Javier Moro nos presenta al singularísimo Rafael Guastavino, un auténtico genio de la construcción que deslumbró a los grandes magnates norteamericanos, conquistados por las técnicas que empleaba en sus obras para evitar los incendios, el mayor mal de las megalópolis del siglo XIX. Tuvo una vida jalonada de éxitos: de su estudio salieron construcciones tan «neoyorquinas» como la Estación Central, el gran hall de la isla de Ellis, parte del metro, el Carnegie Hall o el Museo Americano de Historia Natural.

Completely Changed the Way I See Money!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
This book is far more than just a read about finances; it’s a masterclass in financial education that can truly change your life. From the very first page, Robert Kiyosaki challenges you to think differently: stop working just for money and learn how to make money work for you.
I loved how he contrasts the lessons from his “Rich Dad” and “Poor Dad,” and how each story leaves you with practical lessons you can apply immediately. The 25th Anniversary Edition includes updated examples that make complex concepts easy to understand and incredibly actionable.
If you want to take control of your financial future, build income-generating assets, and break free from the “work for money” mindset, this book is an absolute must-read. It’s not just a book—it’s an investment in yourself!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended for anyone who wants to improve their relationship with money and build wealth smartly.
