Not every “Complete Ethiopian Bible in English” is what it claims to be. As new editions flood the market—some presenting unverified or AI-generated translations as authentic Ethiopian Scripture—the Ultimate Ethiopian Bible offers something different: a carefully researched, modern-English collection rooted in the genuine scriptural tradition of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Because the Ethiopian Bible was never formally fixed by a single, universally binding canon decree, claims of one definitive “complete” canon can be misleading. This massive edition brings together 88 complete, unabridged books in print, including the Holy Bible, authentic Ethiopian Meqabyan, Enoch, and other apocrypha, while clearly expanding beyond the Ethiopian tradition with Acts 29 and 2 and 3 Enoch. Plus, access thousands of additional books of apocrypha, hundreds of videos, and hundreds of hours of audiobooks in the included digital library. The Ultimate Ethiopian Bible includes: * 88 books in print, including the complete Old and New Testaments, whereas most other collections include only 22 apocryphal books in print * Literally thousands of apocryphal books via digital access, vastly exceeding all other collections * Superior 10-pt print, comparable to most study Bibles, that is professionally typeset, whereas other collections use tiny, hard-to-read font with unprofessional typesetting * In easy-to-read English with accurate and consistent formal equivalent translation throughout, whereas other collections use archaic public domain material that is mismatched, incomplete, and unprofessionally sourced * Hundreds of professionally-collated videos that you can access with your mobile device while you read * Hundreds of hours of audio via the Ultimate Ethiopian Bible audiobook included with the digital library * Includes the only fully revised and updated modern English versions of 1, 2, and 3 Meqabyan, Enoch, and others (books unique to the Ethiopian canon), that are either excluded from other collections or included in non-standard English; also includes digital versions of Jubilees, Josippon, and the Paralipomena of Jeremiah * Tons of exciting extras including charts, maps, apologetics, book intros, a glossary, and much more There are now dozens of Ethiopian Bible options available, but how can you choose the right one? Look no further. With the Ultimate Ethiopian Bible in English, you get the complete Old Testament, New Testament, and 22 additional books in print, including all three of the genuine books of Meqabyan and all three books of Enoch, whereas many other options give you only 22 apocryphal books in print and everything else via digital download. Other options also give you mismatched, incomplete, or AI-generated material that is hard to read and unprofessionally collated. Don't settle for less. With this comprehensive collection, you get 88 books in print with a copious, easy-to-read font. Via digital download, you also have access to thousands of additional apocryphal books, greatly surpassing every other option available, both in number and in formatting, readability, and ease of use. Also gain access to hundreds of hours of audio and hundreds of videos that you can watch while you read, professionally selected and collated. Professionally designed and typeset: * Elegant, easy-to-read, 10-point typeface * High-quality, crème paper for an antique feel and minimum bleed-through * Handsome hardcover with matte finish and gold filigree design * Easy-to-read modern English translation * Literal and word-for-word * Fully versified with easy navigation * Professional, triple-column, line-matched layout

Pasado, presente y futuro del dinero: de las piedras al Bitcoin. Una exploración completa y autorizada de Bitcoin y su lugar en la historia monetaria. Cuando en 2008 un programador informático desconocido anunció que había creado un nuevo sistema de dinero electrónico con tecnología peer-to-peer (P2P), pocos prestaron atención. En la actualidad, el Bitcoin es ya una alternativa descentralizada a los bancos centrales y al dinero físico. El patrón Bitcoin analiza el contexto histórico del surgimiento de esta nueva moneda, las propiedades económicas que la han permitido crecer rápidamente y sus implicaciones económicas, políticas y sociales. El profesor y economista Saifedean Ammous explica, con afán pedagógico, la historia del dinero y expone por qué el futuro pertenece al Bitcoin, que, gracias a la tecnología blockchain, ofrece un servicio de pago confiable, seguro y llamado a plantar cara al monopolio de los bancos centrales.  Desde las piedras preciosas hasta las monedas de curso corriente, pasando por el patrón oro y las burbujas de expansión crediticia, la historia del dinero es la de crisis y rupturas que buscan ser superadas. Este libro argumenta por qué el Bitcoin puede llegar a ser la solución a este problema histórico. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Past, present and future of money: from stones to Bitcoin. A comprehensive and authoritative exploration of Bitcoin and its place in monetary history. When a pseudonymous programmer introduced “a new electronic cash system that’s fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party” to a small online mailing list in 2008, very few people paid attention. Ten yearsT later, and against all odds, this upstart autonomous decentralized software offers an unstoppable and globally accessible hard money alternative to modern central banks. The Bitcoin Standard analyzes the historical context to the rise of Bitcoin, the economic properties that have allowed it to grow quickly, and its likely economic, political, and social implications. he book moves on to explain the operation of Bitcoin in a functional and intuitive way. Bitcoin is a decentralized, distributed piece of software that converts electricity and processing power into indisputably accurate records, thus allowing its users to utilize the Internet to perform the traditional functions of money without having to rely on, or trust, any authorities or infrastructure in the physical world. Bitcoin is thus best understood as the first successfully implemented form of digital cash and digital hard money. With an automated and perfectly predictable monetary policy, and the ability to perform final settlement of large sums across the world in a matter of minutes, Bitcoin’s real competitive edge might just be as a store of value and network for the final settlement of large payments―a digital form of gold with a built-in settlement infrastructure. Ammous’ firm grasp of the technological possibilities as well as the historical realities of monetary evolution provides for a fascinating exploration of the ramifications of voluntary free market money. As it challenges the most sacred of government monopolies, Bitcoin shifts the pendulum of sovereignty away from governments in favor of individuals, offering us the tantalizing possibility of a world where money is fully extricated from politics and unrestrained by borders. The final chapter of the book explores some of the most common questions surrounding Bitcoin: Is Bitcoin mining a waste of energy? Is Bitcoin for criminals? Who controls Bitcoin, and can they change it if they please? How can Bitcoin be killed? And what to make of all the thousands of Bitcoin knockoffs, and the many supposed applications of Bitcoin’s ‘block chain technology’? The Bitcoin Standard is the essential resource for a clear understanding of the rise of the Internet’s decentralized, apolitical, free-market alternative to national central banks.

La historia demuestra que las sociedades que abrazan la libertad alcanzan mayores niveles de prosperidad. La Era Milei revela que el milagro argentino no es una quimera, sino el resultado natural de aplicar principios sólidos y coherentes. Philipp Bagus, destacado exponente de la Escuela Austriaca y discípulo de Jesús Huerta de Soto, ofrece en esta obra una mirada lúcida del presente argentino y una hoja de ruta para el futuro del liberalismo. Más que un análisis de la figura presidencial, este libro es una exploración profunda de los valores que han impulsado el desarrollo de las naciones: la defensa de la propiedad privada, la reducción del Estado y la recuperación de una ética en la economía de mercado. Bagus explica cómo el fenómeno Milei transformó ideas marginales en una fuerza capaz de desafiar el statu quo en América Latina. Con claridad pedagógica, analiza las causas del colapso económico argentino, las estrategias para combatir el estatismo y el impacto cultural del enfoque paleolibertario. Las ideas tienen consecuencias, y esta obra es una poderosa prueba de ello.
