Book Synopsis



Por fin vas a entender la Historia.

Juan Eslava Galán, que nos deleitó con su ya mítica Historia de España contada para escépticos, nos sorprende ahora con una historia del mundo igualmente ágil y divertida, provocadora y didáctica, que entre sonrisas o francas carcajadas nos conducirá en breves y sustanciosos capítulos desde el Big Bang que provocó el origen del universo hasta la globalización y las crisis de nuestros días.

Un libro sin desperdicio en el que no falta su habitual estilo sarcástico y siempre provocativo, que despeja cuestiones tan «candentes» como por qué era irresistible Cleopatra o por qué Franco permaneció en el poder gracias a Stalin.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

History will finally make sense to you.

Juan Eslava Galán, who captivated readers with his now-classic Historia de España contada para escépticos, returns with an equally engaging and provocative history of the world. Through short and compelling chapters, he takes us from the Big Bang to globalization and the crises of our time--mixing humor, sarcasm, and sharp wit along the way.

This is a book that doesn't waste a single word, tackling fascinating historical questions such as why Cleopatra was irresistible or how Franco remained in power--thanks to Stalin.
