Documento histórico–esta seria a melhor maneira de classificar a narrativa que Fernando Gabeira empreende para nos contar, em primeira pessoa, como jovens guerrilheiros, em 1969, conseguiram realizar a mais espetacular proeza de um grupo de esquerda: o sequestro do embaixador americano. O então jornalista recém-saído do Jornal do Brasil e seus companheiros de organização "trocaram" a vida do embaixador pela libertação de 15 presos políticos.

Há poucas fronteiras ainda não exploradas em nosso planeta. Talvez a mais selvagem, e quase desconhecida, sejam os oceanos: grandes demais para serem policiados e sem jurisdição internacional evidente, essas imensas regiões de águas traiçoeiras abrigam índices galopantes de criminalidade e exploração.

Em Reviravolta, por meio de um impressionante estudo comparativo, Jared Diamond mostra como sete países bem-sucedidos (Finlândia, Japão, Chile, Indonésia, Alemanha, Austrália e Estados Unidos) se recuperaram de crises ao adotar mudanças seletivas—um mecanismo de enfrentamento mais comumente associado a indivíduos que se recuperam de crises pessoais. Essas nações experimentaram, em vários níveis, mecanismos como o reconhecimento da responsabilidade e a autoavaliação honesta, e aprenderam a se recuperar a partir de modelos de outras nações.

Maps have a mysterious hold over us. Whether ancient, crumbling parchments or generated by Google, maps tell us things we want to know, not only about our current location or where we are going but about the world in general. And yet, when it comes to geo-politics, much of what we are told is generated by analysts and other experts who have neglected to refer to a map of the place in question.

Power bends to those who understand people, timing, and bold action. Julius Caesar mastered all three. Julius Caesar did not simply rise to power. He engineered it. In an age of political chaos, brutal warfare, and fragile alliances, Caesar transformed himself from an indebted aristocrat into the most powerful man in the Roman world. His story is not just about conquest, but about strategy, psychology, and the rare ability to bend events toward your will.

For decades it sat in the background — a monetary relic, a jewelry metal, a footnote in commodity reports. That era is gone. Today, silver is the hidden load-bearing wall of the green transition and the data economy. It's in every solar panel, every electric vehicle, every 5G tower, every AI data center humming away in a server farm somewhere. Demand is structural and accelerating. Supply is not.

What if the system you trusted with the most important moment of your life wasn't designed with you in mind?

Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. His refusal to accept defeat sparked a frenzy of unsubstantiated theories among his supporters, because “lots of people voted against the most unpopular President in history” didn’t seem plausible to them. Enter 2000 Mules, a provocative documentary by conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza, claiming to unveil a sinister plot by Democrats to steal the election in key battleground states through ballot harvesting and paid "mules." The film is based largely on assumptions, anomaly hunting, assertions without evidence, and previously debunked claims.

What if the conflicts tearing apart your relationships, your workplace, your community—are not your fault? For decades, we have treated aggression as a personal failing. We blame “difficult people,” prescribe anger management, and search for the villain in every dispute. But groundbreaking research reveals a startling truth: conflict escalation is often a property of networks, not individuals.

Is the New World Order merely a fringe conspiracy theory—or is it a chilling reality unfolding right before our eyes? This book dares you to uncover the truth.

All the while, a hidden agenda advances in the shadows: the rise of a totalitarian one-world regime.
