In our commitment to expand our selection of books in Spanish, we are pleased to


introduce, in this catalog, the latest collection of titles from our current, noteworthy
publishers, as well as announce the addition of four new publishers to our list of clients:

body/mind/spirit books.

Ediciones Oblicuas, with its principal office in Barcelona, Spain, and a U.S. office in

Libre para soñar


Ana Frank
Free to Dream: Anne Frank
Miguel Ángel Álvarez Pérez
• Part of the Biografía joven series
Another installment of the series that puts within the reach of
young adult readers the lives of individuals—scientists, explorers,
humanists—who distinguished themselves by their contributions
to history and progress, this book tells the story of Anne Frank.
Anne had just turned 13 years old when her family went into hid-
ing to escape the Nazi invaders of the Netherlands. For more than
two years, the Franks lived in a secret suite of rooms in the build-
ing where Anne’s father worked. It was during this time that the
young Anne began keeping a journal that detailed the difficulties
of life in hiding, her relationship with her parents and her sister,
the daily fear of being discovered, and her earliest experiences with
romance. This novelized biography of Frank’s life exposes young
readers to her courage and confidence, while allowing the themes
of courage and friendship to shine through.
Miguel Ángel Álvarez Pérez is a high school teacher, a journalist,
and a musician who has worked as a classical music and theater
critic for various Spanish magazines. He is the author of El joven
que llegó a Papa: Juan Pablo II, also in the Biografía joven series.

La felicidad de Francisco
Palabras de amor, paz e inspiración
para alcanzar la dicha
The Happiness of Francisco: Words of Love,
Peace, and Inspiration to Achieve Happiness
Edited by Mario Bérgamo
Gathering the thoughts and reflections of Jorge Mario Bergoglio—now

sage advice on universal topics such as love, friendship, work, persever-
ance, the future, and the struggle to overcome life’s challenges. These
meditations, which include the Pope’s most recent musings as well as
those from his days as the archbishop and then cardinal of Buenos
Aires, constitute a compendium of faith, love, and wisdom that can
lead to a fulfilling, beneficial life. Christian and non-Christian readers
alike will find invaluable guidance for their daily journey in the pages
of this book.
Mario Bérgamo is a freelance writer and journalist who has collaborated
with a number of different publications in Argentina and Italy and who
has covered several papal conclaves.

Written by the world’s foremost Power Pivot blogger and

the core capability of Power Pivot, from the perspective
of the Excel audience in a simple, step-by-step manner
tailored to its learning style. The techniques presented
allow individuals to produce, in hours or even minutes,
results that formerly would have taken entire teams weeks
or months to produce and include lessons on the difference
between calculated columns and measures, how formulas
can be reused across reports of completely different shapes,
how to merge disjointed sets of data into unified reports,
how to make certain columns in a pivot behave as if the
pivot were filtered while other columns do not, and how
to create time-intelligent calculations in pivot tables such
as “Year over Year” and “Moving Averages” whether they
use a standard, fiscal, or a complete custom calendar. The
“pattern-like” techniques and best practices contained in
this book have been developed and refined over two years
of onsite training with Excel users around the world, and
now those key lessons—usually available in seminars cost-
