*Premio Ortega y Gasset de Periodismo a la trayectoria profesional 2023*

El mundo entonces es un fascinante retrato de nuestro presente, una herramienta que sirve para definir qué hacemos, quiénes somos, quiénes -quizá- seremos.

«Martín Caparrós, uno de los más geniales cronistas contemporáneos, depura de manera exquisita, emocionada, vibrante y distanciada una prosa de un poderío narrativo excepcional». Fernando R. Lafuente, ABC Cultural

El mundo entonces es una guía para entender el mundo en que vivimos. Escrito -propone Caparrós- por una historiadora del siglo XXII, resume y entrecruza los principales hilos conductores de nuestra organización social, económica, política y cultural para ofrecernos un panorama general de nuestra sociedad en el fin de la Era del Fuego.

Sus capítulos incluyen desde la explosión demográfica hasta los cambios en el amor, la familia y la situación de las mujeres, pasando por las nuevas formas del trabajo, la irrupción de la IA, el poder de las grandes corporaciones digitales y su peso en nuestras vidas, el avance chino y el descrédito de las democracias, los cambios en el ocio y la alimentación, las nuevas formas de hacer la guerra y las viejas formas de creer en dioses. Todo contado de una forma sencilla y amena, enriquecida por análisis y datos que iluminan nuestra realidad con nuevos sentidos, miradas diferentes.

Una primera aproximación a este proyecto fue publicada a lo largo de varios meses en El País. Este libro es su versión actualizada y aumentada con los perfiles de 25 personajes que definen nuestra época, desde Putin o Messi o Elisabeth Holmes hasta una pastora mongola o un príncipe de las islas Marshall o una obrera bengalí.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

*Ortega y Gasset Award for Career Journalism 2023*

The World Then is a fascinating portrait of our times, a tool for understanding what we do, who we are and, perhaps, who we will become.

The World Then is a guide for understanding the world we live in. Written -Caparrós proposes- by a twenty-second century historian, it summarizes and traces the connections between common themes in the world's main social, economic, political and cultural organization to present a general overview of society at the end of the Age of Fire.

The topics covered range from population explosion, love, the family, and the status of women to new work patterns, the emergence of AI, the power of large digital corporations and their impact on our lives, the rise of China and the decline of democracy, shifting leisure activities and eating habits, new forms of warfare, and old ways of believing in God. The narrative style is simple and accessible, supported by analyses and data that shed light on our reality from different approaches and perspectives.

This updated edition includes profiles of 25 figures who define our times, among them Putin, Messi, Elizabeth Holmes, a Mongolian herder, a Marshall Islands prince and a Bengali worker.

Very Powerful Frother!!
Color: White
I’ve been using a frother daily for my drinks, and this one really impressed me with its power for such a compact size. It blends heavier powders into smooth, clump-free mixtures in seconds. I’m a big fan of the build—the metal whisk gives it a solid feel, and it comes with a stand to keep it neat on the counter instead of being shoved in a drawer. Cleaning is a breeze, just a quick rinse, and the rechargeable battery lasts much longer than I anticipated between charges. Just a little tip: start in a taller cup and don’t fill it all the way to the top, as this thing can create a serious vortex if you’re not careful. Overall, it’s been a super handy little tool, and I’m so glad I bought it.

Mixes my protein shake powder
Color: Blue
My husband and I both drink protein shakes daily. We have vortex mixers that work great, but they are plastic and getting old, and really needed to be replaced. In an effort to reduce microplastics in our lives, I am trying to use less plastic mixing cups. I couldn't find anything small enough (other than regular blenders) with glass and metal parts that would work well for us. During my search on here, several frothers showed up. This one caught my eye because of the amount of sales, quick delivery, and of course, decent pricing. Some of the reviews had me a little skeptical, and time will tell regarding the longevity, but so far I am pleased. My protein powders are on the heavy side, but this little frother really gets the job done. Instead of having to use separate mixing cups (saving me on dishwashing), I just use my morning coffee cup (it's big enough) to mix my protein shake in. My husband just uses a regular glass. Neither of us can believe the power this little thing has. We are getting smooth shakes! Here is what I really like about it: It is powerful and mixes well; the frother is metal and not plastic; it cleans extremely easy; after making several shakes the battery has not died; can be used in glasses, coffee cups, even disposable cups (when we buy donut shop coffee); and I love the little stand which takes up barely any counter space. Less plastic, less clean-up, dependable (so far), and small, making it convenient even for travel. I'm really glad I got this, and hope it will last. One last thing, do not turn it on while cleaning under running water. (Yes, you can laugh.)

Powerful frother with a long rechargeable battery life
Color: Black
After purchasing three of the battery operated frothers. I finally found this amazing frother. It is very powerful so you do have to be careful not to slosh liquid out of your cup when you’re using it. But I have found it helps if you rotate the frother in a stirring motion while you are using it. That really helps keep the liquid from overflowing out of the cup. It has a sleek design and is rechargeable and the charge less about two weeks.I love this one so much. I take it with me when I travel. I actually left my original one at my mother’s house the last time I visited her and have ordered another one for my house. Highly recommend.

Great Power and Creamy Foam
Color: White
This frother is amazing and has really good power. It creates creamy, smooth foam in seconds and works perfectly for iced lattes, cappuccinos, and matcha. I love that it’s rechargeable and lightweight, but still feels strong and high quality. As someone who loves coffee, this has become one of my favorite tools for making café-style drinks at home. Easy to use, easy to clean, and looks beautiful on my coffee station.

Powerful easy to operate but splashes
Color: Black
Excellent frother--Very powerful and easy to turn on/off with one button. The only downside is it requires a deep container in which to froth. The frothing pitcher I had was too small and milk splashes everywhere. There is no lower speed so it works fast. I am using a deep insulated container now for frothing. Otherwise, very quite, easy to operate no pushing down on the top like other frother wands. I love it as long as I can control it to limit the splashing.
