GRANDES PERSONAJES QUE CAMBIARON LA HISTORIA
A book that brings the history of humanity to life through the stories of 25 of its all time most important characters, with the sense of fun and energy typical of illustrator Enrique Vegas and writer Javier Matesanz. Without these 25 great figures, the world would be completely different. Sometimes we aren’t aware of how brilliant the human mind can be or of the wonderful things that people have achieved over the course of our history. It would be difficult to survive without penicillin or imagine the world map without America or a library without books. Aren't we more cultured and happy thanks to the genius of the Beatles, Picasso and Shakespeare? And aren’t we better as human beings thanks to the kindness of people like Gandhi, Mother Teresa of Calcutta or Nelson Mandela?
