Publisher's summary
Estamos frente a una revolución como nunca antes había sucedido, un cambio profundo que no solo transforma lo que hacemos sino también lo que somos. Hoy resulta esencial reconocer qué es aquello que nos hace humanos, cuáles son los lazos que nos sostienen como especie y nos alejan de nuestras zonas oscuras, individualistas, menos gregarias.
En este contexto, el nuevo libro de Facundo Manes y Mateo Niro se vuelve tan vital como indispensable. Porque la capacidad de pensar de manera crítica, de observar y reflexionar, de poder tomar decisiones que tengan en cuenta sus consecuencias a corto y a largo plazo serán habilidades imprescindibles, tanto como la posibilidad de adaptar nuestra conducta a escenarios cambiantes en un mundo que tal vez no vuelva a ser el mismo.
Empatía, inteligencia colectiva, resiliencia, cooperación, solidaridad, propósito, bienestar, emoción, creatividad, autorregulación, inteligencia emocional, compasión. Herramientas sociales y emocionales que Ser humanos pone a nuestro alcance de manera lúcida, clara, precisa. Un cuaderno de bitácora necesario para entender el camino hasta acá y un mapa para encarar el gran desafío colectivo del siglo XXI: comprendernos, fortalecernos y ser, cada día, más y mejores humanos.

En todo el mundo, las democracias se enfrentan a un enemigo nuevo e implacable que no tiene ejército ni armada; no procede de ningún país que podamos señalar en un mapa, porque no viene de ahí fuera, sino de aquí dentro. En lugar de desafiar a las sociedades libres con la destrucción desde el exterior, amenaza con corroerlas desde el interior.

In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

In The Quantum Universe, Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw approach the world of quantum mechanics in the same way they did in Why Does E=mc2? and make fundamental scientific principles accessible - and fascinating - to everyone.The subatomic realm has a reputation for weirdness, spawning any number of profound misunderstandings, journeys into Eastern mysticism, and woolly pronouncements on the interconnectedness of all things. Cox and Forshaw's contention? There is no need for quantum mechanics to be viewed this way.

The real stories behind the scenery of America’s national parks. For 12 years, Andrea Lankford lived in the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working a job she loved.
