Marcada por su temprana orfandad materna, la escritora británica Charlotte Brontë, que a lo largo de su corta vida acumuló muchos lutos, revela en su obra el apasionado deseo de encontrar un lugar en el mundo. Jane Eyre, la obra que consagró su éxito fulminante, tiene los ingredientes de una novela gótica, pero rebasa con mucho las convenciones del género. Cándido Pérez Gállego explica en la Introducción cómo Jane, la protagonista, es portavoz de un nuevo modo de descubrir la realidad, y su reflexión nos lleva a un viaje hacia la autenticidad. Al valor histórico –Charlotte Brontë logra un cuadro enormemente plástico de la sociedad británica de su época– se unen aquí el valor moral y el literario. Porque, en efecto, superando las técnicas tradicionales de los diálogos, una especie de «comentario mental» abre en Jane Eyre el camino que conducirá a Virginia Woolf. « Amable lector: ¡ojalá no sientas nunca lo que yo sentí entonces! ¡Ojalá no llores nunca las ardientes y tumultuosas lágrimas que yo lloré en aquella ocasión! ¡Ojalá no eleves nunca al cielo una plegaria tan desesperada y angustiosa como la que entonces brotó de mis labios! ¡Ojalá no te veas nunca en el caso de ser instrumento del dolor de aquel a quien amas, como me sucedía a mí!»

The book delves into the inherent flaws of popular investment strategies such as technical analysis, modern portfolio theory, and algorithms, highlighting their risks and shortcomings. It critiques the tendency of investors to rely on these methods, which often lead to financial pitfalls, and addresses the growing trend of passive indexing as a response to the perceived chaos of the stock market. The author aims to equip readers with a deeper understanding of these issues to safeguard their wealth.

This is the question most asked by women in their middle years (ages 35 to 55) who are experiencing physical and emotional changes. This widely acclaimed book, initially self-published by gynaecologist Dr Margaret Smith and psychotherapist Patricia Michalka, Is It Me or My Hormones? achieved widespread endorsement from doctors, counsellors and readers for its relevant, compassionate approach to the lives of women. This revised and updated edition includes developments in the prescribing of Hormone Replacement Therapy. Experience has shown Margaret Smith and Patricia Michalka that not all women need or want hormone therapy at this time and, indeed, not everything that happens at this time of life is due to hormones. In this book, the authors draw on their own experiences and those of their clients to help explain how to sort out the confusion caused by the interaction of hormones and life events. Their writing reflects the rich tapestry of so many lives, full of humour, confusion, clarity, compassion and practical guidance - both medical and psychological.
