Story4
The medieval Catholic Church, widely considered a source of intolerance and inquisitorial fervor, was not anti-science during the Dark Ages - in fact, the pope in the year 1000 was the leading mathematician and astronomer of his day. Called The Scientist Pope, Gerbert of Aurillac rose from peasant beginnings to lead the church. By turns a teacher, traitor, kingmaker, and visionary, Gerbert is the first Christian known to teach math using the nine Arabic numerals and zero.

Story0
Sin tener en cuenta la ética ni el bienestar de hombres y mujeres, la historia de la ciencia acumula experimentos transgresores, crueles y con consecuencias irreparables para quienes participaron en ellos. Gabriel León nos presenta investigaciones médicas como las esterilizaciones forzadas, los experimentos dermatológicos en cárceles, la separación al nacer de gemelos idénticos y un largo y horroroso etcétera narrado con la claridad, potencia y los fundamentos que lo han convertido en uno de los autores best sellers de la divulgación científica en Chile.
