Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Gótico

After receiving a frantic letter from her newly-wed cousin begging for someone to save her from a mysterious doom, Noemi Taboada heads to High Place, a distant house in the Mexican countryside. She's not sure what she will find--her cousin's husband, a handsome Englishman, is a stranger, and Noemi knows little about the region. Noemi is also an unlikely rescuer: She's a glamorous debutante, and her chic gowns and perfect red lipstick are more suited for cocktail parties than amateur sleuthing. But she's also tough and smart, with an indomitable will, and she is not afraid: Not of her cousin's new husband, who is both menacing and alluring; not of his father, the ancient patriarch who seems to be fascinated by Noemi; and not even of the house itself, which begins to invade Noemi's dreams with visions of blood and doom. Her only ally in this inhospitable abode is the family's youngest son. Shy and gentle, he seems to want to help Noemi, but might also be hiding dark knowledge of his family's past. For there are many secrets behind the walls of High Place. The family's once colossal wealth and faded mining empire kept them from prying eyes, but as Noemi digs deeper she unearths stories of violence and madness.

Orientaciones para las buenas prácticas en la atención psicosocial de jóvenes y adolescentes

Libro Orientaciones para las buenas prácticas en la atención psicosocial de jóvenes y adolescentes

El libro que se presenta al lector es una guía de buenas prácticas para la atención de los problemas psicoemocionales de los adolescentes y jóvenes. La razón práctica de su elaboración es la infrautilización de los servicios profesionales por parte de este grupo de edad ante situaciones de depresión y ansiedad, principalmente; aunque también ante los malestares propios del ciclo vital. La razón más teórica, sin embargo, trasciende el objetivo específico para delinear un modo de investigación-participación propio de la salud mental colectiva.

Libro Como Criar Ninos Y Que No Salgan Imbeciles

How to Raise Kids Who Aren't Assholes is a clear, actionable, sometimes humorous (but always science-based) guide for parents on how to shape their kids into honest, kind, generous, confident, independent, and resilient people...who just might save the world one day. As an award-winning science journalist, Melinda Wenner Moyer was regularly asked to investigate and address all kinds of parenting questions: how to potty train, when and whether to get vaccines, and how to help kids sleep through the night.
