A Very Weird KidRicardo AlcántaraAlbert Asensio

Hardcover26,5 x 26,5 cm36 pagesAge: 5+

A beautiful picture about how parents are the self-esteem pillar of their kids

Pol is a “very weird” kid. This is what his classmate, Gustavo, thinks about him. He always tries to provoke him, but Pol always stays calm. “My dad is a magician,” he says. One day, in one of his ill-intentioned comments towards Pol, Gustavo succeeds in hurting his feelings, and Pol runs away crying. Then, Gustavo and his friends follow Pol to his house to discover what kind of magician his father is...Parents can teach you to respect others, to be assertive or to like yourself. That is the magic of Pol’s dad, understanding his son and giving him the positive reinforcement he needs. The illustrations provide great sensitivity and in-depht look at the story.

Ricardo Alcántara was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, but lives in Barcelona. He studied psychology in Brazil, and during his time in college, he realized he wanted his career to take another path. A newspaper advertisement about a children’s literature contest led him the way. That would be the start of a prolific and awarded career as a writer.

useo del Juguete de Cataluña/Figueres

fue un poeta y dramaturgo andaluz que también

experimentó en otras expresiones artísticas. Desde que conoció a Dalí, entre

ambos surgió una gran amistad y pasión y se convirtieron en inseparables, pese

a ser dos personas muy diferentes. Esta amistad llevó a Lorca a pasar temporadas

con él tanto en Figueres como en Cadaqués y Barcelona. Con los años, y con

algún que otro desacuerdo debido a sus diferentes sensibilidades artísticas, la

relación se enfrío y los amigos se distanciaron. Lorca murió asesinado el año 1936

en Granada, al inicio de la Guerra Civil, por su ideología política y su relación

con la II República.

es un juguete precioso cargado de historia,

poesía, ternura y magia. Fue elaborado por la empresa alemana Steiff a inicios

del siglo pasado y tuvo tanto éxito que se distribuyó por toda Europa y América.

En 1910, en un viaje a París, el notario figuerense Salvador Dalí y su esposa Felipa

Domènech lo compraron para su hija Anna Maria, que entonces tenía dos años.

Don Osito parecía destinado al olvido hasta que, a finales de los años ochenta,

Anna Maria lo encontró en un viejo baúl en Cadaqués y lo donó al Museo

del Juguete de Cataluña en Figueres, donde hoy es una de las piezas más queridas

y fotografiadas por los visitantes.

Hardcover 26,5 x 30,5 cm

Don Osito is a beautiful teddy bear is plein of history, poetry, tenderness and magic. He was born in a German factory and there it stayed until it was taken to a shop in Paris. One day the parents of Anna Maria and Salvador Dalí bought it and it became the siblings’ inseparable playmate. Years later Salvador Dalí invited a new friend of him, Federico García Lorca, to spend a couple of days in the Empordà. Was back then when Anna Maria and Lorca became great friends and they started exchanging letters in which he never forgot asking about the teddy bear and its family, and he named it Don Osito.

He combines his teacher work with writing, curating and he carries out occasional collaborations in several media. However, if there is a facet that stands out is that he is a Tintin expert. Prove of that is the books he has written about the young Belgium journalist: Abecedari de Tintin and Univers Hergé.

Don Osito, a witnes of the life of Dalí’s family and Federico García Lorca.

Don Osito

Hace casi cien años, Federico García Lorca visitó Figueres y Cadaqués invitado por su amigo Salvador Dalí. Allí entabló amistad con la hermana del pintor, Anna Maria Dalí, quien enseñó al poeta Federico un osito de trapo que conservaba de su infancia. imagina las memorias de Don Osito, que evoca unos años mágicos donde tuvo la oportunidad de vivir de cerca las emociones y

Mi infancia son recuerdos de un taller de juguetes.

Allí nací yo, junto a otros ositos, y vi por primera vez la luz

cuando un alegre muchacho me cosió estos ojos negros y bri-

llantes que me permitieron descubrir la belleza de las cosas.

Recuerdo sus risas, su cariño, la ternura con la que me cuidaron.

Hoy me han depositado en una caja con destino desconocido

y un hombre risueño me ha mirado; con un poco de envidia, me

ha dicho: «Tienes suerte, osito, tú sí que vas a ver mundo».

