Questo libro è un ponte. Unisce il passato, quello di tutti, e il futuro, quello di ciascuno. In un mondo incerto e competitivo, spazzato da venti di guerra, crisi politiche ed emergenze, spesso l'avvenire fa paura, ma c'è un modo preciso per non lasciarsene sopraffare: progettarlo, giorno per giorno, seguendo dieci semplici mosse. Le dieci mosse suggerite da Farinetti sono passi di una costruzione che non si improvvisa e che non si compie da soli: occorre un'intelligenza collettiva che può nascere solo da una profonda cultura condivisa.

Non c'è donna che non si sia mai sentita rivolgere parole come queste. Parole a cui ci si abitua, tanto sono consuete. La violenza che contengono non ci stupisce, al massimo produce un groppo alla gola a cui non si riesce a dare spiegazione. E più queste parole diventano normali, più si rischia di adottare lo stesso sguardo misogino sul mondo. Del resto, questo linguaggio non appartiene solo alla nostra quotidianità - il mondo reale e i social media - ma permea anche le pagine dei giornali, i salotti televisivi, i comizi dei politici.

Anthropologist Michael Jackson predicates his intellectual autobiography, Worlds Within and Worlds Without, on the view that works and lives are intimately entangled.

A compelling account of the four-thousand-year history of a people that spans the globe and transcends the ages. From the ancient and simple faith of a small tribe to a global religion with adherents in every nation, the path of the Jews is traced through countless expulsions and migrations, the great tragedy of the Holocaust, and the joy of founding a homeland in Israel. Putting the struggle of a persecuted people into perspective, Max Dimont asks whether the tragic sufferings of the Jews have actually been the key to their survival, as other nations and races vanished into obscurity.

In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. Lead researcher Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid.

Als Prometheus, dem Mythos zufolge, das Feuer auf die Erde brachte, kam ein weiterer entscheidender Input hinzu. Seit Hunderttausenden Jahren wird es genutzt, um Nahrung zu garen und Werkzeuge zu härten. In diesem Sinne lässt sich sagen: Alle Geschichte bedeutet die Geschichte von Applikationen des Feuers.

Over the next four years, Koff’s grueling investigations took her across geography synonymous with some of the worst crimes of the twentieth century.

Alles passiert irgendwann zum ersten Mal. Oft ist dieses erste Mal eine mutige Idee, manchmal aber auch ein schräger Zufall oder das Ergebnis jahrelanger Forschung. Sicher ist, ohne diesen einen Moment sähe unser Alltag heute völlig anders aus. Wir würden zum Beispiel anders frühstücken, andere Musik hören oder anders verhüten. Wir hätten wahrscheinlich keine Impfstoffe und weniger Urlaubstage, unsere Drucker würden nicht funktionieren, das Essen würde anders schmecken – von all den medizinischen Entwicklungen ganz zu schweigen.
