Anni fa, sulle rive del lago Bajkal, in Siberia, una donna mi lesse la mano. E un paio di anni dopo un bramino della città sacra di Vrindavan, in India, guardò nel mio futuro. Entrambi mi raccontarono delle stesse gioie che mi avrebbe riservato la vita. E della morte. Prematura e violenta. Che dovrebbe cogliermi tra poco.Alcune tra le cose predette si sono avverate. Altre non saprei. Le parole si sono perse nel tempo insieme alle cose a cui non do importanza. Ma con l’avvicinarsi di quell’appuntamento mi sono ritrovato a concentrarmi su un errore della divinazione.

What if meaning wasn’t missing—but misassigned? The Silence That Spoke in Symbols is not a sequel, but a continuation. It picks up not where the story ends, but where language itself collapses. Following the quiet tremors left by The Shatter That Called Itself an Unraveling, A.J. Salara returns with a haunting meditation on language, symbolism, and the illusions we call sacred. This is not a book about healing, resolution, or narrative redemption. It does not tell you who you are, or how to reclaim what you lost. Instead, it sits beside you while the scaffolding of self slips away.

En este libro, el Premio Nacional de Ciencias, Humberto Maturana, nos llevará por un viaje hacia las maneras como se conectan la razón y lo que llamamos realidad, y cómo esto determina, muchas veces, nuestro modo de convivir. Este libro nos invita a reflexionar sobre la aceptación y rechazo del otro, las emociones, la forma como vivimos en el lenguaje, y cómo el observar es el punto de partida para entender que la realidad y la razón son usados como argumentos relacionales del dominio de nuestro convivir humano.

But it also reveals how the twin scourges of declining scientific literacy and eroding trust in institutions have created space for armies of pseudoscientists to step into the minds of an increasingly credulous public.

Es más fácil decirlo en negativo: la divulgación de la ciencia no es una forma diluida o rebajada de la ciencia. Desde luego se apoya en el conocimiento que producen los científicos, los métodos que emplean y las preguntas que hacen, pero no es un acto condescendiente para que alguien medio burro reciba un barniz de sabiduría. Para Sergio de Régules, la buena divulgación escrita es, sobre todo, literatura: vivaz, seductora, convincente.

Blood carries life, yet the sight of it makes people faint. It is a waste product and a commodity pricier than oil. It can save lives and transmit deadly infections. Each one of us has roughly nine pints of it, yet many don’t even know their own blood type. And for all its ubiquitousness, the few tablespoons of blood discharged by 800 million women are still regarded as taboo: menstruation is perhaps the single most demonized biological event.
