Algunos de los interrogantes más frecuentes en quienes deciden dar este paso suelen ser: ¿Tendré buenas ideas? ¿Podré leer en público? ¿Superaré mi bloqueo creativo? ¿Cuál será mi estilo para escribir?

Encontrar un estilo y potenciarlo es uno de los desafíos más gratificantes en el camino. Uno puede apreciar cómo se logra con las palabras crear distintos mundos e historias que salen desde el alma y desde el corazón, poniendo en juego toda creatividad.

Celebrate David Ortiz''s Hall of Fame enshrinement with this vibrant retrospective. With more than 500 career home runs, an infectious personality, and three World Series championships, David Ortiz has established his position as one of the greatest Major League Baseball players of this generation. But Ortiz'' story did not start with postseason heroics and towering blasts into the Fenway Park bleachers. Ortiz struggled to find his power stroke in parts of six seasons with the Minnesota Twins, who released him after the 2002 season. Then, Boston Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein signed Ortiz in 2003 and the 27 year old soon became known as Big Papi, setting career highs in home runs, winning the franchise''s first World Series championship in 86 years, and continuing his onslaught against American League pitching well into his late-30s. Following a 2015 season in which he hit 37 home runs at age 39, Ortiz announced that the 2016 season would be his last. Five years later, he became the only player elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame''s 2022 class. Ortiz'' unforgettable career is chronicled in this updated and expanded book from The Boston Globe. Big Papi: The Legend & Legacy of David Ortiz features 144 pages of award-winning reporting, vivid storytelling, dramatic photographs, and exclusive coverage of Ortiz as he prepares for his Hall of Fame induction ceremony. This one of a kind career retrospective is the perfect souvenir for any Red Sox fan.

Food insecurity in school settings is a serious concern in Brazil and many developed and developing countries. For this reason, public policies have been created to underpin programs offering free meals to school-age children, thus allowing basic learning conditions while tackling hunger among social groups under poverty. The National School Feeding Program (PNAE) in Brazil is recognized by the United Nation as an example of a program encompassing broad geographical coverage and partnerships with local family farmers. Here, this article reviews the historical pathway since the early XX century that paved the creation and implementation of public policies for food security in Brazilian schools. The benefits of these policies to family farming were discussed. This review is supported by official documents, such as Federal Laws, Decree, and National Programs. The outcome and experiences from the PNAE in various Brazilian states demonstrate that logistics and transportation of food from producers to schools are the main constraints for the greater efficiency of the program. Despite such constraints, the PNAE offers a unique opportunity to enhance human wellbeing by fostering family farmers to adopt agroecological systems and provide healthy and local food to school-age children.

Estas memorias de una de las figuras más enigmáticas y emblemáticas del béisbol inspirarán a generaciones de fanáticos. www.pedromartinez.com “Mi compadre tiene la fuerza y el carisma para inspirar. Así como lo hizo conmigo en el inicio de mi carrera, lo hará con todo el que lea este libro”.— VLADIMIR GUERRERO, Expelotero dominicano de Grandes Ligas, Jugador Más Valioso de la Liga Americana en 2004, miembro del Salón de la Fama Nacional del Béisbol de Estados Unidos y del Salón de la Fama del Béisbol Canadiense “Hay muy poco que este campeón de la Serie Mundial no cuenta en este libro; se expande sobre cualquier tema, y ofrece una mirada reveladora de una carrera llamativa... Los detalles íntimos que comparte Martínez desde dentro y fuera de la casa club hacen de este un libro único”. - WASHINGTON POST ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the eight-time All-Star and three-time Cy Young Award–winning pitcher, a bold, no-holds-barred memoir of his career, from his hardscrabble upbringing in the Dominican Republic to becoming one of the greatest pitchers of all time. Pedro Martinez entered the big leagues a scrawny power pitcher with a lightning arm who they said wasn’t “durable” enough, who they said was a punk. Yet Martinez willed himself to become one of the most intimidating pitchers to have ever played the game, an eight-time All-Star, three-time Cy Young Award winner, World Series champion, and Hall of Famer. In Pedro, the always colorful pitcher opens up to tell his remarkable story. From his days in the minor leagues clawing for respect; to his early days in lonely Montreal; to his legendary run with the Red Sox when, start after start, he dazzled with his pitching genius; to his twilight years on the mound as he put the finishing touches on a body of work that made him an icon, this memoir by one of baseball’s most enigmatic figures will entertain and inspire generations of fans to come. “Pedro the book is as smart, as funny, and as diva-esque as Pedro the pitcher . . . Buy the book. Read the book. Celebrate a golden era in Boston baseball.” —Boston Globe “There is little the eight-time All-Star holds back about any subject as he offers a revealing look at a colorful career . . . The intimate details Martinez offers up from both inside and outside the clubhouse make the book a winner.” —Washington Post “This is the beauty of this book, the machinations of a modern pitcher''s mind . . . Knowing and gritty, this memoir should’ve been printed on rawhide.” —Los Angeles Times

Integrated water resources management advocates a coordinated approach for managing water resources in a way that balances social and economic needs with concern for the environment. While potentially useful, integrated water management is also controversial. Supporters believe that the multi-dimensional nature of water can only be understood and managed from a holistic perspective, while critics often argue that integrated water management lacks suffi ciently well-defi ned rules for its practical implementation. This book, written by academics, users and practitioners, provides a down-to-earth approach to the ideal of integrated water resources management, drawing from conceptual frameworks and real-life practice to identify the key aspects that are yet to be resolved. As such, it examines the role of water accounting, food trade, environmental externalities and intangible values as key aspects whose consideration may help the water management community move forward. Overall, integrated water resources management is perceived to be a useful utopia, whose value lies more in the steps that need to be taken to make it a reality than in achieving its ever-elusive end goal.

Avant ses huit matchs des Étoiles, ses trois trophées Cy Young, sa victoire en Série mondiale et son élection au Temple de la renommée du baseball, avant que des stades entiers ne scandent son nom à l’unisson, Pedro Martinez a d’abord été un enfant de la République dominicaine, un petit garçon vivant dans une extrême pauvreté et rêvant de jouer un jour dans les majeures. Aujourd’hui, cet athlète charismatique et flamboyant raconte pour la première fois son parcours aussi incroyable qu’improbable. À son arrivée avec les Dodgers de Los Angeles, Pedro était un lanceur maigrichon doté d’un bras propulsant des rapides à une vitesse fulgurante. Certains connaisseurs disaient de lui qu’il ne serait pas assez résistant; d’autres, qu’il n’était qu’un voyou. Mais tous se trompaient, car ils ignoraient le feu sacré qui brûlait dans les veines de «Coeur de lion». Pedro n’avait qu’un désir, qu’une obsession: devenir le meilleur en développant le fabuleux contrôle, la vitesse et la variété de ses tirs, des atouts qui sont devenus ses marques de commerce. Dans ce fascinant témoignage, nous revivons les débuts ingrats de Pedro dans les mineures; ses quatre saisons avec les Expos, l’équipe qui lui a donné sa première véritable chance comme lanceur partant; son extraordinaire passage avec les Red Sox de Boston, et ses derniers exploits avant la retraite. Un récit sans concession, à l’image de l’homme, frondeur, volontaire, aux ambitions plus grandes que nature. Une figure controversée, mais terriblement attachante et immensément inspirante.
