Hemos complicado demasiado el estudio del Pasado, dando mayor importancia a puntos de vista, intereses nacionalistas, religiosos y morales, que colocan el hecho histórico en segundo lugar, subordinado al interes del sistema que pretende educarnos. Llego la hora de simplificar y demostrar respeto hacia nuestros ancestrales, esforzandonos en conocer lo que realmente sucedio en el pasado, y no apenas aquello que el sistema pretende informarnos. Despues de tantos años estudiando Historia, llegue a la conclusion de que la mejor forma de conocer el pasado es a traves de una Cronologia imparcial, objetiva, que se limite a colocar cada acontecimiento en su exacto lugar en el tiempo, revelando la Historia sin manipulaciones ni medias verdades. Esta Cronologia constituye un completo material de consulta, no apenas con hechos puramente politicos, como fundacion de ciudades, nacimiento de reinos e imperios, descubrimientos cientificos y geograficos, desastres naturales y epidemias, sino tambien conteniendo informaciones sobre los mas diferentes campos de la actividad humana: quimica, astronomia, geografia, matematicas, etc. De forma paralela, la obra es complementada por datos que no pertenecen a una fecha determinada, sino a toda una epoca, son generalidades de cada sociedad, curiosidades, costumbres, la religion de cada civilizacion, inventos sin fecha exacta, etc. El resultado de todo este conjunto es una de las mas completas cronologias existentes, periodicamente actualizada con los ultimos descubrimientos arqueologicos y cientificos. Una obra de esta magnitud no podria ser publicada en un unico libro, por eso la he dividido en varias colecciones, y los originales en español estan siendo traducidos para frances, ingles, aleman, italiano y portugues. La cronologia transcurre año a año, dentro de lo posible, desde la prehistoria hasta la actualidad. Para aquellos que prefieren un estudio mas profundo y detallado, he preparado una segunda cronologia, dia a dia, que abarca desde 1789 hasta 1946, dividida en cuatro colecciones.

Dazzling photographs and images from space of our planets nightlights have captivated public attention for decades. In such images, patterns are immediately seen based on the presence or absence of light: a distinct coastline, bodies of water recognizable by their dark silhouettes, and the faint tendrils of roads and highways emanating from the brilliant blobs of light that are our modern, well-lit cities. For nearly 25 years, satellite images of Earth at night have served as a fundamental research tool, while also stoking public curiosity. These images paint an expansive and revealing picture, showing how humans have illuminated and shaped the planet in profound ways since the invention of the light bulb 140 years ago.

In "Earthquakes and Other Earth Movements," John Milne presents a comprehensive exploration of seismic phenomena, blending meticulous scientific analysis with a compelling narrative style. Milne, often hailed as the father of modern seismology, delves into not only the mechanics of earthquakes but also their geological implications and effects on human society. The book is characterized by its meticulous attention to empirical data, interspersed with illuminating anecdotes that contextualize the scientific content within the broader framework of 19th-century understanding of earth sciences, laying the groundwork for future research in seismology. John Milnes profound knowledge stemmed from his extensive studies in geology, engineering, and the evolving field of seismology during a period of rapid scientific advancement. His personal experiences of living through multiple earthquakes fueled his desire to understand the underlying causes and propose a systematic approach to monitoring and mitigating their impacts.
