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.

Have Not Charity is a fascinating and profound investigation into deep and important concepts which have become obscure in modern times: sin and virtue. Alexandr Korol examines what motivates people in their actions, how goals and behaviours align, and how these are all affected both for good and ill both by virtue and by sin. He seeks to show that many ‘good’ deeds are in fact motivated by sin. This is a true modern work of ethics, in the classical sense, a guide for a better life.

The Pornification of Everything. How Lust Took Over Culture. Lust was once considered dangerous. It required restraint. It demanded discipline. It belonged to the private world of intimacy. Modern culture did not eliminate lust. It normalized it. Scaled it. Monetized it. Today, sexuality is no longer confined to relationships. It is embedded in advertising, entertainment, identity, and economics. It shapes how people see themselves, how they relate to others, and how they define value. What was once taboo is now strategy. What was once private is now performance.