A fascinating introduction to our brain mysteries by the hand of the greatest neuroscientist!

Pablo Barrecheguren He studied Biochemistry and has a master’s degree in Neuroscience from the University of Barcelona and received a doctorate in Biomedicine after winning an important Spanish scholarship. Since 2015 he has been working as a scientific disseminator and he won national funding from the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT) for two audiovisual projects of scientific dissemination on neuroscience: Neurocosas (2017) and Neuropíldoras (2018). He is the co-author of five popular science books.

Discover how the human brain works with the help of Nobel Prize and neuroscientist Dr Santiago Ramón y Cajal! There are so many cells in your brain that it would take millennia to count them all, and each one is full of mysteries.We have millions of neurons that constantly send information while other cells, secret and unknown, cooperate with them and protect them from the shadows ...And all so that thanks to your brain you can breathe, think, feel, dance and even doing more incredible things like seeing music in colour for some people!

Lo que tienes que saber sobre el cerebro/encéfalo es que funciona

como un piso…,un piso con distintas habitaciones en el que cada

una tiene su función. Así como, por ejemplo, cuando vamos a cocinar solo encendemos las luces de la cocina…, pues de igual modo funciona tu cerebro, con distintas partes con

distintas funciones que solo encendemos si las necesitamos para lo que estamos haciendo…

y hay veces, eso sí, que si estamos haciendo algo complicado se requiere la participación de varias

áreas cerebrales.

Ahora, acompáñame. Vamos a visitar algunas de las

habitaciones más sofisticadas que hay en la mansión cerebral donde viven

tus neuronas…

En nuestro cuerpo el cerebro no está solo, trabaja con...SISTEMA NERVIOSO

Y GANGLIOSNERVIOSOS

CEREBRO/ENCÉFALO

MÉDULA ESPINAL

NERVIOS

EL SISTEMA NERVIOSO CENTRALToda la información del sistema periférico pasa por la médula espinal, que está dentro de la columna vertebral. La médula espinal lleva información desde el resto del cuerpo al cerebro y viceversa, pero como el cerebro está bastante lejos de algunas partes del cuerpo la comunicación puede tardar un poco, ¡y a veces hay que actuar superrápido! Así que la médula espinal se encarga de hacer los movimientos reflejos, esos gestos rapidísimos que realizamos automáticamente a veces, como, por ejemplo, apartar la mano a toda velocidad cuando te estás quemando.

Dejando la médula espinal aparte, el resto del sistema nervioso central está formado por el encéfalo…, que como recordaréis es lo que normalmente se conoce como cerebro, aunque no sea del todo exacto, pero bueno, ¡nos entendemos!

EL SISTEMA NERVIOSO PERIFÉRICOPor todo nuestro cuerpo tenemos nervios que constantemente le envían información al cerebro o transmiten sus órdenes a los órganos, músculos, tendones… y, además, en muchos lugares tenemos pequeñas acumulaciones de neuronas, llamadas ganglios nerviosos, que son como puestos de neuroavanzada con una cierta autonomía para controlar algunos procesos básicos a nivel local. Aunque al final siempre necesitamos un cerebro que lo regule todo, el cual es parte de…

ASí QUE RECUERDA: ENCÉFALO + MÉDULA ESPINAL = Sistema Nervioso Central

ES QUE ESTOS DEL PREMIO NOBEL LO DE DAR PREMIOS… MUCHAS VECES SE LO TOMAN CON LA CALMA.

QUE HABÍAN PUBLICADO UNOS TREINTA AÑOS ANTES.

TIENEN MUCHAS FUNCIONES, PERO EN EL FONDO SON UNA FORMA DE COMUNICACIÓN QUÍMICA ENTRE LAS CÉLULAS SIN LA CUAL

NO PODRÍAMOS CRECER Y VIVIR.

¡ATENCIÓN A TODAS LAS CÉLULAS!AHORA INDICARÉ EL FUTURO PUESTO

DE CADA UNA...

