Abracadabra
Desde sus mismos orígenes, el cine ha estado fuertemente vinculado con el mundo de la magia escénica y el ilusionismo. Pioneros como Georges Méliès fueron, antes que cineastas, prestidigitadores, así que no es extraño que las trayectorias de ambas artes hayan estado siempre estrechamente entrelazadas. De esos vínculos, precisamente, trata este libro. Como en aquellas casetas que poblaban las antiguas ferias ambulantes, esperan al curioso en estas páginas cincuenta historias plagadas de misterios, trucos y prodigios. Descubrirá aquí el lector el doble vínculo —con el cine y la magia— de escritores de la talla de Gabriel García Márquez o Ray Bradbury. Se sorprenderá al conocer cómo cineastas como Tod Browning, Orson Welles o Woody Allen han reflejado en sus películas su pasión por el ilusionismo. Desfilarán ante sus ojos decenas de magos e ilusionistas, mentalistas y prestidigitadores, adivinos y estafadores de sonoros nombres y fascinantes vidas: de Hanussen a Houdini, del profesor Fassman al profesor Zovek, de Elmyr de Hory a Uri Geller y muchos, muchos más... Damas y caballeros, ocupen sus localidades: la función va a comenzar.

Faith and the Fury
In Spain, the five-year period following the proclamation of the Republic in April 1931 was marked by physical assaults upon the property and public ritual of the Spanish Catholic Church. These attacks were generally carried out by rural and urban anticlerical workers who were frustrated by the Republic's practical inability to tackle the Church's vast power. On July 17/18, 1936, a right-wing military rebellion divided Spain geographically, provoking the radical fragmentation of power in the territory which remained under Republican authority. The coup marked the beginning of a conflict which developed into a full-scale civil war. Anticlerical protagonists, with the reconfigured structure of...

Understanding Poverty
Understanding poverty and what to do about it, is perhaps the central concern of all of economics. Yet the lay public almost never gets to hear what leading professional economists have to say about it. This volume brings together twenty-eight essays by some of the world leaders in the field, who were invited to tell the lay reader about the most important things they have learnt from their research that relate to poverty. The essays cover a wide array of topics: the first essay is about how poverty gets measured. The next section is about the causes of poverty and its persistence, and the ideas range from the impact of colonialism and globalization to the problems of "excessive" population ...
Biomass Processing for Biofuels, Bioenergy and Chemicals
Biomass can be used to produce renewable electricity, thermal energy, transportation fuels (biofuels), and high-value functional chemicals. As an energy source, biomass can be used either directly via combustion to produce heat or indirectly after it is converted to one of many forms of bioenergy and biofuel via thermochemical or biochemical pathways. The conversion of biomass can be achieved using various advanced methods, which are broadly classified into thermochemical conversion, biochemical conversion, electrochemical conversion, and so on. Advanced development technologies and processes are able to convert biomass into alternative energy sources in solid (e.g., charcoal, biochar, and R...
