La era del capitalismo de la vigilancia
El primer examen detallado de una forma de poder sin precedentes llamada «capitalismo de la vigilancia», el afán de unas poderosas corporaciones empresariales por predecir y controlar nuestro comportamiento.“El Capital de la era digital” The Times«Como otra obra maestra reciente del análisis económico, El capital en el siglo XXI, de Thomas Piketty, este libro cuestiona ideas asumidas, plantea interrogantes incómodos sobre el presente y el futuro, y acota el terreno para un debate muy necesario y pendiente desde hace ya un tiempo.»Nicholas Carr, autor de Superficiales, Los Angeles Review of BooksEn esta obra magistral por la originalidad de las ideas y las investigaciones en ella expuestas, Shoshana Zuboff nos revela el alarmante fenómeno que ella misma ha denominado «capitalismo de la vigilancia». Está en juego algo de la máxima importancia: toda una arquitectura global de modificación de la conducta amenaza con transfigurar la naturaleza humana misma en el siglo XXI de igual modo a como el capitalismo industrial desfiguró el mundo natural en el siglo XX.Gracias al análisis de Zuboff, cobran gráficamente vida para nosotros las consecuencias del avance del capitalismo de la vigilancia desde su foco de origen en Silicon Valley hacia todos los sectores de la economía. Hoy se acumula un enorme volumen de riqueza y poder en unos llamados «mercados de futuros conductuales» en los que se compran y se venden predicciones sobre nuestro comportamiento, y hasta la producción de bienes y servicios se supedita a un nuevo «medio de modificación de la conducta».La amenaza que se cierne sobre nosotros no es ya la de un Estado «Gran Hermano» totalitario, sino la de una arquitectura digital omnipresente: un «Gran Otro» que opera en función de los intereses del capital de la vigilancia. El exhaustivo y turbador análisis de Zuboff pone al descubierto las amenazas a las que se enfrenta la sociedad del siglo XXI: una «colmena» controlada y totalmente interconectada que nos seduce con la promesa de lograr certezas absolutas a cambio del máximo lucro posible para sus promotores, y todo a costa de la democracia, la libertad y nuestro futuro como seres humanos.Sin apenas resistencia en la legislación o en la sociedad, el capitalismo de la vigilancia va camino de dominar el orden social y determinar el futuro digital... si no se lo impedimos antes.

Otra vez tu
Junto a sus dos mejores amigas, Emma deja atrás la ciudad de Nueva York y viaja a California con el firme propósito de pasar las vacaciones con un cóctel en la mano, bajo el sol, en las cálidas playas de la costa. Un plan perfecto. O al menos lo fue hasta que se encontró con Alex, el chico que no solo le rompió el corazón sino que, además, la dejó plantada una semana antes de subir al altar para darse el "sí, quiero". Por desgracia, Alex sigue siendo irresistible. Y, aunque Emma siente debilidad por su mirada azul y su sonrisa canalla, no está dispuesta a volver a caer en sus redes. Todo quedó atrás.

El hijo del capitan trueno
Memorias de una vida excepcional.

La fama de Miguel Bosé es tal que la mayoría de nosotros le consideramos un viejo conocido. Alguien de quien creemos saberlo todo y que, pensamos, es muy difícil que nos sorprenda. Sin embargo, si hay algo para lo que el autor tiene un talento extraordinario, y lo ha demostrado desde el principio de su carrera, es para pulverizar los prejuicios.

Todos los lectores que al ver este libro se hayan preguntado, “¿qué me puede contar que yo no sepa?” se quedarán prendados de las primeras páginas (¡y qué páginas!) de una historia, la suya, que comienza con el aliento de los cuentos atemporales: unos niños perdidos a merced de un padre todopoderoso, acostumbrado a que su voluntad fuera ley, y una madre arrolladora de belleza legendaria.

Generoso y audaz como nunca le hemos visto, el autor nos ofrece la cara menos conocida de personajes memorables, desde un Picasso vulnerable y crepuscular, al hermoso y maldito Helmut Berger. Y, destinada a permanecer con nosotros mucho tiempo después de cerrar el libro, la Tata, auténtico espíritu benéfico, que nos recuerda a las mujeres corajudas dispuestas a todo para proteger a las criaturas indefensas.

