Paperback. Condizione: Good. Una llamada a la acción para empoderar a las mujeres y cambiar el mundo. «En su libro, Melinda cuenta las historias de las personas inspiradoras con las que trabaja en el mundo, profundiza en los datos y crea cuestiones poderosamente importantes que necesitan nuestra atención desde la infancia hasta la inequidad de género en el lugar de trabajo.» - Presidente Barack Obama «No hay vuelta atrás es un llamamiento urgente a la valentía. Ha cambiado la percepción que tengo de mí misma, de mi familia, de mi trabajo y de lo que es posible y no lo es en este mundo. Melinda aúna un relato vulnerable y valiente con distintos datos convincentes para crear uno de esos escasos libros que sigue en tu mente y corazón incluso después de haberlo terminado.» - Brené Brown, autora de Los dones de la imperfección. Durante los últimos veinte años, Melinda Gates se ha dedicado a buscar soluciones para las personas de cualquier lugar con mayores necesidades. Durante esa época, fue comprendiendo que, si queremos que la sociedad despegue, hay que dejar de oprimir a las mujeres. En este libro conmovedor y convincente, Melinda comparte las lecciones que ha aprendido de las personas que la han inspirado y a quienes ha conocido en su trabajo y viajes por todo el mundo. Como dice en la introducción, «Por eso tenía que escribir este libro: para compartir la historia de aquellas personas que me han ayudado a centrarme y a priorizar. Me gustaría que todos encontráramos maneras de ayudar a las mujeres en cualquier lugar del mundo». Melinda nos ofrece un discurso inolvidable, respaldado por datos alarmantes, donde nos presenta los problemas que requieren nuestra mayor atención: desde el matrimonio infantilhasta la falta de acceso a los anticonceptivos o la desigualdad de género en el lugar de trabajo. Además, Melinda escribe por primera vez sobre su vida personal y el camino recorrido hasta la igualdad en su propio matrimonio y nos muestra que nunca habían existido tantas oportunidades como ahora para cambiar el mundo y a nosotros mismos. Con emoción, franqueza y elegancia, Melinda nos presenta mujeres extraordinarias y nos demuestra la fuerza resultante de la conexión entre ellas. En un momento en el que ya no hay vuelta atrás en el empoderamiento de las mujeres, Melinda Gates nos anima a seguir avanzando porque, cuando ayudamos a que los demás despeguen, nosotros también despegamos. Y cuando las mujeres despegan, la humanidad entera despega. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A debut from Melinda Gates, a timely and necessary call to action for women''s empowerment.  "The Moment of Lift is an urgent call to courage. It changed how I think about myself, my family, my work, and what''s possible in the world. Melinda weaves together vulnerable, brave storytelling and compelling data to make this one of those rare books that you carry in your heart and mind long after the last page." ―Brené Brown, Ph.D., author of the New York Times #1 bestseller Dare to Lead "In her book, Melinda tells the stories of the inspiring people she''s met through her work all over the world, digs into the data, and powerfully illustrates issues that need our attention―from child marriage to gender inequity in the workplace." ― President Barack Obama "Melinda Gates has spent many years working with women around the world. This book is an urgent manifesto for an equal society where women are valued and recognized in all spheres of life. Most of all, it is a call for unity, inclusion and connection. We need this message more than ever." ― Malala Yousafzai "Melinda Gates''s book is a lesson in listening. A powerful, poignant, and ultimately humble call to arms." ― Tara Westover, author of the New York Times #1 bestseller Educated "How can we summon a moment of lift for human beings - and especially for women? Because when you lift up women, you lift up humanity." For the last twenty years, Melinda Gates has been on a mission to find solutions for people with the most urgent needs, wherever they live. Throughout this journey, one thing has become increasingly clear to her: If you want to lift a society up, you need to stop keeping women down. In this moving and compelling book, Melinda shares lessons she''s learned from the inspiring people she''s met during her work and travels around the world. As she writes in the introduction, "That is why I had to write this book―to share the stories of people who have given focus and urgency to my life. I want all of us to see ways we can lift women up where we live." Melinda''s unforgettable narrative is backed by startling data as she presents the issues that most need our attention―from child marriage to lack of access to contraceptives to gender inequity in the workplace. And, for the first time, she writes about her personal life and the road to equality in her own marriage. Throughout, she shows how there has never been more opportunity to change the world―and ourselves. Writing with emotion, candor, and grace, she introduces us to remarkable women and shows the power of connecting with one another. When we lift others up, they lift us up, too.…
