Transcript of RBA National Geographic
MagazinesRBA and National Geographic maintain a solid partnership that has been long and firmly
well established. We were the first licensee to publish the NG magazine in a language
other than English and, since then, we are the only licensee who has developed and
continues to develop more NG content in the entire world.
In addition to publishing the NG magazine in Spain and Portugal, RBA has created two
other monthly magazines: VIAJES NG (TRAVEL) (2000) and HISTORY NG (2003), both
with content entirely developed by ourselves. At present we publish National Geographic
History in Spain, Italy and Portugal and have licensed them in France (Le Monde),
Holland (G+J) and the US (National Geographic).
Also, worthy to note, in the year 2000 RBA was the first company to create monographic
special issues. A concept, which a few years later was imported by National Geographic
into the US. We have, since then, developed and published hundreds of them, which have
also been translated into several.
On a final note, we have developed hundreds of books for trade, with the branding NG,
both for adults and children, surpassing sales of over 15 million copies worldwide.

MATHEMATICSSCIENCE
Why is the world the way it is? This question has
been enthralling mankind since time immemorial.
Science is an attempt to answer this great question.
Without the theory of relativity, quantum mechanics,
universal gravitation or geometry, it is impossible to
understand the world and the way we live today.
In each special issue you will immerse yourself in the
live and time of a great genius.
Here you will find themes and theories that will
open your eyes to the world. Simple explanations
and rational arguments make the text easy to follow,
while box features look at historical background and
bring an insight into how mathematics is a part
of our everyday lives.

The beautiful language of mathematics
Can you express beauty in mathematical terms?
Since ancient times, the golden section (or golden
ratio) has been considered a yardstick for beauty,
and mathematicians have applied their theories to all manner
of visual delights. Discover, too, how the series of numbers
identified by Fibonacci obeys the rules of the golden ratio.

The face of Albert Einstein is one of the most recognizable
of the last century, alongside film stars or major political
figures. Now that the echoes of the troubled period he lived
through have died down, his extraordinary scientific
contributions endure: above all else, the theory of relativity,
which changed our notions
of space and time forever.

DARK MATTER
In recent decades it has been found that a new
type of matter, radically different from the traditional
one, spreads all over the universe. Called “dark”, as
it is so difficult to detect it. Along with the no less
mysterious “dark energy”, it constitutes 95% of the
total content of the cosmos. So dense are they that
the fate of the entire universe depends on them.

Meet the Dinosaurs!
We tend to use the word “dinosaur” for any prehistoric
creature, but, actually, only the ones that lived on land
deserve the name. Ancient flying reptiles are known as
pterosaurs and there were many types of marine reptiles,
such as plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, ichtyosaurs and nothosaurs.
Within this sumptuous book and its dynamic layout of graphics
and intricate illustrations discover all the secrets of each
type of pre-historic creature.
