Overview

Un libro deslumbrante que permite vivir la apasionante aventura de la  inteligencia humana, desde los orígenes hasta los grandes desafíos que plantea el futuro.

«En este libro he pretendido contar la historia de nuestra inteligencia,  que no es una realidad estática como la calcopirita, sino una creación evolutiva o, más aún, una autocreación evolutiva.

La inteligencia humana se crea a sí misma. Ésta es la fantástica  aventura que he querido contar en los dos formatos que nos han  acompañado desde que nuestra especie comenzó a decorar las cuevas: el  lingüístico y el visual. Decía el gran poeta Paul Valéry que las tres grandes creaciones de la inteligencia humana son la poesía, las  matemáticas y el dibujo.

Yo estoy de acuerdo, aunque añadiría alguna más. Siempre me ha fascinado la capacidad que tienen los mapas, los gráficos,  los planos, las caricaturas y las viñetas para abstraer e integrar. Un  buen dibujo puede sintetizar un argumento complejo. Tan poderosa es la  intuición visual que decimos "Ahora lo veo" para indicar que hemos comprendido algo. La palabra analiza, el dibujo concentra. Si Marcus Carús y yo lo hemos hecho bien, este libro debería parecerse a  unos fuegos artificiales.

Una imagen puede estallar en una bella dispersión de significados. Disfruten de la experiencia.»- José Antonio Marina

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A dazzling book that allows you to live the exciting adventure of human intelligence, from its origins to the great challenges that the future can offer.
 
“In this book I have tried to tell the story of our intelligence, which is not a static reality, but rather an evolutionary creation or, even more, an evolutionary self-creation.
 
Human intelligence creates itself. This is the fascinating adventure that I have wanted to tell in the two formats that we have been using since our species began writing on cave walls: linguistic and visual. The great poet Paul Valéry said that the three great creations of human intelligence are poetry, mathematics, and drawing.
 
I agree, although I would add some other ones. I have always been fascinated by the ability that maps, charts, blueprints, cartoons, and comic strips have in adding and subtracting from a narrative. A good drawing can easily synthesize a complex argument. Our visual intuition is so powerful that we say "Now I see" to indicate that we have understood something. Words analyze and drawings bring it all together. If Marcus Carús and I have done things well, this book should resemble fireworks.”
