Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EL NÚMERO SIETE ES LA EXPRESIÓN de algunas realidades naturales que nos rodean: las notas musicales, los colores del arcoíris, los días de la semana, los planetas que acompañan a la Tierra en el Sistema Solar, los continentes, y cada uno de estos últimos pueden seleccionarse siete montañas, siete islas y siete volcanes que destacan por su altura, situación geográfica y remotas regiones y lo aislado de su ubicación. En ello consiste el singular reto de la Trilogía Mundial. Completarlo requiere de escalar las siete cumbres más altas de los continentes, las cumbres de las siete islas más grandes y los siete volcanes más altos del mundo. CUMBRES Aconcagua, en Argentina Kilimanjaro, en Tanzania Denali, en Alaska Elbrus, en Rusia Carstensz, en Irian Jaya, y Kosciuszko, en Australia Vinson, en la Antártida Everest, en la frontera de Nepal y el Tíbet. CUMBRES DE ISLAS Kerinci, en Sumatra Kinabalu, en Malasia Wilhelm, en Nueva Guinea Fuji, en Japón Tête Blanche, en Baffin Gunnbjørn Fjeld, en Groenlandia Maromokotro y Ben Nevis, en Madagascar y Gran Bretaña VOLCANES Pico de Orizaba, en México Nevado Ojos del Salado, en Chile Elbrus, en Rusia Damavand, en Irán Giluwe, en Papúa Nueva Guinea Kilimanjaro, en Tanzania Sidley, en Antártida Lo más singular de este reto es el hecho de que, hasta el momento, solo el guatemalteco Jaime Viñals lo ha completado (añadiendo cumbres, como la del monte Kosciuszko en Australia y el monte Ben Nevis, en Gran Bretaña, por falta de consensos de su altitud). Puede que el número siete esté rodeado de un misticismo de perfección o divinidad, pero para el autor, han sido la determinación y perseverancia las virtudes que lo han ayudado a completar el reto, pues entre 1995 y el 2023, su conquista de cumbres constante ha sido un recorrido de veintiocho años de planeación y esfuerzos incansables. Esta obra es, pues, no solo la celebración de un éxito sin precedentes y la narración de experiencias con las que la mayoría de nosotros solo soñamos, sino también un testimonio de que cada cima requiere una cuota de sacrificios y el recordatorio de que no existen caminos en línea recta perpetua, y que altibajos, sudor y lágrimas pavimentan cada uno de ellos. Ojalá este compendio de diarios de ascensión inspire a más de uno a alcanzar las cimas de su propio recorrido, con los ojos fijos en la meta trazada.

This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and the Organization of American States publication This is the Spanish language version of Toward Free Trade in America. In the past 15 years, the nations of the Western Hemisphere have staged a remarkable revolution—in the way they trade with their neighbors. First, after decades of restrictive import policies, several countries began to liberalize their trade and investment regimes. Then, beginning a decade ago, numerous bilateral and sub-regional trade agreements were achieved, to serve as vital complements to domestic reforms and to foster trade flows among member countries. At the Second Summit of the Americas in 1998, negotiations among 34 democracies were launched to establish the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). This report takes stock of the remarkable progress to date in the development of free trade in the Western Hemisphere. It examines trade flows between countries in the same regional groupings and between members of different sub-regional arrangements. The report describes the main characteristics of the trade arrangements signed between countries of the Hemisphere and explores the development of trade rules in these arrangements. Finally, the report details recent advances in the construction of the FTAA.

Download or read book Cuando Edipo creci written by Daniel Becker and published by Libros del Zorzal. This book was released on 2011 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A los cincuenta años, la persona posee un mundo interior muy diferente del que poseía a los veinte. Se relaciona de otro modo consigo misma, su sexualidad es totalmente distinta y cambia su escala de valores en cuanto a carrera, familia y sociedad. El adulto es mucho más que un niño que creció. Es sorprendente que tan pocos estudios psicológicos se hayan dedicado a la edad madura. La terapia se interesa ante todo por la infancia y la proyecta sobre la madurez. A veces parece que la actitud de la psicología en este campo se limita a enumerar las funciones que van deteriorándose en el camino hacia la vejez. La mayoría de los individuos no son conscientes de las oportunidades de desarrollo continuo que tienen lugar en todas las edades, y del nuevo florecimiento que se produce en la segunda mitad de la vida. Cuando Edipo creció procura estimular la percepción de ese crecimiento, definir la singular cultura que deriva del mismo y obtener el máximo de satisfacción.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America is a region made up of multiple states with a diversity of races, ethnicities, and cultures. In 'Transnational Perspectives on Latin America', Luis Roniger argues that a regional perspective is significant for understanding this part of the Western hemisphere. He claims that geopolitical, sociological, and cultural trends molded a contiguity of influences, shaping a transnational arena of connected histories, cross-border interactions, and shared visions, complementing the process of separate nation-state formation.--
