* Este libro le abrirá los ojos y la mente (y quizá también el corazón) a la belleza, la ciencia y la importancia de los árboles no solo para la humanidad, sino para toda la vida en la Tierra. * Los arboles nos alimentan, nos protegen, nos inspiran y nos curan. En un mundo que se enfrenta a la destruccion de la selva amazonica y una emergencia climatica acuciante, resulta dificil subestimar la importancia de estos seres primigenios para nuestro futuro. * Profusamente ilustrado, y organizado segun el ciclo vital de los arboles (desde las semillas, las hojas y el porte hasta la madera, las flores y los frutos), este libro celebra la gran diversidad y la belleza de las sesenta mil especies de arboles que habitan nuestro planeta. Los exquisitos detalles se plasman en fotografias e infografias sorprendentes: los intrincados patrones en las cortezas y las hojas, los ecosistemas entrelazados, la explosion de color de las flores, ruedas de madera arcaicas y casas de madera? Esenciales para la ciencia, el arte y cultura; fundamentales y fragiles; dependientes e imprescindibles, los arboles y su vitalidad se retratan en este libro como nunca habiamos visto. Los arboles son las superesculturas vivientes por excelencia. Representan la forma de vida de mayor tamaño que la mayoria de nosotros tendremos ocasion de conocer, y esa caracteristica les otorga la capacidad casi espiritual de ayudar a los seres humanos a mantener la perspectiva respecto a nuestros egos. Este hermoso libro de Paul Smith constituye un oportuno homenaje al salvaje, sabio y sorprendente don de los arboles.

Rangers have more than 100 trophies to the clubs credit in an illustrious history - but only one of those prizes has been claimed on foreign shores. The triumph over Moscow Dynamo in the 1972 European Cup Winners Cup final in the Nou Camp stadium is the achievement Ibrox teams have been attempting to emulate for decades since that famous win. To Barcelona and Beyond charts the twists and turns of that celebrated European campaign and tells the real story, in the players own words, of the men who made it happen.Through a unique collection of interviews with all eleven of the Barca Bears and comprehensive biographical profiles, Paul Smith charts the journey of a group of home-grown players who went on to propel Rangers to continental glory - and just where footballs rollercoaster has taken them in the years that have followed. Each player had a major part to play in that most memorable of nights and each tells their story. With additional material studying the experiences of the army of travelling supporters and examining the business aspect of the 1972 triumph, To Barcelona and Beyond pays a lasting tribute to one of the greatest occasions in Scottish football.
