Big Summer is a witty and moving story that dives into the complexities of female friendship, the challenges of living out loud and online, and the resilience of the human heart. Six years after the fight that ended their friendship, Daphne Berg is shockingly reunited with Drue Cavanaugh, who looks as stunning and successful as ever, with a massive favor to ask.

Daphne, who has built a life she loves, including a growing career as a plus-size Instagram influencer, is speechless when Drue asks her to be her maid-of-honor at the society wedding of the summer. Drue, who seemingly had everything, struggled to maintain friendships. Now, Daphne must navigate the risky waters of rekindling a friendship with the glamorous and seductive Drue, which comes with an invitation to a waterfront Cape Cod mansion and the promise of summer excitement.

Big Summer, by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner, is the perfect summer escape, celebrating the beauty of embracing oneself and the enduring power of friendship.

En los futuros donde suceden estos diez relatos, una colecció de dispositivos como pings, ansibles, lentillas, perfiladores o telones sensoriales -algunos de ellos instalados dentro del cuerpo humano- permiten a las personas conectar sus mentes en una nube digital, compartir sus pensamientos y memorias, ponerles filtros a sus percepciones o calcular el éxito de un romance, mientras comen tacos de canasta o navegan sobre las calles de una Ciudad de México totalmente cubierta por el agua.

Con una inteligencia arrasadora, Andrea Chapela enfrenta a las protagonistas a realidades donde el conocimiento científico, la tecnología de punta y la vida cotidiana interactúan de forma cada vez ms intrincada e inevitable, de modo que incluso en la intimidad de la mente ya no reina la voz de la propia conciencia. La tecnología deja de ser un fetiche técnico para mostrar su capacidad de moldear los afectos y los vínculos humanos.

Las protagonistas son mujeres que se encuentran en una disyuntiva en sus relaciones personales a partir de un dispositivo de tecnología mental o de asimilación de la realidad que, a pesar de que debería facilitar la vida, amenaza con volver ms asfixiantes, impredecibles o peligrosas las interacciones humanas. La mente y sus secretos, la percepción y la duda de si percibimos solo lo que deseamos, los límites de la intimidad; estos son algunos de los temas que trata el libro.

How can we turn back the tide of post-truth politics, fake news, and misinformation that is damaging our democracy? First, by empowering citizens to recognize and resist political lies and deceptions: Using cutting-edge neuroscience research, we show you the tricks post-truth politicians use to exploit our mental blindspots and cognitive biases. We then share with you strategies to protect yourself and others from these threats.

Second, by addressing the damage caused by the spread of fake news on social media: We provide you with effective techniques for fighting digital misinformation.

Third, by exerting pressure on politicians, media, and other public figures: Doing so involves creating new incentives for telling the truth, new penalties for lying, and new ways of communicating across the partisan divide. To put this plan into action requires the rise of a Pro-Truth Movement - a movement which has already begun, and is making a tangible impact.
