Le 29 décembre 1976, à Buenos Aires, Silvia Labayru est séquestrée par ordre de la dictature militaire à l’ESMA, l’un des pires centres clandestins de détention du pays. Elle a 20 ans, elle est membre du groupe armé montoneros et elle attend un enfant. C’est sur une table de torture qu’elle accouchera, avant de devenir le « butin de guerre » de l’un des commandants. Deux ans plus tard, elle s’envole pour Madrid, convaincue que l’enfer est derrière elle. Mais un autre calvaire l’attend : ses compatriotes exilés la bannissent comme traître à la cause.

In 2018, 34 people were shot at a high school in Parkland, Florida. Jaime Guttenberg, a 14-year-old, was the second to last victim. That she and so many of her fellow students were struck down in cold blood galvanized many to action, including Jaime's father, Fred, who has become an activist dedicated to passing common-sense gun-safety legislation. This book is not about gun safety or Parkland. Instead, it tells the story of Fred Guttenberg's journey since Jaime's death and how he has been able to get through the worst of times thanks to the kindness and compassion of others.

Desde los años de su compromiso político juvenil en defensa de la República y a lo largo de su prolongado exilio, la política jamás dejó de nutrir la reflexión filosófica de María Zambrano (1904-1991), enlazándose con algunos de los motivos más persistentes y profundos de su pensamiento: la libertad y su indisoluble vínculo con la necesidad; la democracia concebida como un ejercicio de la formación plena de la persona; la diferencia sexual y su dimensión simbólica; la condición natal y la vulnerabilidad inherente a la existencia humana.

À la fin des années 50, Rachel Carson se concentra sur la protection de l'environnement et sur les problèmes causés par les biocides de synthèse. Ceci la conduisit à publier Silent Spring (Printemps silencieux) en 1962 qui déclencha un renversement dans la politique nationale envers les biocides — conduisant à une interdiction nationale du DDT et d'autres pesticides. Le mouvement populaire que le livre inspira conduisit à la création de " l'Environmental Protection Agency " . Carson reçut à titre posthume la médaille présidentielle de la Liberté.

Mitra växer upp i Iran under ayatolla Khomeinis regim, men en demonstration i staden Qum blir startskottet för en revolution som kommer att förändra allt. Mitra går med i motståndsrörelsen MKO, Iranska folkets mujahedin, och får som sjuttonåring en ledarposition inom organisationen. I samband med en demonstration tillfångatas hon och hamnar för första gången i Hizbollahs fängelse. Hon utsätts för tortyr och lever med vetskapen om att varje dag kan bli hennes sista. När hon släpps från fängelset tvingas hon fly, risken för att tillfångatas på nytt är stor; att protestera mot Khomeini är att gå emot Gud.

When Lou Henry married Herbert Hoover in February 1899, she looked forward to a partnership of equality and a life of adventure. She could fire a rifle and sit a horse as well as any man. The Quaker community of Whittier, California, where she lived as a teen, reinforced the egalitarian spirit of her upbringing. But history had other ideas for Lou Henry Hoover. Conveying Lou’s humor, personality, and intelligence, A Woman of Adventure takes a fresh look at the first lady who preceded Eleanor Roosevelt and her also-extraordinary accomplishments.

Women have been at the forefront of significant positive change for generations, and yet they still struggle to have their voices heard. There is no more obvious example of this than when learning about modern history, where little acknowledgment is given to women's incredible feats and sacrifices during major world events. However, there are hundreds of true stories of brave women activists, each one fighting for important causes such as ending slavery and other forms of oppression.
