Overview
Su labor periodística sigue resonando de cara al futuro por su compromiso con la verdad.
En la historia de la prensa en México, pocos nombres destacan con tanta contundencia como el de Julio Scherer García, una figura que a lo largo de su trayectoria conjugó su curiosidad por el mundo con su convicción por el poder transformador del periodismo.
Este volumen inaugural de su obra completa muestra la diversidad de intereses que caracterizó su primera etapa profesional. Desde su perfil de la vida de uno de los grandes muralistas mexicanos (Siqueiros: la piel y la entraña) hasta los episodios más oscuros y polémicos de la historia nacional del siglo xx (Estos años), la figura presidencial (Los presidentes; Salinas y su imperio), el sistema penitenciario de este país (Cárceles), o la dañina infiltración de los poderosos en el quehacer de la prensa (El poder. Historias de familia).
