Un recorrido inédito por la historia del mundo. guiado por un cicerone de excepción. Este libro ofrece un enfoque único de la historia de la humanidad a través del estudio de objetos que las distintas civilizaciones, a menudo sin pretenderlo, han ido dejando a su paso. Estas obras se convierten en una suerte de prismas a través de los cuales podemos explorar mundos antiguos y conocer algo más sobre las vidas de los hombres y mujeres que los habitaron. El campo de estudio que abarca es enorme: comienza con uno de los objetos más antiguos fabricados por la mano del hombre que se conservan -un canto tallado procedente de la garganta de Olduvai, en África- y termina con un objeto del siglo XXI que representa el mundo en que vivimos._x000D_ El propósito de Neil MacGregor no es ofrecer una mera descripción de estos extraordinarios objetos, sino mostrarnos su significado. Así, cuenta cómo un pilar de piedra nos habla sobre un gran líder indio que predicaba tolerancia a su pueblo, cómo los reales de a ocho españoles, acuñados en Potosí, señalan el nacimiento de una moneda global, o cómo un juego de té de la época victoriana revela la influencia del imperio.Cada capítulo sumerge al lector en una civilización pasada, de la mano de un guía de excepción. Vista de este modo, la historia es un caleidoscopio cambiante, interrelacionado, sorprendente, que configura nuestro mundo contemporáneo de un modo que no habríamos imaginado._x000D_ _x000D_.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Terror, a notorious gang member from California, relocates to the East Coast, hoping to leave his violent past behind and build a new life in New York City. There, he falls in love with Jennifer, a woman with a young son named Nelson, who goes by the street name "Royal." Over time, Terror becomes a father figure to Royal, teaching him everything he knows about surviving in the harsh world he's left behind. But when Terror is sentenced to a life sentence in federal prison, he is forced to leave the streets for good. Upon arriving at USP Big Sandy, he reconnects with an old friend, Puppet. Together, they devise a plan to dominate the criminal underworld, but only a few people earn Terror's trust-one of them being Royal, who idolizes his stepfather's reputation and craves the power and influence that comes with it. As Royal ascends to the throne, he faces intense trials, battling rivals, and confronting the deadly pressures of street life. While some question whether Royal has truly earned his position, those who doubt him quickly learn that disloyalty comes with a heavy price. In this gritty urban tale, loyalty is tested, and the line between family and business is blurred. Pressure can break people-or turn them into diamonds. As Terror's influence wanes and Royal's rise to power intensifies, the question remains: Will he stay true to his mentor, or will ambition and betrayal tear everything apart?
