que necesitaba El País como punta de lanza contra el golpe separatista catalán, o la batalla final entre los fondos buitres y un Cebrián que les retó a desbancarle, con una advertencia que sonó a intimidación: "Prisa soy yo". De todo ello se habla en este libro, una rigurosa investigación que ofrece un retrato descarnado del mayor grupo de comunicación español de la democracia, de sus días de gloria y de su decadencia.
