  El Parque Natural del Cadí-Moixeró es un espacio protegido que se extiende por tres comarcas, el Berguedà, la Cerdanya y el Alt Urgell. Es una reserva de montaña, con una orografía que oscila entre los 800 m en el fondo de los valles hasta los 2.648 m de su punto culminante, el Vulturó o Puig de la Canal Baridana. Las montañas que forman la reserva natural son la sierra del Cadí, la sierra del Moixeró, el macizo del Pedraforca y parte de la Tosa y del Puigllançada.
  Las excursiones escogidas para este libro, pensadas para todos los públicos, se adentran por los senderos de los magníficos bosques del parque, recorren la ribera de sus ríos, se asoman a miradores privilegiados, callejean por pueblos plenos de encanto y ascienden a algunos de sus picos, como el Pedraforca, una montaña emblemática del excursionismo catalán, a la que también rodearemos por caminos bien trazados que nos enseñan todas las caras de la mítica montaña.

  Without Helmets or Shoulder Pads...

  “Football’s massive popularity is undeniable, as are the many reasons players and fans are drawn to the game. But what is also undeniable is the game’s brutality and the troubling aspects of football culture at all levels. To whatever extent the reader shares Irv Muchnick’s perspective and conclusions, the evidence and arguments he presents deserve thoughtful attention.” — Bob Costas, Emmy Award–winning sportscaster 
  		 
  “Muchnick’s jeremiad digs deeper than ever into the greed and hypocrisy of high school and college football, and the trail of broken bodies left in their wake. His information on the perils of conditioning is essential reading and might save your kid’s life.” — Robert Lipsyte, author of The Contender and SportsWorld
  		 
  Football’s concussion crisis is well known, with our Hall of Fame heroes behaving erratically and dying young. But did you know that kid players across the continent die every year before a single ball is snapped — just from extreme conditioning drills directed by all-powerful coaches? And then, when the unimaginable happens, the football world simply buries the evidence, pays off victims’ families, and moves on …
  		 
  Without Helmets or Shoulder Pads presents the shocking stories of young men struck down by exertional heatstroke and other, often unacknowledged, causes. Taking the conversation about football and public health to a new level with investigations of the sport’s underreported worst tragedies and cover-ups it makes the case that no matter how much we enjoy America’s most popular sport at elite levels it belongs out of our public schools and off our public fields.
