THE LATEST BOOK

I'm Neil deGrasse Tyson, an astrophysicist and servant of those who are insatiably curious. My latest book "Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization" contains the deepest ideas and thoughts that I've ever put to page. But maybe that's for you to decide. The book offers a view "from above" that is unapologetically scientifically literate while addressing topics such as mind & body, conflict & resolution, law & order, gender & identity, color & race, life & death. Often, the most divisive issues in society simply evaporate when you see them embedded in a larger world-view. Starry Messenger is an offering to civilization, to help it find the guide star it lost long ago.

BRIEF BIOGRAPHY

Neil deGrasse Tyson was born in New York City the same week NASA was founded. His interest in the universe traces back to age 9, after a first visit to the Hayden Planetarium of the American Museum of Natural History. He was educated in the public schools of New York City through his graduation from the Bronx High School of Science. And after an BA in Physics from Harvard and a PhD in Astrophysics from Columbia and a Postdoctoral research fellowship at Princeton, Tyson became the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium, where he has served since 1996.

Éste libro se lee muy fácilmente y es para iniciados. Encima está tirado de precio, así que si tienes interés en éstos temas, es un must.
Eso sí, me llegó bastante doblado... Alguien en el warehouse no tuvo nada de cuidado al meterlo en la caja 😕

3.0 out of 5 stars Está bien, pero mala traducción
Reviewed in Spain on October 14, 2023

Soy seguidor de Neil deGrasse Tyson, me encanta su manera de explicar. El libro sigue su estilo y tiene cosas que le has oído si sigues su podcast, el problema que le veo (tal vez por el planteamiento de hacer algo rápido) es que desde el principio explica cosas algo complejas, empleando términos de la disciplina, pero sin explicar esos términos que usa, lo cual hace que sea fácil leer varias páginas sin entender muchas cosas (al menos si no tienes mucho conocimiento). Es como si en un libro de divulgación culinaria el chef diera por sentado que sabes que es mirepoix, demi glace o brunoise, y lo incluyera en sus explicaciones iniciales sin más aclaración. Es el gran pero que le veo.
Por lo demás, aprendes muchas cosas y te quedas con ganas de más (que posiblemente sea el objetivo de un libro como este).
Lo que es un punto negro es la traducción. Me ha parecido torpe a ratos, imprecisa otros ratos y sencillamente fallida por momentos. Creo que la editorial debería controlar esto. Sigo al autor en inglés, donde su mezcla de gran conocimiento y lenguaje fresco y popular es increíble. Cogí la traducción por curiosidad, y me arrepiento de no haber comprado el original.

Si entiendes inglés, compra el original.
