Pep Guardiola
Pep Guardiola is, without a doubt, the most successful football coach and teacher of the last 10 years. He revolutionised FC Barcelona and formed a team that was one of the best in the history of the sport. Now he follows Jupp Heynckes as coach of Bayern Munich and faces the pivotal question: Will he be able to keep the team’s quality or even improve it? Pep has become a legend, and in order to understand this, it is necessary to see behind the curtain and understand the man who constitutes the Guardiola System. What are the key values and principles that form the basis of his method? How did he form a unit with such diverse football stars? What can we learn from Pep? Miguel Angel Violán manages to make the ‘unknown Guardiola’ better known and illustrates in many informing and amusing anecdotes: The Philosophy that Changed the Game!

Lost? explores the gloried past, the moneyed present and the uncertain future of both Liverpool F.C. and the English game at large. Have they lost their way?

El malson de Chandos
Hugo von Hofmannsthal, a la Viena del 1902, imaginava un desesperat Philip Lord Chandos que escrivia al seu amic el filòsof Francis Bacon: "Les paraules ja no signifiquen res per a mi, se'm tornen com cendra i se'm desfan quan les vull fer servir, se'm podreixen com bolets passats a la boca". S'estava obrint en aquell temps un abisme, ja anunciat anys abans per Rimbaud i Mallarmé, per Nietzsche i per Graus, que distanciaria per sempre l'experiència de les paraules. Aquest llibre, guardonat amb el XV Premi a la Investigació en Comunicació de Masses del Consell de l'Audiovisual de Catalunya (CAC), proposa una descripció i una análisi d'aquesta crisi lingüística postmoderna i n'aplica el diagnòstic i els possibles remeis a dues crisis més, de carácter més disciplinari i reduït: la crisi del periodisme i la crisi de la teoria del periodisme.
Exorcising History
It is in this way that the plays lend themselves to Graham-Jones's examination of how personal and collective histories enter into theater production, in the creation of dramatic worlds that re-create and revise the "outside" world."--BOOK JACKET.
Troilo. A Theory of Everything
Writing about Troilo over a century after his birth and nearly fifty years after his death implies a certainty: the artist, who performed with him, in all but a few cases, no longer exist. That vast absence compels us to seek Troilo where he never left: the music. “Troilo: Biography of Argentina” is a music book, but also a precise and rigorous painting of a mobilized, vigorous and encompassing country where culture –and tango– were in the spotlight. It might well be read as a text that uncovers the keys of growth and decline of Argentina
Argentina and the United States
In the first English-language survey of Argentine-U.S. relations to appear in more than a decade, David M. K. Sheinin challenges the accepted view that confrontation has been the characteristic state of affairs between the two countries. Sheinin draws on both Spanish- and English-language sources in the United States, Argentina, Canada, and Great Britain to provide a broad perspective on the two centuries of shared U.S.-Argentine history with fresh focus in particular on cultural ties, nuclear politics in the cold war era, the politics of human rights, and Argentina's exit in 1991 from the nonaligned movement. From the perspectives of both countries, Sheinin discusses such topics as Pan-Amer...
