Story
Both pseudoscience and science fiction (SF) are creative endeavors that have little in common with academic science, beyond the superficial trappings of jargon and subject matter. The most obvious difference between the two is that pseudoscience is presented as fact, not fiction. This engaging and well-researched audiobook explores a wide range of intriguing similarities and differences between pseudoscience and the fictional science found in SF.

Story
Sports is a religion. No, really. From pilgrimages and cathedrals, gods and fallen angels, holy wars and holy ghosts, organized sports has every aspect of an organized faith. In fact, it might be even better: all it takes to believe is to stand and cheer. Nobody knows this better than the preeminent sports documentarian Gotham Chopra, who just so happens to be the son of world-renowned spiritualist Deepak Chopra. While his father taught him to find faith through prayer, Gotham felt pulled towards the Boston Garden and Larry Bird instead.

Story
Pendant près de trois millénaires, les Pharaons ont régné sur l'Égypte antique sans que le caractère divin et absolu de leur pouvoir n'ait été remis en cause. Jean Winand, égyptologue et professeur à l'université de Liège, étudie l'idéologie dont s'est revêtu le pouvoir pharaonique afin d'assurer sa pérennité. À travers les histoires hautes en couleur des légendaires Sésostris, Thoutmôsis, Akhenaton ou Ramsès, il nous montre que Pharaon, fils de Rê, apparaît sur terre tel un envoyé des dieux.

Story
In his sequel to Ignorance (Oxford University Press, 2012), Stuart Firestein shows us that the scientific enterprise is riddled with mistakes and errors - and that this is a good thing! Failure: Why Science Is So Successful delves into the origins of scientific research as a process that relies upon trial and error, one which inevitably results in a hefty dose of failure. In fact, scientists throughout history have relied on failure to guide their research, viewing mistakes as a necessary part of the process.

Story
Siroccos, Santa Anas, chinooks, monsoons...the wind has as many names as moods. Few other forces have so universally shaped the lands and waters of the earth, the plants and animals, the patterns of exploration, settlement, and civilization. Few other phenomena have exerted such a profound influence on the history and psyche of humankind. Wind touches all of us every day of our lives, yet remarkably little has been written about it except as a component of the weather.

In Goethes Weltanschauung fasste Steiner die Ergebnisse seiner von 1883 bis 1897 sich erstreckenden Studien über Wesen und Bedeutung der naturwissenschaftlichen Schriften Goethes in einer bündigen und zugänglichen Weise zusammen. Steiner sah in Goethe einen wichtigen Vordenker, der in seiner Morphologie als erster eine dem Organischen angemessene Wissenschaftsmethode und damit die theoretischen Grundlagen seiner eigenen Anthroposophie entwickelt hatte.

Story
Was ist Fakt, was ist Fiktion? Ein Fakt ist eine wissenschaftlich überprüfbare Tatsache. Eine Meinung hingegen ist das Ergebnis persönlicher Überzeugungen und Ansichten. Aber welche Rolle spielen dann subjektive Deutungen in der Wissenschaft? Und wann wird aus einer Einzelmeinung wissenschaftlicher Konsens? Neurowissenschaftler und Bestsellerautor Jens Foell widmet sich in seinem neuen Buch dem Spannungsfeld von Fakten und Fiktionen in der Naturwissenschaft: Er folgt dem Gang wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis in Psychologie, Physik, Chemie und Medizin von der Beobachtung über die Hypothesenbildung bis zur Kommunikation.

El progreso no es un destino predeterminado, sino que depende de las elecciones que hagamos sobre la tecnología. Esta reflexión resulta muy pertinente en un mundo donde los avances digitales y la robótica amenazan a nuestros empleos y a nuestras democracias a través de la automatización excesiva, la recopilación masiva de datos y la vigilancia intrusiva.

Margot Rot nos invita a reflexionar sobre la relación que hay entre las experiencias emocionales a través de las pantallas y la creación de nuestras identidades. ¿Qué son nuestras emociones sino la expresión múltiple de aquello que deseamos, o de aquello que no deseamos? ¿Qué es el deseo sino el ímpetu a través del cual se erige una identidad? La virtualidad ha modificado nuestro modo de percibir el tiempo y el espacio y, por ende, nuestro modo de percibir la realidad.

Conseguir una IA ética también es responsabilidad tuya La inteligencia artificial ha dejado de ser un argumento inquietante de las películas de ciencia ficción para convertirse en una cuestión tan real como urgente. Su evolución y los inevitables debates éticos que acarrea nos incumben a todos, pero suele delegarse esta responsabilidad en los propios directivos de las empresas tecnológicas, a menudo coaligados con quienes tienen intereses económicos. Abrumados por un mundo que no terminamos de entender y que intuimos atractivo y peligroso, miramos hacia otro lado.
