Sobre IBD

Wise, witty, and immensely readable, these short but thought-provoking discourses examine life, death, and everything in between: truth, adversity, love, superstition, health, ambition, fame, and many other timeless topics.Here Bacon effectively applied his scientific approach of observation and interpretation to human behavior.
