Jesús de Nazaret fue más que un hombre.Las pruebas lo confirman.Solo hay dos alternativas: Jesús es Dios o no lo es. El objetivo de este libro es ayudarle a decidirse. Pongamos todas las preguntas sobre la mesa: ¿mentia Jesus cuando se declaraba hijo de Dios? ¿Era acaso un loco? ¿Se inventaron otros su mito y lo convirtieron en algo que nunca fue?¿Manipulacion, mito, mentiroso, maniaco o Mesias?No hay mas. Pero si descartamos las cuatro primeras, se vera obligado a aceptar la ultima. Este no un libro de religion ni de teologia, es un libro de divulgacion cientifica e historica: porque, con ambas en la mano, la evidencia de que Jesus es Dios resulta tan abrumadora que escapar por las fisuras de la incredulidad se vuelve casi imposible. Repasando los ultimos descubrimientos cientificos, historicos y arqueologicos de que disponemos, nos enfrentamos a la unica verdad posible:Jesucristo es quien dijo ser.

Una obra reveladora y personal donde Ignacio Morgado se adentra en la gran pregunta que ciencia, psicología y filosofía buscan responder.Cuando pensamos nuestra mente la sentimos como algo cambiante, que fluye y se nos escapa a cada momento, yendo mas alla de nosotros mismos. Aunque compleja y misteriosa, la mente es lo mas familiar y propio que tenemos, aquello con lo que cada uno se identifica. La mente es una coleccion de procesos que el cerebro hace posibles.Ignacio Morgado se adentra en el gran misterio de la consciencia aportando sus propias respuestas y explicaciones, y al mismo tiempo, interpelando al lector y motivandole para alcanzar tambien sus conclusiones sobre tan apasionante tema.

La conexión entre lo que crees y lo que creasEn contra de la arraigada idea que ha vinculado siempre la manifestación con el pensamiento positivo o una fuerza superior fuera de nuestro control, este libro deja de lado la vertiente espiritual y se basa en los ultimos avances de la neurociencia para demostrar que, en realidad, cumplir nuestros sueños depende sobre todo de nosotros mismos: es posible aprovechar la capacidad del cerebro y moldearla a nuestro favor. A traves de estrategias comprobadas y conceptos innovadores, descubriras como tomar el control de tu futuro y construir la vida que siempre has deseado.

The Essential George Boole: Logic, Love and Legacyis a captivating portrait of a brilliant mind and the family that shaped him. George Boole, a largely self-taught genius, as a youth mastered multiple languages and scientific disciplines and later developed symbolic logic and what is now called Boolean algebra, the foundation of modern computing. He rose from poverty to become a respected professor at Queens College Cork, now University College Cork. It is believed by some that he inspired Arthur Conan Doyles creation of Professor Moriarty, the arch-enemy of Sherlock Holmes. But Booles story isnt just about logical and mathematical prowess. He was married to a remarkable woman, educationalist Mary Everest. Their five remarkable daughters and subsequent generations carried on a legacy of brilliance, breaking barriers in science, medicine and literature. Geoffrey Hinton, George Booles great great-grandson, is the 2024 Nobel Laureate in Physics. Booles story as one of the founders of the digital age is one of perseverance, love and ideas that changed virtually everything.

In 2012, Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler published Abundance in which they made bold predictions about where the future was heading, if humanity only harnessed the powers of emerging tech. Those predictions have borne out in the real world. In We Are As Gods, they will document the on-the-ground reality of this shift, detailing the massive transformations that have occurred during this past decade, their profound implications for our day-to-day lives, and whats in store during the decade ahead.From companies producing meat from stem cells to meet the increasing protein demands of billions to 3D printing technology that can build incredible custom-designed homes to the estimated ten billion humanoid robots that will operate alongside humanity by 2040, Diamandis and Kotler consider a future in which our role as humans is reinvented. Along the way, theyll look at the dark side of abundance - the carbon-hungry needs of AI, growing mental health crises and concerns around techno-unemployment - and offer the reader a survival guide for thriving amidst chaos.

In 1945 women joined the ranks of the Royal Society, the UKs premier scientific academy, for the first time. Over the next decade, 11 women became FRSs. Few of these women are well known, yet they all made extraordinary contributions to the sciences and medical treatments, helping shape the postwar world. Dame Honor Fell led the laboratory that developed the techniques that led to IVF; Dorothy Hodgkin worked out the structure of penicillin; Muriel Robertson helped reduce the impact of sleeping sickness; Agnes Arbor and Sidnie Manton were recognised naturalists. All battled prejudice and hardship, their journeys involving travel, political persecution and exhausting hours in areas traditionally dominated by men. Their achievements made cracks in the glass ceiling, making it easier for later generations of young women to enjoy careers in science. This book pays tribute to their achievements, and considers why many have slipped from our memories.

Brilliant, bold and beautifully articulated Karl J. Friston, Professor of Neuroscience, University College LondonNeuroscientist Nikolay Kukushkin reveals the miracle by which consciousness evolved out of the natural world, from the birth of the cell to the majesty of our modern minds.Science says that you are nothing but a chemical reaction a collection of atoms and molecules like rocks, paperclips and everything else in the physical universe. But if thats so, where is the place in this world for your consciousness? In a word, why does it feel so special to be you?Like the Zen Buddhist riddle pondering the imponderable the sound of a single hand clapping this book asks the seemingly unanswerable question of how the human mind came to exist within the material world. In search of an answer, neuroscientist Nikolay Kukushkin takes readers on a billion-year journey through time from the roots of our existence to the advent of Homo sapiens, reimagining the story of our evolution. The result is an exhilarating book that embeds our consciousness within a single, unified story of life on Earth.A work of ambitious intellectual scope, One Hand Clapping is distinguished as much by its originality as by the breadth of its imaginative reach drawing from neuroscience, evolution, philosophy and a rich tapestry of cultural references, all brought to life by the authors own illustrations. Told with the drama and daring of a mythical epic, it reaches deep into our oceanic past to show for the first time how the entire course of Earths history, from the earliest non-living particles, ultimately led to the formation of our own minds.
