A cinquant''anni dalla morte del "Che", Juan Martín Guevara ha trovato il coraggio di togliere dal piedistallo il fratello maggiore per restituirci il volto umano del mito dilagato nel mondo dopo il suo tragico assassinio in Bolivia il 9 ottobre 1967. Per riconciliarsi con un fratello adorato ma ingombrante, Juan Martín riannoda il filo dei ricordi e ci presenta il "Che" più intimo, assolutamente inedito, colui che Ernesto Guevara de la Serna è stato prima di diventare una leggenda: il bambino-adolescente che divora libri e gioca a rugby, il ragazzo tenero e cocciuto, lo studente di medicina che si laurea a tempo di record, il giovane timido e audace con la vocazione al comando, il viaggiatore curioso e instancabile ma sofferente d''asma, il figlio prediletto che scrive malinconiche lettere a casa mentre scopre povertà e ingiustizie dell''America latina. Tra divertenti aneddoti di vita quotidiana e inediti scorci di un ambiente familiare colto e anticonvenzionale nell''Argentina tra gli anni Trenta e Sessanta, Juan Martín Guevara compie un''intensa, e a tratti dolorosa, incursione nella propria storia privata, lontana e recente. Dove eccentrici personaggi si mescolano con gli eventi del Novecento e l''assenza del fratello maggiore si riverbera sui precari equilibri di una famiglia che potrà finalmente riabbracciare il combattente sulla sierra di Cuba all''indomani della vittoria della rivoluzione cubana. Un libro sulla forza irresistibile della nostalgia e sui valori umani, prima ancora che politici, del "Che".

W ciągu dwóch tysięcy lat ludzie osiągnęli harmonię ze sobą, z technologią i naturą, żyją długo i szczęśliwie, w oparciu o dwie główne zasady: wolność i postęp. Do tego czasu nastąpił skok inteligencji: mózgi są inaczej okablowane, w taki sposób, że ludzie kontrolują swoje instynkty i są bardziej spostrzegawczy. Jednak niektórzy rodzą się ze stanem zwanym regresją, co oznacza, że ich mózgi są okablowane w taki sam sposób, jak nasze obecnie. Takie osoby są bardziej romantyczne, chaotyczne i mniej świadome siebie. Aby pomóc nam zrozumieć naszą rolę w naturze i życiu, narrator opowiada historię związku regresyjnego mężczyzny ze zwykłą kobietą.

If you are an urbanite who has spent his life locked in four walls, it is logical that now you want to go out into the country. If you work all your life sitting, it is very logical that you want to walk. If you stay in insane and sad offices, you want to breathe clean air. If your days are filled meeting with colleagues and clients, now you want to enjoy solitude. If you must achieve absurd objectives, you want to do something where the end is not a goal. Now you can say goodbye to all that, and alone or accompanied, go to the Camino de Santiago. Buen Camino ! Index 1.

Basic vocabulary 12. My own notes Preface The Way of Saint James, also called the ''Camino de Santiago'' or the ''Camino'', is a crazy but rewarding adventure. For readers who are considering it, this book will be a help to make an informed decision and then plan it well. To do the Camino is to walk, nothing more. Walking is not running or climbing, but neither is it strolling at the mall. This guide is based on my experience of having completed the Camino from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela walking about 500 miles in 35 days, and having finished better than I was at the beginning. Buen Camino ! About the author Juan Martín-García is Spanish, 60 years old, author a recognized book over the History of Spain. He has done the Camino only once, he is not a walking expert, nor an athlete. His motivation for doing the Camino was to understand why hundreds of thousands of people not only start, but complete every year a 500-mile journey. An essential book for pilgrims

Of the 2.3 million individuals housed in prison in the United States, it is estimated that 80% of those incarcerated have no high school diploma. Of those, many were pushed out of schools and into the prison industrial complex. Inside prison, many received an informal education from cellblock intellectuals that transformed their lives. This research explores the lives of nine formerly incarcerated individuals and their life before prison, their time inside prison, and their experience with education after prison. All contributors participated in the Transitions program, which provides a cohort model of education at the community college level. This research looks at the role education plays in empowering students to stay free from prison, thereby significantly reducing recidivism rates.