FACTOR DECRECIMIENTO

EL DESCUBRIMIENTO DE RITA FUE PIONERO EN EL CAMPO DE LOS FACTORES DE CRECIMIENTO Y POR ESO LE DIERON EL PREMIO NOBEL. PERO MÁS ALLÁ DE PREMIOS, LO QUE MÁS ME GUSTA DE RITA ES QUE FUE UNA CIENTÍFICA QUE SIGUIÓ INVESTIGANDO HASTA SU MUERTE, ¡Y MURIÓ EN EL 2012 EN ROMA CON 103 AÑOS !

FUNDÓ EL INSTITUTO EUROPEO DE INVESTIGACIÓN DEL CEREBRO...,

Y ADEMÁS NO SOLO INTENTÓ AYUDAR A LA SOCIEDAD CON SUS INVESTIGACIONES :

... CREÓ LA FUNDACIÓN LEVI-MONTALCINI PARA AYUDAR A JÓVENES AFRICANAS EN

SU EDUCACIÓN CIENTÍFICA...

... Y TAMBIÉN FUE EMBAJADORA DE LAS NACIONES UNIDAS.

¡ES TODO UN EJEMPLO A SEGUIR COMO CIENTÍFICA COMPROMETIDA

EN AYUDAR A LOS DEMÁS!

FUE UNA SUPERCIENTÍFICA

UAU

CLAPCLAP

CLAP

AUNQUE LA CIENCIA ES COMO UN DEPORTE DE EQUIPO DONDE TODAS LAS INVESTIGACIONES AYUDAN AL TRABAJO DE LOS DEMÁS, LA VERDAD ES QUE HAY ALGUNAS PERSONAS QUE HACEN TRABAJOS TAN IMPORTANTES QUE MERECEN UN LUGAR ESPECIAL EN LA HISTORIA DE LA CIENCIA.

RITA NACIÓ EN 1909 Y CUANDO ERA JOVEN TUVO MUCHAS DIFICULTADES PARA ESTUDIAR EN LA UNIVERSIDAD, TANTO

POR SER MUJER COMO POR SER DE FAMILIA JUDÍA (EN ESA ÉPOCA EN ITALIA LOS JUDÍOS ERAN PERSEGUIDOS

POR LA DICTADURA DE BENITO MUSSOLINI), ASÍ QUE ACABÓ CREANDO UN LABORATORIO EN SU PROPIO DORMITORIO. Y ALLÍ ESTUDIABA CÓMO SE FORMAN LOS POLLITOS DENTRO DE LOS HUEVOS DE GALLINA

PARA ENTENDER CÓMO SE FORMAN LOS SERES VIVOS.

AÑOS DESPUÉS DE LA SEGUNDA GUERRA MUNDIAL EMIGRÓ A ESTADOS UNIDOS, DONDE TRABAJÓ COMO INVESTIGADORA DURANTE DÉCADAS Y SE CONVIRTIÓ EN LA CUARTA MUJER EN RECIBIR EL PREMIO NOBEL DE MEDICINA .

HOY OS VOY A HABLAR DE LA NEUROCIENTÍFICA MÁS IMPORTANTE QUE HA EXISTIDO HASTA EL MOMENTO:

¡LA SUPERNEUROCIENTÍFICA!

LÓBULOS CEREBRALES

Hipocampo Hippocampus

LÓBULO FRONTAL: esta es quizás el área que más nos hace ser humanos: aquí está nuestra capacidad de evaluar situaciones para tomar decisiones, nuestra empatía, atención…, es importante en la recuperación de memorias y tiene un área esencial para el lenguaje: el área de Broca.

LÓBULO TEMPORAL: esta zona destaca en el procesamiento y almacenamiento de la memoria. En él se encuentra una área muy importante: el hipocampo (esencial en la memoria espacial, que sirve para recordar dónde están las cosas). Su nombre se debe a que su forma recuerda a un caballito de mar, cuyo nombre científico es Hippocampus. Además, parte de la información auditiva también pasa por el lóbulo temporal.

LÓBULO OCCIPITAL: es el más pequeño de los cuatro lóbulos, pero aquí

está nuestro procesamiento de la información visual.

Reconocer colores, caras, letras o números..., todo lo

que ven tus ojos necesita ser procesado por esta área antes

de que tú puedas verlo.

