It is an experience that oscillates between two different worlds: the different and the similar, the professional and the personal.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIt is an established fact that one of his great loves was, and still is, science. He has always been dedicated to scientific work, teaching, research, and training men and women in multiple disciplines.  Life lessons fall like ripe fruit from this book, bringing us closer to a concept, a philosophical idea, a scientific digression, which had since been uncovered in numerous notes, articles or books.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBunge writes about the life experiences in this book with passion, naturalness and with a colloquial frankness, whether they be persecutions, banishment, imprisonment, successes, would-be losses, emotions, relationships, debates, impressions or opinions about people or things.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn his pages we pass by the people with whom he shared a fruitful century of achievements and incredible depths of thought. Everything is remembered with sincerity and humor.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis autobiography is, in truth, Bunge on Bunge, sharing everything that passes through the sieve of his memory, as he would say.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMario’s many grandchildren are a testament to his proud standing as a family man, and at the age of 96 he gives us a book for everyone: for those who value the memories that hold the trauma of his life as well as for those who share his passion for science and culture. Also, perhaps, for some with whom he has had disagreements or controversy, for he still deserves recognition for being a staunch defender of his convictions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-05-11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319292502\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-29251-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 496\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45417798074508,"sku":"9783319292502","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319292502.jpg?v=1775053886","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319292502","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
