Story
Here is Nelson Mandela the statesman, the prisoner, the father, sometimes the joker, and occasionally the disciplinarian. Mandela is shown in snapshot, in the memories of old friends like George Bizos, in the words of inspiring legends like Muhammed Ali, leading the Defiance Campaign against apartheid laws, or doing the famous Madiba shuffle to Ladysmith Black Mambazo with Queen Elizabeth II. 100 Mandela Moments is an accessible introduction to the man who so profoundly influenced the South Africa of today.

Story
On October 31, 1803, the frigate USS Philadelphia ran aground on a reef a few miles outside the harbor of Tripoli. After hours under fire, the Philadelphia, aground and defenseless, surrendered, and 307 American sailors and marines were captured. The bashaw ordered the crew moved into an old warehouse, and the officers were eventually moved to a dungeon beneath the Bashaw's castle. While the officers were treated as "gentlemen," although imprisoned, the sailors worked as enslaved laborers.

Story
On August 4, 1972, Idi Amin ordered the expulsion of over 80,000 Ugandan Asians from the country. A brave few stayed, but most left to Asia or Europe. Stripped of everything, my family chose to start over in Britain. Our story is just one of tens of thousands. I lived history. Though others may tell it differently, this is my experience. My family and I built ourselves from the ground up, standing strong against an endless wave of racism that sought to keep us in our place. To be able to simply walk down the street in peace once seemed impossible.

Story
Wussten Sie, dass Miguel de Cervantes fünf Jahre lang als Sklave in Nordafrika vegetierte, bevor er seinen weltberühmten Romanhelden Don Quijote gegen Windmühlen kämpfen ließ? Dass er nur einer von rund 3,7 Millionen Europäern war, die in der Neuzeit, also seit 1500, versklavt wurden? Dass weite Küstenabschnitte in Italien menschenleer waren, weil die Bewohner aus Angst vor den Sklavenjägern ihre Dörfer am Meer verließen? Das millionenfache Leid der "weißen Sklaven" – den Begriff prägte der US-Senator und Anti-Sklaverei-Kämpfer Charles Sumner 1847 – ist heute weitgehend vergessen.

Story
Los africanos tienen una larga historia, aunque no todo se ha conservado por escrito. Y muchas historias folklóricas se han transmitido de generación en generación. Las tribus africanas varían tanto como los colores del arcoíris. Es por estas razones, y también por entretenimiento, que se ha elaborado este libro. Incluye varios cuentos mitológicos que se refieren a dioses, criaturas y entidades africanas. Algunos de estos tienen moral. Otros son simbólicos de una cosa u otra. Con todo, este es un libro breve pero divertido e intrigante sobre la cultura africana.

Story
The “Presidency” has developed into the most powerful institution in the world. These individuals can start and end wars, grow or destroy economies, leave their countries in a better or worse place. The impact of political leadership is felt more acutely in countries that are still developing. This is particularly true across Africa where political leaders are a strong determinant of a country’s sustainable growth trajectory, or lack thereof.

Idolatrado por unos, calumniado por otros, desconocido para la mayoría, ¿qué es en realidad el Frente Polisario? El Frente Polisario es la organización creada para liberar al Sahara Occidental del colonialismo. Idolatrado o calumniado, se habla mucho del Frente, pero se le conoce poco. A menudo los mismos que afirman que la relación con Marruecos es de la máxima importancia en la política exterior española desconocen o fomentan el desconocimiento sobre el Frente Polisario, a pesar de que éste es una de las preocupaciones máximas de la política exterior de Marruecos.

I över 200 år har Egyptens urgamla monument lockat till sig forskare och nyfikna turister från hela världen. Allt från små barnmumier till gigantiska pyramider har undersökts i försöken att kartlägga en av världens äldsta civilisationer, först med skärslevar, penslar och arkeologisk grundlighet, sedan med avancerade skannrar och DNA-analyser. Trots de omfattande undersökningarna har ingen ännu hittat de slutgiltiga svaren på alla de gåtor som riket längs Nilen lämnade efter sig när det kollapsade för nästan 2000 år sedan.
