La situation n'est pas désespérée. La solution est en nous. Ça y est, nous avons dépassé le stade critique. Le dernier rapport du GIEC atteste que la vie sur terre deviendra à terme insoutenable. La cause : le réchauffement climatique que nous avons-nous-mêmes enclenché. Nous savons que nous sommes en perdition et nous ne réagissons pas. Pourquoi ?

De l'autre il y a le cortex préfrontal, organe destiné à contrôler nos pulsions.

A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson’s quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us. His challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science.

In this coruscating work, acclaimed historian Stefanos Geroulanos demonstrates how claims about the earliest humans not only shaped Western intellectual culture, but gave rise to our modern world.
