Sobre IBD

I am overwhelmed by the beauty and truth of this epic poem. Brian D. Farrell, Ph.D. Professor of Biology, Harvard University This poem, 'Who Are We,' carries with it a remarkably clear insight not only into modern cosmology, but also the basic physics underlying modern cosmology. I read into the night because I couldn't put it down. How did we get here, what are we, and where are we going is a wonderful read. R. Norris Keeler, Ph.D. Editorial Board, Journal of Cosmology The topic of Who Are We is the fundamental question we all think about when we step into philosophy or poetry, and this poem captures the subject the way it appears to me. It's a kind of poetry that is not seen every day on our present poetry landscape, but it's good poetry, real poetry, with something to say and it can be understood. This book deserves attention. Hon. Evelyn Keyes, Ph.D. Associate Justice, First Court of Appeals, Texas 3
