Insolacion
«Mareo, alcohol, insolación...

¡Pretextos, tonterías...!

Lo que pasa es que me gusta.»

Publicada en la estela de éxitos como Los pazos de Ulloa y La madre naturaleza, Insolación se centra en la relación amorosa que entablan en la feria madrileña de San Isidro Asís Taboada, una viuda de treinta y dos años, y Diego Pacheco, un apuesto joven gaditano. La novela comienza con la protagonista recordando el escarceo del día anterior, pero el fluir de su conciencia pronto se combina con el drama para retratar un amor que no ignora la ley del deseo. Considerada escabrosa en su momento, la obra recibió críticas moralizantes de sus contemporáneos. En la actualidad, sin embargo, se reivindican sus grandes cualidades literarias, así como la denuncia que hizo la autora del doble rasero aplicado a hombres y mujeres en materia sexual.

Los medici 4: La decadencia de una familia
El París del siglo XVII se sostiene sobre los pilares del vicio y la violencia. María de Médici, la reciente esposa de Enrique IV de Borbón, tiene que enfrentarse, nada más llegar a la corte, a la inquina de la favorita del rey, Henriette d'Entragues, quien no ha superado el que no pudiera convertirse en reina de Francia. Pero Henriette es el menor de los problemas de la joven reina consorte.

Obligada a luchar contra la ambición de poder de la aristocracia y a salvaguardar el trono de las constantes conspiraciones, María de Médici se convertirá en una inteligente estratega política y una hábil y valiente defensora de sus derechos, máxime cuando la eterna sombra conspiratoria acabe con la vida de Enrique IV y convierta a María en reina regente de su hijo Luis XIII. En el cardenal Richelieu encontrará un feroz aliado, antes de que la oscura traición se cierna sobre ella y acabe con sus días de gloria y poder.

11 de septiembre
El martes 11 de septiembre de 1973 la autora de este libro partió en su automóvil a La Moneda para acompañar a su padre en la resistencia al golpe de Estado. Salió del palacio antes del bombardeo y, desde ese momento, tuvo que pasar por situaciones angustiantes antes de salir del país con su familia, en calidad de exiliada, el sábado 15 de septiembre.

Este libro, un ejercicio de memoria de lo acontecido durante esa semana, ofrece por primera vez un testimonio de cómo la familia Allende Bussi tuvo que lidiar con episodios dolorosos y resguardados en la intimidad hasta hoy: la muerte del padre, elbombardeo a la residencia presidencial en Tomás Moro, el entierro anónimo en Viña del Mar, la rápida salida de su hermana Beatriz «Tati» Allende con el cuerpo diplomático cubano, el asilo familiar en la Embajada de México yla —hasta último minuto— angustiosa salida del país mediante la valiente gestión del embajador Gonzalo Martínez Corbalá.

Isabel Allende Bussi lleva a cabo una poderosa y pormenorizada evocación de esa semana en que la gesta del presidente Salvador Allende impactó al mundo entero.

Desnudando la mente del consumidor
¡MIREMOS MÁS ALLÁ DEL CONSUMO!
¡DESNUDEMOS LA MENTE DEL CONSUMIDOR!

Insight viene del vocablo in, 'adentro', y sight, 'visión'. Por tanto, significa mirar dentro de las personas, mirar más allá de lo evidente, desnudar la mente y su corazón. Los insights representan descubrimientos o revelaciones sobre las formas de actuar, pensar y sentir del consumidor, y al descubrirlos se pueden gatillar o inspirar innovadoras estrategias de marketing, construcción de marca y de planificación estratégica. Ello supone entender los mecanismos de la mente humana y la psicología.

En la base de toda esta filosofía de marketing está la consideración de que la persona (en su rol de consumidor) debe ser valorado no solo como agente económico, sino, sobre todo, como ser humano. La necesidad de ir en búsqueda de su corazón y no solo de su bolsillo. De ahí que se requiera desnudar primero nuestra propia mente, antes de desnudar la mente de nuestros consumidores.

Este libro intenta representar una versión teórico-práctica de los fundamentos del consumer insight como concepto, herramienta y fundamento de un marketing de consumo céntrico, es decir, un marketing basado en las personas.

En estas páginas se detallan las técnicas, las herramientas y los casos de marcas que han construido sus promesas de valor o estrategias fundamentales en estas verdades humanas. En esta nueva edición se incluyen 11 casos de aplicación del insight en sectores/industrias como las microfinanzas, educación, construcción, inmobiliaria, cuidado personal, consumo masivo, entre otras. ¿Insighteamos?
