Economica
'Erudite, ambitious and richly global in scope' - PETER FRANKOPAN, author of The Silk Roads
'This book sets a new standard in economic history' - TIM HARFORD, author of How To Make the World Add Up
How many times have we been told that the working woman is a modern phenomenon? That men were responsible for the prosperity of humanity? That women's production was, for much of human history, confined to reproduction?
Economica shows that women have always been at the heart of economic progress, as entrepreneurs, merchants and industrialists - from Phryne, the richest woman in Ancient Athens, to Ching Shih, a sex-worker turned pirate who controlled trade in the South China Sea. Author Victoria Bateman also highlights the amazing stories of female workers who built the Pyramids, traded on the Silk Road and dominated London's medieval breweries.
Spanning the past twelve millennia, from the Stone Age to the present day, Economica rewrites our understanding of women's role in the economy, and tells a more accurate history of us all.

Marco Polo - Berlin
Szeretnél három operaház közül választani, parkban szóló zenére spontán táncra perdülni, angolul rendelni vietnami kávét vagy Trabantba ülni a Reichstag előtt? Akkor irány Berlin! A Marco Polo sorozat legújabb kötete Németország nemzetközi és sokoldalú fővárosába kalauzol el. A Best of... zöld és méltányos (pl. Zéró hulladék), olcsó (pl. A fal nyomában), gyerekeknek való (pl. Buli a múzeumban) és tipikus ajánlatok (pl. Quadriga tizenkét oszlopon) után megismertet a könyv a város sajátosságaival, majd az egyes negyedekkel: Mitte történelemmel terhes, a császári palotától a sztálini sugárútig. Tiergarten a kormányzati negyed, bevásárlóutcák és néhány kocogóval. Prenzlauer Berg/Friedrichshainban menő berliniek élnek a falmaradványok árnyékában. Kreuzbergben a punk és a polgári lét találkozik zsidó hagyományok és török hétköznapok között. Charlottenburg/Wilmersdorf a notórius bevásárlók, az ínyencek, a kultúra iránt érdeklődők és a sportkedvelők negyede. A sorozatra jellemző élménytúrák Berlinbe végigvisznek az egykori fal mentén, történelmi sétára hívnak Spandauba, kicsábítanak biciklivel a zöldbe és hajózásra invitálnak a cityn keresztül. Fedezd fel Marco Polóval a nagy múltú, modern és dinamikus Berlint!
