Vuelve Joël Dicker, fenómeno global con veintidós millones de lectores, con «un libro para lectores de 7 a 120 años» para emocionarse y compartir. «Una voz napoleónica, que no escribe, boxea».--El Cultural Ganador del Premio Goncourt des Lycéens, Gran Premio de Novela de la Academia Francesa, Premio Lire, Premio Qué Leer, Premio San Clemente y Premio Internacional Alicante Noir. Es víspera de Navidad y la visita de la clase de Joséphine al zoo ha sido una catástrofe. Nadie sabe qué ha pasado exactamente y los padres de la niña están dispuestos a descubrirlo. Mientras la investigación avanza, comprendemos poco a poco que una catástrofe nunca llega sola, que las apariencias engañan y que los acontecimientos pueden tomar un giro que nadie imagina. La muy catastrófica visita al zoo nos mantiene en vilo hasta el final; es una novela divertida y emocionante, repleta de guiños sobre nuestra sociedad, sobre la democracia, la educación inclusiva, el rol de los padres y de los maestros. «De las cosas que me cuentan los lectores, lo que más me emociona son las lecturas compartidas en familia, entre amigos o en los clubes de lectura. Por eso he intentado escribir un libro que pudieran leer y compartir todos los lectores, sean como sean y estén donde estén, de 7 a 120 años. Con vuestros hijos, vuestra pareja, vuestros padres, vuestros vecinos o vuestros compañeros de trabajo. Un libro con el que os entren ganas de leer y de que lean otros, sin distinciones. Y que nos permita reencontrarnos». --Joël Dicker ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Joël Dicker, global phenomenon with twenty-two million readers, returns with a book to share and get excited about, "for readers aged 7 to 120." Winner of the Prix Goncourt des Lycéens, Grand Prix du Roman by the Académie Française, Lire Award, Qué Leer Award, San Clemente Award, and Alicante Noir International Award. It's Christmas Eve, and Joséphine's class trip to the zoo has been a catastrophe. Nobody knows what happened exactly, but the girl's parents are willing to find out. While the investigation progresses, we understand little by little that catastrophes never come alone, that looks can be deceiving, and events can take a turn nobody expected. The Very Catastrophic Visit to the Zoo keeps us in suspense to the very end. It is a fun and exciting novel, filled with nods to our society, democracy, inclusive education, and the role of parents and teachers. "From what readers tell me, what thrills me the most is their shared readings with family and friends, and in books clubs. That's why I tried to write a book all readers, aged 7 to 120, could enjoy and share, no matter who they are or where they are. Whether it's with your children, spouse, parents, neighbors, or coworkers. A book that makes you want to read and have others read, regardless. A book that helps us reconnect." --Joël DickerShipping Notes

The Babylonian Empire and the History of Mesopotamia
Format: Kindle
This is a very, very good book on the History of Mesopotamia. The people of Babylon came up with quadratic equations and trigonometry. They kept a log of the position of the planets, of meteor showers, sun rise and sun set, solar and lunar eclipse. The first ruler of Babylon, Hammurabi, came up with "Hammurabi's Law Code" which was written on a stelae and placed where all could read it. The Babylonian doctors wrote the first book on medicine. Back then doctors did not have hospitals to treat patients, patients were either treated at home or they would go to a clinic where doctors could treat them and several other patients overnight.
The Babylonians created a city that became a pilgrimage destination with many temples. The architecture of the famed "hanging gardens" and several other "world wonders" were all located in Babylon, which aided in making the city a place worth travelling to.
So many first happened in Babylon that the best way to find all of it out is by reading the book, which I highly recomend, you will not be disappointed.

The Babylonian Empire
Format: Kindle
This book analyses the achievements and challenges of the Babylonian Empire. It was a significant socio-political entity in Ancient Times. Like Assyria, the Babylonian state retained the written Akkadian language (the language of its native populace) for official use, despite its Northwest Semitic-speaking Amorite founders and Kassite successors, who spoke a language isolate, not being native Mesopotamians. It retained the Sumerian language for religious use (as did Assyria). Still, already by the time, Babylon was founded, this was no longer a spoken language, having been wholly subsumed by Akkadian. The earlier Akkadian and Sumerian traditions played a significant role in Babylonian and Assyrian culture. The region would remain an important cultural center, even under its protracted periods of outside rule. Ganesh of Mari founded the Kassite dynasty.
Both Dynasties were significant. Moreover, The Kassites, like the Amorite rulers who had preceded them, were not originally native to Mesopotamia. They had first appeared in the Zagros Mountains of northwestern Iran today. Overall the book is well-written.