LÓBULO PARIETAL: aparte de gestionar la información de nuestros sentidos, aquí tenemos un ejemplo de cómo muchas funciones se reparten por varias zonas del cerebro, ya que en este lóbulo está el área de Wernicke, la cual, al igual que el área de Broca, es esencial en el lenguaje.

CÓMO FABRICAR UN CÓRTEXEs la parte más grande de nuestro cerebro, ya que, aunque la mayoría

de nuestras neuronas están en el cerebelo, el córtex (también

llamado corteza cerebral)

es el 80-85 % del volumen cerebral.

El proceso de fabricación tiene dos reglas:

Se cree que uno de los motivos por los cuales se producen estos

pliegues es porque ayudan a reducir el espacio que ocupan las capas

celulares. Para que veas bien cómo funciona este neurotruco, vamos a hacer el ejercicio con un solo folio:

2. En algunos animales estas capas están dobladas formando surcos.

Son esos surcos que le dan aspecto de nuez al cerebro humano, que tiene uno de los córtex más plegados que hay.

1. La corteza cerebral de los mamíferos, entre los cuales estamos los humanos,

está formada por seis capas principales de neuronas puestas una encima de

otra. Son un poco como folios de papel colocados uno sobre otro.

PUES SI PUDIÉRAmOS HACER ESTO CON SEIS fOLIOS A LA vEz yA TENDRÍAmOS UN CACHITO DE CóRTEX LISTO PARA

PONERSE A PENSAR.

TIENES qUE DOBLARLO A LO CIENTÍfICO, ES DECIR, ORDENADAmENTE: vE PLEGáNDOLO

POqUITO A POCO DESDE UN LADO HASTA CREAR UNA ESPECIE DE ACORDEóN DE PAPEL.

mart e era el nombre del dios romano de la guerra. A veces se le llama el planeta rojo, por la presencia de óxido de hierro. Su superficie tiene unas montañas enormes, más altas que el Everest, así como cañones y valles inmensos, y casquetes polares. Las naves que hemos enviado a su superficie han encontrado indicios de agua, y se cree que tal vez hace millones de años tuviera vida. En la actualidad está habitado… por robots, fabricados por nosotros. Hay unos cuantos sobrevolando Marte, y otros, verdaderos laboratorios con ruedas, avanzando por su superficie.Tiene dos satélites: Fobos y Deimos, que significan miedo y terror, que es lo quela guerra provoca.

v en u s era el nombre de la diosa

romana del amor y la belleza. Pero a pesar de su nombre tampoco es un sitio agradable para vivir: hace

muchísimo calor, hay vientos huracanados y la atmósfera tiene ácido sulfúrico. Venus se ve muy bien cuando hay poca luz solar, al amanecer y al anochecer, y por eso se le llama también el «lucero del alba» y la

«estrella del atardecer». Sin embargo, no es una estrella; no tiene luz

propia sino que refleja la luz del Sol.

Sería horrible vivir en Mercurio: ¡te asarías

o te congelarías!

m e r c u r i o es el planeta más cercano al Sol y el más pequeño, tan solo un poco más grande que la Luna. Al estar tan cerca del Sol tarda poco en efectuar una órbita (en la mitología romana, Mercurio era el mensajero de los dioses, y se representaba con alas en los pies). El año de Mercurio dura solo 88 días terrestres. Sin embargo, gira muy lentamente: un día suyo dura 59 días terrestres. Por eso en la zona que da al Sol hace mucho calor (¡más de 400 ºC!), mientras que en el lado contrario, como no le da el Sol durante muchos días, hace mucho frío (menos de –180 ºC).

When we walk down the street we get the impression time is the same for everyone: for us, for the neighbour whose path we cross, for the inhabitants of Moscow or the rocks on Mars. However, more than a hundred years ago Albert Einstein realized that time does not unfold similarly everywhere and that is different depending on the speed at which we move. If we could travel almost at the speed of light, we would see that incredible things happen with space and time.

Start discovering the fascinating world of Relativity with the help of Dr. Albert, by the same authors as My first book of Quantum Physics. This is a perfect “first book” to explain seemingly complex issues such as dilation of time, contraction of lengths or increase in mass in a clear and simple way.
