About this listen
Los humanos contemporáneos han recorrido un largo camino en sus 70,000 años de paso por la tierra. Arte, ciencia, cultura, comercio: en la cadena evolutiva somos verdaderos ganadores. Pero lo cierto es que no siempre ha sido un viaje fácil y, a veces, muy puntualmente, hemos llegado a pifiarla de verdad.
Uniendo historia, ciencia, política y cultura pop, Humanos nos ofrece una exploración panorámica de la humanidad en todo su esplendor (es decir en todas sus pifias) y nos revela cómo incluso los errores más mundanos cambiaron el curso de la civilización como la conocemos. Desde Lucy, nuestro primer antepasado, que se cayó de un árbol, se rompió un brazo y murió, pasando por el emperador chino Zhengde, que almacenó pólvora en su palacio antes de un festival de linternas o por el ejército austriaco, que se atacó a sí mismo en una noche de borrachera. El audiolibro también hace un repaso de los peores líderes políticos de la historia, así como un resumen de la incapacidad de la raza humana para prever el futuro.
Humanos es un compendio único, divertido, irónico y lleno de ideas brillantes que ofrece una nueva perspectiva de la historia de la humanidad llena de interés y, claro está, de humor.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.

The Roman gladiator has long been a figure of fascination. Portrayed frequently in fine art and popular culture alike, the gladiator is both a real part of history and a legend of a romanticized past. We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like? And why do they continue to have such a strong hold on our imagination, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire?

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.
