    The universe, vast and ever-expanding, has captivated human imagination for millennia. As our technology and understanding of space have advanced, we've discovered astonishing phenomena that challenge the very fabric of reality. Among the most perplexing aspects of this vast cosmos are the cosmic paradoxes, mysteries that defy conventional explanations and reveal the limits of our knowledge. One of the most profound paradoxes involves dark matter, an invisible substance that makes up the majority of the universe's mass yet remains undetectable by traditional means. 
    Cosmic paradoxes arise from the observation of phenomena that seem to contradict established scientific principles or challenge our understanding of the laws of physics. These paradoxes push the boundaries of human knowledge, sparking debate and investigation into the nature of the universe. Many of these paradoxes are linked to the enigmatic presence of dark matter and dark energy, two unseen forces that govern much of the universe's structure and behavior. While dark matter cannot be directly observed, its existence is inferred from its gravitational effects on visible matter, such as galaxies and galaxy clusters. This invisible mass influences the way galaxies rotate and how they move through space, providing key insights into the structure of the cosmos. 
    Understanding cosmic paradoxes requires grappling with the fundamental nature of the universe. These paradoxes often emerge from the tension between theory and observation. For example, the distribution of galaxies and the large-scale structure of the universe suggest that there is more mass present than what can be accounted for by visible matter alone. This discrepancy led scientists to propose the existence of dark matter, which has since become a cornerstone of modern astrophysics. However, the inability to detect dark matter directly leaves open the question of what it truly is and how it interacts with ordinary matter.

    Obscurantism in power When...

    Over the last ten years or so, it has become commonplace to hear talk of an obscurantist threat linked to a rise in irrationality, manifested mainly by a mistrust of vaccination and conventional medicine. But obscurantism can also be found where we pride ourselves on fighting it. In this case, it is no longer the work of marginal or anti-establishment groups, but of a dominant way of thinking that presents itself as that of science and rationality. 
    The aim of this book is to lift the veil on this obscurantism in power. Through numerous examples, from impeded research into unexplained phenomena such as near-death experiences, to the vast field of medicine where the pharmaceutical industry has cornered the market on proving the usefulness of a treatment, Brice Perrier reveals how reason is transformed into dogmatism and hinders the advancement of knowledge. 
    The aim of the book is not to say what is true or false, nor to settle scientific controversies, but to understand why these debates, which have always been legitimate and even necessary in science, may simply no longer be allowed.

    The Drowning Wave is an elegy for the human mind in the age of acceleration — a poetic reckoning with the systems we built, and the tides that now carry us. It explores the quiet violence of progress: how technology promised liberation but delivered dependency, how intelligence became automated, and how meaning dissolved into motion. Through haunting, reflective prose, the book contemplates the moral cost of convenience and the psychological surrender of a generation that trades awareness for ease. The Drowning Wave is not a warning, but a mirror — a meditation on what it means to remain human when the machines have already begun to dream without us.

    Salmonella is a genus of bacteria that plays a major role in human and animal health, causing a wide range of infections with varying degrees of severity. It is responsible for one of the most common foodborne illnesses worldwide, with millions of people affected each year. While many may associate Salmonella solely with food poisoning, it is much more complex, comprising over 2,500 serotypes, each with its own specific characteristics and virulence factors. 
    The discovery of Salmonella dates back to the late 19th century, when Theobald Smith, working under the guidance of American bacteriologist Daniel Elmer Salmon, first identified the bacterium. Since then, much has been learned about its biology, transmission, and impact on public health. Originally, the genus was named after Salmon, though today it is classified under the family Enterobacteriaceae, sharing common traits with other enteric bacteria. Despite the significant advances in understanding Salmonella, new challenges continue to emerge, particularly in the form of antibiotic resistance and emerging serotypes with more aggressive characteristics. 
    Salmonella infections are typically categorized into two main types: gastrointestinal infections and systemic infections. The most common manifestation is gastroenteritis, which presents with symptoms such as diarrhea, fever, nausea, and abdominal cramps. These symptoms usually develop within 6 to 72 hours after exposure to the bacteria. Though often self-limiting, severe cases can lead to dehydration and, in rare instances, death. On the other hand, systemic infections like typhoid fever can cause more severe illness, potentially leading to complications such as intestinal perforation, septic shock, or organ failure. Typhoid fever remains a major health issue in many developing countries, while gastrointestinal Salmonella infections are more frequently encountered in industrialized nations.

    The Egyptian pyramid is one of the most mysterious structures we have on Earth. Many times we will have wondered, seeing the pyramid of Khufu live or in the figure, how it could is been built, chi l'ha messa lì in quel luogo, e quando; ma soprattutto per quale ragione? Consisting of two million three hundred thousand stones, and weighing six millions tons, a mass of stones perfectly embedded like a laser, carried even from distant areas, and weighing eight tons each. When they were new, the pyramids could be compared to jewels, magnificent structures, which time has hardly scratched. But the most frequent question that comes to mind about them is: who built them? And were human beings able at that time to build something so huge and perfect? Or did they accept some outside help? And why was it so important to put them there? What was the purpose of putting them there? Now we will try to explain this great mystery, which shocked even Nicola Tesla, who was almost close to replicating them, creating free energy for the whol
