A hora e a vez de João Saldanha
Primeira biografia de João Saldanha, escrita pelo flamenguista Pedro Zamora (pseudônimo de Jocelyn Barreto Brasil Lima, aposentado como Brigageiro da Força Aérea Brasileira. Depois de cassado pelo Golpe de 1964, por ser um intelectual marxista, deu uma banana para a Ditadura e foi fazer o que gostava: falar e escrever sobre futebol, tendo trabalho em jornais e escrito muitos livros interessantíssimos, por seu apurado faro de boleiro convicto). Dividida em dez capítulos, a biografia detalha as faces do amigo botafoguense: o torcedor, o cronista, o treinador. E registra depoimentos de jogadores e ex-jogadores, jornalistas e torcedores, tudo com um só objetivo: provar que João Saldanha era, mesmo, a melhor escolha para o cargo de técnico da Seleção Brasileira nas Eliminatórias para a Copa do Mundo de 1970, no México.
De apito na boca
Este é um livro de muitos. Cada árbitro escolheu um tema e o desenvolveu da maneira que achou melhor. Alguns trataram das Regras do Futebol e de suas interpretações. Outros, focalizaram a situação e os problemas dos árbitros dentro e fora de campo. Um terceiro grupo contou suas experiências pessoais na atividade que escolheu. Um quarto focalizou episódios que presenciou. Enfim, cada um procurou transmitir ao leitor, nas condições de seus conhecimentos e sensibilidade, uma parcela de sua vivência do futebol.
Assim falou Neném Prancha
Assim Falou Neném Prancha. Este o título da obra de Jocelyn Brasil ou Pedro Zamora. Neném Prancha é uma história viva do futebol. Viu, ouviu e fala sobre o assunto nas esquinas e botecos. E o trabalho de Pedro Zamora, estudioso profundo do futebol, quase contemporâneo de Neném Prancha, levanta questões que também não foram só estudadas, mas testemunhadas. Em nosso País, três vezes campeão do Mundo, muitas experiências foram adquiridas. Mas poucas foram sistematizadas e esquematizadas em livro. Há como que uma espécie de resistência em nossos autores esportivos de passar além das biografias de craques ou cartolas. Neste trabalho, Pedro Zamora levanta questões e faz reviver...

Anarchism in Latin America
The available material in English discussing Latin American anarchism tends to be fragmentary, country-specific, or focused on single individuals. This new translation of Ángel Cappelletti's wide-ranging, country-by-country historical overview of anarchism's social and political achievements in fourteen Latin American nations is the first book-length regional history ever published in English. With a foreword by the translator. Ángel J. Cappelletti (1927–1995) was an Argentinian philosopher who taught at Simon Bolivar University in Venezuela. He is the author of over forty works primarily investigating philosophy and anarchism. Gabriel Palmer-Fernandez is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Youngstown State University.
Hitler's Private Library
He was, of course, a man better known for burning books than collecting them and yet by the time he died, aged 56, Adolf Hitler owned an estimated 16,000 volumes - the works of historians, philosophers, poets, playwrights and novelists. For the first time, Timothy W. Ryback offers a systematic examination of this remarkable collection. The volumes in Hitler's library are fascinating in themselves but it is the marginalia - the comments, the exclamation marks, the questions and underlinings - even the dirty thumbprints on the pages of a book he read in the trenches of the First World War - which are so revealing. Hitler's Private Library provides us with a remarkable view of Hitler's evolution - and unparalleled insights into his emotional and intellectual world. Utterly compelling, it is also a landmark in our understanding of the Third Reich.
Coronavirus Politics
COVID-19 is the most significant global crisis of any of our lifetimes. The numbers have been stupefying, whether of infection and mortality, the scale of public health measures, or the economic consequences of shutdown. Coronavirus Politics identifies key threads in the global comparative discussion that continue to shed light on COVID-19 and shape debates about what it means for scholarship in health and comparative politics. Editors Scott L. Greer, Elizabeth J. King, Elize Massard da Fonseca, and André Peralta-Santos bring together over 30 authors versed in politics and the health issues in order to understand the health policy decisions, the public health interventions, the social policy decisions, their interactions, and the reasons. The book’s coverage is global, with a wide range of key and exemplary countries, and contains a mixture of comparative, thematic, and templated country studies. All go beyond reporting and monitoring to develop explanations that draw on the authors' expertise while engaging in structured conversations across the book.
