Synopsis of Mission to Abisko
En mayo de 1997, el aclamado autor científico John Casti llevó a una docena de talentosos escritores a un remoto pueblo sueco llamado Abisko, muy por encima del Círculo Polar Ártico, para discutir la naturaleza de la verdad científica. Sus discusiones y debates se centraron en una pregunta principal: ¿Cómo afectan las historias que los científicos se cuentan entre sí y al público a la forma en que hacen su ciencia? Este libro es el resultado de esa animada reunión de mentes. Cada capítulo está escrito por un científico destacado que escribe, o un escritor de ciencia ficción que practica la ciencia, y el elenco incluye a John Barrow, Greg Bear, Ian Stewart, Gregory Benford, Larry Niven y el propio John Casti. En esta fascinante mirada detrás de las escenas de la ciencia, once de los mejores autores científicos del mundo examinan el fenómeno de la ciencia como narración de cuentos.
