Sacred Realism
In this thoughtful and compelling book, leading Spanish literature scholar Noël Valis re-examines the role of Catholicism in the modern Spanish novel. While other studies of fiction and faith have focused largely on religious themes, Sacred Realism views the religious impulse as a crisis of modernity: a fundamental catalyst in the creative and moral development of Spanish narrative.
Molecular Biology of Human Cancers
Cancer research is now an interdisciplinary effort requiring a basic knowledge of commonly used terms, facts, issues, and concepts. This interdisciplinary book meets this need, providing an authoritative overview to the field. It presents many of the molecules and mechanisms generally important in human cancers and examines a broad, but exemplary, selection of cancers. In addition, cancer research has now reached a critical stage, in which the accumulated knowledge on molecular mechanisms is gradually translated into improved prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. This book summarizes the state, pitfalls, and potential of these efforts.

Living the Death of Democracy in Spain
This volume brings together new interdisciplinary perspectives on the Spanish Civil War, its victims, its contentious ending, and its aftermath. In exploring the slow demise of the Spanish Republic and the course of the Civil War, the authors have chosen to range in turn over cinematic, literary and historical depictions of the era. In addition, reactions elsewhere in Europe to the Spanish conflict are examined; the role of the International Brigades is looked at afresh; the fate of children displaced during the Civil War is explored; and the Spanish anarcho-syndicalist movement is revisited. The volume shows that to be any kind of soldier in the armies of the Republic, or even to be seen as...
Barcelona and Madrid
For hundreds of years, Barcelona and Madrid have shared a deep rivalry. Throughout history, they have competed in practically every aspect of social life, sport, politics, and culture. While competition between cities is commonplace in many nations around the world, in the case of Barcelona and Madrid it has been, on occasion, excessively antagonistic. Over time they have each tried to demonstrate that one was more modern than the other, or more avant-garde, or richer, or more athletic, and so on. Fortunately, the Spain of today is a democracy and every nation and region of the State has the liberty to act. As such, the rivalry between these two capitals has become productive not only for th...

Bon vent
Bon vent. Escrits sol·licitats és un compendi del treball d'articulista de Xavier Graset. La seva mirada, arrelada al seu poble, Vila-seca, s'estén per tot el Camp de Tarragona, i la Costa Daurada, fins a tot Catalunya. Els interrogants, la memòria i la consciència passen pel seu sedàs personal per qüestions que formen part dels seus neguits d'aquests últims anys. Neguits i passions, des de l'Estatut fins a l'AVE, Aznar, Zapatero, Pujol, Maragall i Montilla, moda, teatre, gastronomia, turisme. Sorneguer, irònic i punyent, Xavier Graset aconsegueix retratar alguns dels moments de la vida que ens han passat pel davant, combinant l'experiència personal amb l'interès col·lectiu.
