Miradas plurales al fenómeno humano II
En este segundo volumen se ha pretendido dar espacio para plantear y reflexionar algunos temas que aportan diferentes fenómenos, manifestaciones o problemas que permiten ampliar el conocimiento y la comprensión de las plurales realidades del fenómeno humano: aspectos biológicos, culturales, sociales, comportamentales y emocionales que hacen del primate humano un animal paradójico y una especie politípica y polimórfica.
Let's Go to Hell
The Butthole Surfers remain one of the most enigmatic bands in the history of rock music. Most of their records have no information of any kind, and often with the suggestion that you play them at 69 rpm.... They lived like nomads through much of the 1980s, and built their reputation upon tours that never ended, and shows that resembled hedonistic acid tests. They left a heap of former band members in their wake, and have often alienated as many fans as they've attracted. Here for the first time is the complete story of one of the most controversial and dangerous bands to have emerged from the ashes of the punk rock movement. 'Let's Go to Hell' compiles the scattered memories into the first comprehensive overview of the band. Featuring exclusive interviews, tons of rare and unpublished photographs, and analysis of the band's vast recorded (and unrecorded) efforts, 'Let's Go to Hell' finally tells the story that was thought (and often hoped) would never be told...
Harry Partch, Hobo Composer
During the Great Depression, Harry Partch rode the railways, following the fruit harvest across the country. From his experience among hoboes he found what he called ""a fountainhead of pure musical Americana."" Although he later wrote immense stage works for instruments of his own creation, he is still regularly called a hobo composer for the compositions that grew out of this period of his life. Yet few have questioned the label''s impact on his musical output, compositional life, and reception. Focusing on Partch the person alongside the cultural icon he represented, this study examines Par.
El Plet de l’Escó. Una microhistòria sobre les comunitats locals, el règim senyorial i la Contrareforma a la Catalunya del 1600
L’autor aprofita el plet de l’escó a Vilassar per a posar en relleu les disputes per ocupar l’escó preeminent a l’església entre el senyor feudal i els representants reials (batlle, universitat) i els canvis en una societat en transformació.
Read & Burn
Read & Burn is the first serious, in-depth appraisal of Wire, one of the most influential British bands to emerge during the punk era. If Wire were briefly a punk band, however, it was largely by historical accident. Despite the fact that they had complicated and transformed that category almost before they'd begun, they seem never to have quite escaped the label. Be it punk, post-punk, or art-punk, critics have clung onto the p-word in an attempt to capture the essence of Wire's innovative uniqueness. But their story - which honours punk's original yet quickly forgotten commitment to the new - is one of constant remaking and remodelling, one that stubbornly resists reduction to a single identity. As a result, the group's projects have always balanced uneasily between artistic endeavour and the need for commercial sustainability, played out against the backdrop of the musicians' perennially complex creative relationships. Tracing Wire's diverse output from 1977 up until the present, Read & Burn seeks to do justice to their highly influential and restlessly inventive body of work.

En esta obra el lector descubrirá en definitiva, la manera en la que la trama apasionante de la investigación científica se entreteje con las circunstancias sociales que la rodean, en este caso las que caracterizaban la sociedad española de la primera mitad del siglo XX, sin las cuales no sería posible comprender la obra científica de aquellos pioneros de la catálisis.
