“Life Told by a Sapiens to a Neanderthal” by Juan José Millás and Juan Luis Arsuaga

The authors bring us closer to some of the most relevant milestones that have characterized the evolution of the human species, from the proximity that involves the observation (and experimentation) of different daily situations in our current contemporary environment.

The narration stands out by the comprehensibility and naturalness that are intrinsic to the “one-on-one” dialogues between the 2 authors (the prestigious paleontologist and journalist) and which follow one another throughout the work.

 

“How they rule the world” by Pedro Baños

The author, a Spanish military and Colonel of the Army, exposes the historic background and motivations that have provoked the beginning of the great wars in our time, as well as the keys to exercise geostrategic control by the major world powers.

Besides that, and taking into account that the kind of “weapons” and the way to use them to fight a war have been modified in our current society, some principles described in this book could be easily extrapolated in the field of political influence at the territorial and supranational level.

 

“Ice times” by Fred Vargas

In this book, the author brings us deep into the history of some crimes that took place in the current time and others that happened 50 years ago. The story presents as background the organization of secret meetings that evoke the influence and legacy of the French politician Robespierre and the experiences of a group, with no relationship between the members, during a trip to Iceland.

In my opinion, this book is one of the author´s best novels, that combines on one hand, suspense until the end and on the other hand, some great historical and philosophical concepts.
