Pagar menos impuestos no es un truco: es conocer las reglasEn España pagamos impuestos por casi todo: sobre todo por trabajar, pero también por ahorrar, por invertir, por comprar una casa, por heredar y, en ocasiones, incluso por equivocarnos. Sin embargo, la mayoria de las personas desconoce cuanto paga realmente y, sobre todo, que alternativas legales existen para reducir esa carga fiscal. Este libro nace para cubrir ese vacio: explicar el sistema con claridad y enseñarte a defender tu patrimonio dentro de la ley.Andres Millan, abogado especializado en fiscalidad y conocido divulgador, conocido en redes como @lawtips, desgrana en este libro como funciona de verdad el sistema tributario español. A partir de ejemplos reales y situaciones cotidianas, el autor explica por que no es lo mismo ganar dinero trabajando que invirtiendo, como se estructuran los impuestos mas importantes IRPF, sociedades, sucesiones, patrimonio y que decisiones marcan la diferencia entre pagar de mas o pagar lo que es justo: desde como optimizar un salario o una actividad como autonomo, hasta como comprar, alquilar o vender una vivienda con inteligencia fiscal; desde la planificacion de herencias y donaciones, hasta el uso eficiente de sociedades, holdings y productos de inversion. Todo explicado sin tecnicismos innecesarios y con un enfoque claro: proteger lo que tanto cuesta ganar.Lejos de atajos ilegales o promesas milagro, esta es una guia para entender las reglas del juego y tomar decisiones informadas, pensada para quienes quieren dejar de vivir a ciegas frente a Hacienda y empezar a gestionar su dinero con criterio, responsabilidad y tranquilidad.

Un viernes de diciembre, en pleno corazón de Madrid, la vida de Iván, un adolescente de quince años que espera el autobús junto a su padre, se detiene para siempre.

The nations of the Global North are responding to the climate change emergency with emissions trading schemes and alternative sources of energy. Meanwhile, nations of the Global South, still emerging from historical exploitation under colonialism, face decisions about natural resource use that are, for traditional owners and inhabitants of resource-rich lands, often a matter of life or death. Environmental lawyer and legal scholar Arpitha Kodiveri has worked alongside many of Indias forest-dwelling communities and describes how they bear the cost of both rapacious mining development and increasing pressure for forest land to be set aside for environmental conservation. Despite these challenges, Kodiveri shows how the traditional owners and inhabitants of forest areas are driving creative solutions in forest law. Hope can be found here, in each communitys unique vision of co-governance, expressed in the language of care and repair.

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Franchise comes the untold story of the pioneering Black women artists and activists who were seen, but barely heard, at the 1963 March on WashingtonThere is no shortage of footage immortalizing the men who spoke at the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, when 250,000 Americans gathered beneath the Lincoln Memorial to call for an end to segregation. There were reverends and rabbis, activists and Rat-Pack iconsand of course the days headliner, whose prophetic dream of a post-Jim Crow world has forever defined the Civil Rights Movement. But there is no class photo of the Black women who helped organize the march, performed on its main stage, or were honored during its Tribute to Negro Women Fighters for Freedom.In How Bright the Path Grows, Marcia Chatelain weaves a gleaming group portrait of these singular women. Among this cohort were several household names: vaudeville icon Josephine Baker, civil rights activist Rosa Parks, gospel legend Mahalia Jackson, and Daisy Bates, champion of the Little Rock Nine. But many were relative unknowns, including Eva Jessye, the choir director who designed the days musical program; and Anna Hedgeman, the coordinator who pushed in the eleventh hour for a tribute to Black womens work.How Bright the Path Grows is a scintillating group biography, rendering the lives of thirteen Black women visionariessome famous, others soon to bein novelistic detail and like never seen before.

A sweeping and revelatory history of the hidden tradition of Jewish thinkers who opposed Zionism from Pulitzer Prize winner Benjamin Moser. In Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History, Benjamin Moser uncovers a suppressed tradition that has shaped Jewish thought for generations. Through a cast of artists, rabbis, poets, lawyers, activists, journalists and politicians from Europe and Africa and Asia and Latin America Moser traces a lineage of Jewish dissenters who confronted Zionisms moral and political stakes often at devastating personal cost, including censorship, exile and death. Their lives form a sweeping, global narrative that dismantles a powerful myth: that anti-Zionism is synonymous with antisemitism. Spanning continents and centuries, these voices people from the right and the left, Reform and Orthodox, Ashkenazic and Sephardic, men and women, gay and straight differ sharply in belief and background, yet converge on a shared warning about the consequences of a nationalist project built on exclusion. What emerges is not only a rediscovered tradition of Jewish moral thought, but a startling reappraisal of Zionism itself. Mosers work restores the full scale and depth of Jewish ethical imagination, affirming that Judaism is older and larger than any single political project. Lucid, unsparing and deeply humane, Anti-Zionism cements Mosers place as one of our foremost Jewish writers and presents a framework through which this history and its meanings will be understood for years to come.

