Jane Austen

Este libro es un estudio crítico profundo sobre la obra de Jane Austen, escrito por el reconocido crítico literario Tony Tanner. Tanner analiza las seis novelas principales de Austen (Orgullo y prejuicio, Emma, Sentido y sensibilidad, entre otras*), explorando su estilo, ironía y visión moral de la sociedad inglesa del siglo XIX. Más que una biografía, es una lectura que ilumina cómo Austen retrata la tensión entre deseo individual y normas sociales, y cómo su narrativa sigue siendo moderna y subversiva.

In The Emergence of Charismatic Business Leadership, Harvard Business School Emeritus professor Richard S. Tedlow examines how the role of the business leader has changed since World War II.

How can you become the next world-changing leader? In order to answer these questions, we must look at leaders like Oprah Winfrey, Elon Musk, and Steve Jobs.

The entrepreneur in the history of political economy

Modern economic theory has marginalised the figure of the entrepreneur, despite their significance in economic activity. Entrepreneurs rose in prominence as economic agents during the Enlightenment, but no consensus on this issue was formed in the period. This book addresses the role of the entrepreneur in the economic thought of the 18th and early 19th centuries, filling a gap in the historiography of economics.