Una historia que transcurre en el país de nuestro pasado, que bebe en los recuerdos de nuestra infancia y juventud y que demuestra, una vez más, que en la contradicción, en el dolor y en la alegría de vivir, Miguel Bosé nos entiende, nos acompaña y nos representa.

Tu y yo, invencibles
Lucas es familiar, impulsivo y transparente.

Juliette es fuerte, introspectiva y liberal.

Él vive en Vallecas, trabaja en un taller de coches junto a su mejor amigo y por las tardes tocan en un grupo de música que marcará el curso de sus vidas para siempre.

Ella ha crecido con su abuela en un barrio acomodado, pero sueña con ser independiente, volar alto y dejar huella en el corazón de alguien.

Una noche de 1978, en pleno estallido de la movida madrileña, sus caminos se cruzan. Entonces surge la atracción, el deseo, el amor. Un amor radiactivo que lo arrolla todo a su paso mientras los dos se vuelven inseparables en un ambiente desenfrenado lleno de cambios, atrapados entre el éxito y el fracaso, la luz y la oscuridad, el perdón y el orgullo.

Pero Lucas es imperfecto.

Y Juliette guarda secretos.

¿Es eterna la pasión? ¿Se pueden olvidar la mentira y la traición sin que queden esquirlas?

¿Qué ocurre cuando dos meteoritos que prometieron ser invencibles colisionan?

Su amor es imperfecto, pero es su amor imperfecto

Will
One of the most dynamic and globally recognized entertainment forces of our time opens up fully about his life, in a brave and inspiring book that traces his learning curve to a place where outer success, inner happiness, and human connection are aligned. Along the way, Will tells the story in full of one of the most amazing rides through the worlds of music and film that anyone has ever had.

Will Smith’s transformation from a West Philadelphia kid to one of the biggest rap stars of his era, and then one of the biggest movie stars in Hollywood history, is an epic tale — but it’s only half the story.

Will Smith thought, with good reason, that he had won at life: Not only was his own success unparalleled, his whole family was at the pinnacle of the entertainment world. Only they didn't see it that way: They felt more like star performers in his circus, a seven-days-a-week job they hadn't signed up for. It turned out Will Smith's education wasn't nearly over.

This memoir is the product of a profound journey of self-knowledge, a reckoning with all that your will can get you and all that it can leave behind. Written with the help of Mark Manson, author of the multi-million-copy best seller The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, Will is the story of how one person mastered his own emotions, written in a way that can help everyone else do the same. Few of us will know the pressure of performing on the world's biggest stages for the highest of stakes, but we can all understand that the fuel that works for one stage of our journey might have to be changed if we want to make it all the way home. The combination of genuine wisdom of universal value and a life story that is preposterously entertaining, even astonishing, puts Will the book, like its author, in a category by itself.

If Gar doesn't find a way to impress the social elite at Bull Creek High School, he will never know what it's like to matter.

The Raven: Tales and Poems

Filmmaker and longtime horror literature fan Guillermo del Toro serves as the curator for the Penguin Horror series, a new collection of classic tales and poems by masters of the genre. Included here are some of del Toro’s favorites, from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and Ray Russell’s short story “Sardonicus,” considered by Stephen King to be “perhaps the finest example of the modern Gothic ever written,” to Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House and stories by Ray Bradbury, Joyce Carol Oates, Ted Klein, and Robert E. Howard. Featuring original cover art by Penguin Art Director Paul Buckley, these stunningly creepy deluxe hardcovers will be perfect additions to the shelves of horror, sci-fi, fantasy, and paranormal aficionados everywhere.

The Raven

The Raven: Tales and Poems is a landmark new anthology of Poe’s work, which defied convention, shocked readers, and confounded critics. This selection of Poe’s writings demonstrates the astonishing power and imagination with which he probed the darkest corners of the human mind. “The Fall of the House of Usher” describes the final hours of a family tormented by tragedy and the legacy of the past. In “The Tell Tale Heart,” a murderer's insane delusions threaten to betray him, while stories such as “The Pit and the Pendulum” and “The Cask of Amontillado” explore extreme states of decadence, fear and hate. The title narrative poem, maybe Poe’s most famous work, follows a man’s terrifying descent into madness after the loss of a lover.
