new. Este livro, que de certo modo continua e completa Dois amores, duas cidades, é como um amplo e movimentado teatro onde falam os personagens mais marcantes e armam-se os acontecimentos mais decisivos do século XX: o caso Dreyfus, a estranha condenação de Action Française, a guerra civil espanhola, as duas guerras mundiais e, finalmente, o Concílio Vaticano II. É também onde se vê que na decorrência de capitulações, conjurações e traições, as chamadas esquerdas, sem mérito próprio de seus dirigentes, foram sempre beneficiárias dos erros cometidos e das vilanias praticadas. Uma das mais funestas conseqüências dos favores concedidos às esquerdas pelo mundo liberal em processo de decomposição foi a infiltração no mundo católico e o surgimento da chamada "nova Igreja". nas páginas deste livro vê-se nascer e crescer o fenômeno mais grave dos últimos vinte séculos.   Capa comum : 516 páginasISBN-10 : 8595071136ISBN-13 : 978-8595071131Dimensões : 22.8 x 15.6 x 2.8 cmEditora : Vide Editorial; 1ª edição (1 janeiro 2020)Nível de leitura : BebêIdioma: : Português

new. Em Tudo ou nada, Malu Gaspar revela os bastidores, segredos e modus operandi do grupo X, de seu nascimento à bancarrota, e radiografa a excêntrica biografia de seu criador. Esta reedição do best-seller é acrescida de posfácio inédito. A história do império de Eike Batista, figura desde sempre controversa pela impetuosidade ― ou temeridade ― de seus projetos, é matéria de extensa investigação jornalística em Tudo ou nada. Malu Gaspar faz um minucioso exame do universo X, ao qual não escapam as negociações com os investidores estrangeiros, o processo de abertura de capital das companhias, as relações com a classe política e todos os fatores que fizeram a letra de Eike Batista tão conhecida e, mais tarde, desacreditada no universo financeiro.Este livro é um relato contundente sobre uma ascensão estrondosa e um debacle igualmente marcante, cujo impacto no mercado brasileiro foi equiparado à quebra do banco Lehman Brothers nos Estados Unidos. Publicado pela primeira vez em 2014, o best-seller é reeditado com posfácio inédito, que aborda os desdobramentos da trágica queda de Eike Batista.       Editora ‏ : ‎ Companhia das Letras; 1ª edição (31 maio 2022)    Idioma ‏ : ‎ Português    Capa comum ‏ : ‎ 536 páginas    ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 655921222X    ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-6559212224    Dimensões ‏ : ‎ 16 x 3.1 x 23 cm
