El silencio no es la simple ausencia de ruido. Hace posible la fortaleza interior donde los grandes escritores, pensadores, eruditos y creyentes se han recogido durante siglos.

Here, Alain de Botton follows the arc of a mental health journey, from crisis to recuperation; the moments we realize we cannot cope; the acts of selfcare or therapy in which we find respite; and the days we finally reclaim a sense of stability. Written with understanding and kindness, it is both a source of companionship in our loneliest moments - whether it's a relationship breakdown, a career setback or anxiety around the everyday - and a practical guide that will help us find reasons for hope.

We spend vast amounts of time acquiring confidence in narrow technical fields: quadratic equations or bioengineering; economics or pole vaulting. But we overlook the primordial need to acquire a more free-ranging variety of confidence - one that can serve us across a range of tasks: speaking to strangers at parties, asking someone to marry us, suggesting a fellow passenger turn down their music, changing the world. This is a guidebook to confidence, why we lack it and how we can acquire more of it in our lives.

La historia de Rabih y Kristen se parece a la de muchos: una mujer y un hombre se encuentran, se enamoran y al cabo de poco tiempo se casan. Aquí podría acabar la novela con un «...y vivieron felices comiendo perdices», pero en realidad este es el momento en que empieza el verdadero viaje, la fatiga del amor.

(...) La tristesse est comme un poison ; on peut l'aimer, mais non s'en trouver bien ; et c'est toujours le plus profond sentiment qui a raison à la fin.

In The Agony of Eros, a bestseller in Germany, Han considers the threat to love and desire in today's society. For Han, love requires the courage to accept self-negation for the sake of discovering the Other.

The westward expansion of the United States has a far bigger and more complex history than Hollywood westerns and high school textbooks would have us believe. Even before the establishment of the British colonies on the nation’s eastern shore, the American West was beginning to take shape—including the arrival of the first people of African descent to set foot in North America in the late 1400s. From the very beginning, the history of the American West has been intertwined with the Black experience.
