Welcome to the world of robots like you've never seen before! In his new graphic humor book, Sergio Villalobo takes us on a hilarious journey through a universe of automatons, circuits, and loose screws.

¡Bienvenidos al mundo de los robots como nunca lo habían visto! En su nuevo libro de humor gráfico, Sergio Alejandro Villalobo nos lleva a un viaje hilarante a través de un universo de autómatas, circuitos y tornillos sueltos. Si en su primer libro nos hizo reír a carcajadas, en esta ocasión nos sorprende con una perspicaz mirada al fascinante mundo de los robots, demostrando su maestría en el arte de hacer humor con unas pocas líneas y trazos ingeniosos.
Los dibujos de Villalobo tienen una doble virtud: transmiten humor y ternura al mismo tiempo, lo cual no es poco en estos tiempos violentos que corren, en donde vivimos apurados persiguiendo vaya uno a saber qué zanahoria. Aquí ocurre todo lo contrario a esa vorágine: los chistes de Sergio nos invitan a detenernos y observar; cada dibujo es distinto y nos transmite cosas diferentes, algunos nos generan risas y otros nos dejan pensando. La virtud de estos cuadritos también viaja por partida doble: tienen la ventaja de la síntesis y el impacto a primera vista, lo cual en el humor gráfico es fundamental a la hora de transmitir una idea. Estos chistes nos recuerdan lo mejor del humorismo gráfico argentino, por la simpleza del trazo y el remate efectivo. Viuti, Quino y Caloi supieron abrevar en esas aguas como ninguno.

This book concisely describes ways in which today's standard British English speech differs from the upper-class accent of the last century, Received Pronunciation, which many now find old-fashioned or even comic. In doing so it provides a much-needed update to the existing RP-based descriptions by which the sound system of British English is still known to many around the world. The book opens with an account of the rise and fall of RP, before turning to a systematic analysis of the phonetic developments between RP and contemporary Standard Southern British (SSB) in vowels, consonants, stress, connected speech and intonation. Topics covered include the anti-clockwise vowel shift, the use of...
