Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Catastrofes Aereas

What was once a romantic race for the skies at the turn of the century has become, now at the threshold of the new Millennium, a fierce commercial competition where no contestant can afford to lose ground. Catastrofes aereas is a journey through the most resonant and disastrous accidents in the history of commercial aviation, where the account of the events, experts' investigations, technical explanations, and the testimonies of those who lived or witnessed it are but the beginning of the story. There is also the political, economic and social context in which they occurred, and the outside interests that influenced each. Included is a chronological summary of the major worldwide disasters, and a striking account of the Boeing disaster that took place on August 31, 1999 at the Buenos Aires Airport.

A las siete de la mañana del 21 de febrero...

Europa en crisis. 1598-1648

Libro Europa en crisis. 1598-1648

En esta nueva edición revisada y actualizada de un libro clásico, Geoffrey Parker recurre a fuentes de toda Europa para proporcionar una exposición vibrante y fidedigna de la agitada primera mitad del siglo xvii. A lo largo de esos convulsos cincuenta años el continente disfrutó de apenas un año de paz; por el contrario, la revolución, la guerra civil y complejos conflictos internacionales llevaron a muchos estados al borde del colapso en la década de 1640. El profesor Parker examina tres conflictos fundamentales: la desaforada pugna de la España de los Habsburgo con Francia y los...
