Synopsis of Numbers Don't Lie: 71 Stories to Help Us Understand the Modern World
En este libro, Vaclav Smil responde a preguntas como: ¿Qué es peor para el medio ambiente, tu coche o tu teléfono? ¿Cuánto pesan las vacas del mundo (y por qué importa)? ¿Y qué hace feliz a la gente? Desde datos sobre nuestras sociedades y poblaciones, pasando por medidas de los combustibles y alimentos que las energizan, hasta el impacto del transporte y los inventos de nuestro mundo moderno, y cómo todo esto afecta al planeta, Vaclav Smil nos lleva a una aventura de búsqueda de hechos, utilizando estadísticas sorprendentes y gráficos esclarecedores para desafiar el pensamiento convencional.