A Ms. Magazine"Most Anticipated Feminist Books of 2026" PickGives voice to the Black women whose lives were devastated by the carceral system and sheds powerful light on its slavery-based roots to transform how we think about mass incarcerationHistorian Talitha L. LeFlouria centers Black women at the core of a fresh argument: that the system of mass incarceration was established as protection for the institution of slavery and the profits of enslavers and that this legacy continues today.For centuries, Black women in America have experienced extreme rates of arrest, conviction, and incarceration in the nations jails and prisons, yet their experiences have often been overlooked in favor of Black mens.Arguing that the merger between profit and punishment continues to keep Black people bound, LeFlouria traces the connection between enslavement and incarceration, revealing how they have always been intertwinedfrom the domestic slave trade of 1810-1865, when an estimated one million people were incarcerated in privately owned slave jails, to the post-Civil War era when Black people were enslaved through new systems of state-sponsored mass incarceration, and through to today.Using archival sources and personal testimonies, LeFlouria tells a new origin story of mass incarceration with the stories of numerous Black women throughout history, including:· Delia Garlic, who was incarcerated in a slave jail and later sold to a sheriff at the height of the domestic slave trade· Eliza Purdy, who was jailed and sold to the highest bidder a year after the Civil War ended, and· Susan Burton, who was commodified and trafficked through a 20th-century cell block, much like an enslaved person on the auction block 200 years prior.

What if you committed a crime that wasnt your fault?Its a cold, grey morning. You open the front door, slightly hungover and fairly exhausted, and stop in your tracks. Lying bloodied and beaten on the driveway is the motionless body of your father. He is dead killed in a violent frenzy. You dont remember what happened, and in fact you never will, but, you will soon discover, you are the one who killed him What happens when an ordinary person, one of us, commits an unspeakable act without any memory of it? How do we reconcile their perceived innocence with the heinous acts they have committed? In Any One of Us, barrister Ramya Nagesh reveals that the line between good and evil can be far more blurred than we care to admit. Through the lens of gripping real-life cases, Nagesh challenges our perceptions of conventional morality and culpability, reveals the limitations of the justice system, and invites us to ask the question: could it happen to me? Drawing on trial documents, personal experience, and expert testimony, Nagesh navigates the complexities of sleepwalking, hormonal imbalances, and other unforeseen circumstances that have led to tragic outcomes. Cases include a woman who was found by a court to have been suffering from severe pre-menstrual syndrome when she accelerated her car at her boyfriend and crushed him to death. Or a man who could never have predicted that his night terrors would make him unconsciously strangle to death the love of his life. From the courtroom to the crime scene, Any One of Us invites readers on a thought-provoking journey that confronts uncomfortable truths about human nature.

In this ambitious and groundbreaking history, Lauren Collins weaves together stories of four Wilmington, North Carolina, families over 125 years to create a full accounting of the long-term effects of the 1898 white supremacist massacre and coup and its critical role in subverting American democracyAfter the Civil War, Reconstruction ushered in an era of political equality and economic opportunity for Black people, and it lasted longer in Wilmington than almost anywhere else. In 1898, Wilmington was a bastion of Black success: Black cultural life flourished, while a thriving Black middle class brimmed with lawyers, educators, and elected officials. The city became a symbol of Black hopeonly for all of it to come to a violent end on November 10, 1898.In this epic, multigenerational narrative, Lauren Collins traces the fates of four Wilmington families: the Howes, the Halseys, the Moores, and the Bellamy/MacRaes, all of whom were present on the day when a mob of white supremacists launched a murderous coup to take the city. After issuing a White Declaration of Independence, white men gunned down scores of Black men, chasing their families into hiding. Then they marched to city hall, where they overthrew the democratically elected, multiracial local government at gunpoint in what is thought to be the only successful coup detat on American soil. No one knows exactly how many Black citizens they murderedsurely dozens, likely hundredswhile driving thousands of survivors and their white allies out of town. Folklore among both Black and white Wilmingtonians holds that the Cape Fear River ran red. While the effects of this episode of racial terrorism would ricochet through the next century of our nations history, no one was ever prosecuted or punished, and many of the details have been largelyand deliberatelyforgotten.In collaboration with living descendants of Black and white families, Collins seeks to create a more complete understanding of 1898 than can be drawn solely from the archives. She follows these four families and their descendants through the eras of segregation and Jim Crow, the Great Migration, the Civil Rights movement, and school desegregation, all the way up to the Black Lives Matter and racial justice protests in 2020, emphasizing the lasting and consequential effects of 1898 on the city and people of Wilmington.Weaving together each generations reckoning with their past and how it has imprinted on their present, They Stole a City is an ambitious and revelatory examination of American racial terror as it has played out in one Southern city, written in the conviction that the story of the 1898 Wilmington massacre and coup is, in fact, a story about America in 2025.

Former Ohio Attorney General crusades against wrongful conviction and shows how citizens can prevent this terrifyingly common miscarriage of justice. Wrongful criminal conviction is much more frequent than most Americans believe. The thought of imprisoned innocent people haunted me. I became determined to try to do something about it. Jim Petro, Former Attorney General of Ohio The flaws in Americas execution of justice lead to an unacceptable number of wrongful criminal convictions. Jim Petro was confronted with this issue when the guilt of several convicts serving life sentences was called into question. In False Justice, Jim and Nancy Petro detail and challenge eight myths of justice: Everyone in prison claims innocence. The conviction of an innocent person is extremely rare. Only the guilty confess. Wrongful convictions are accidental and unintentional. Eyewitness testimony is the best evidence. Conviction errors get corrected on appeal. Questioning a conviction dishonors the victim. The pros will fix the justice system. Forensic science is trustworthy. Juries are prepared and qualified to decide cases fairly. Innocent people never plead guilty. Our system delivers fair and equal justice for all. False Justice corrects these common misunderstandings with an important truth: true justice requires constant vigilance and is the responsibility of every citizen.
