Today, when artificial intelligence seems to have the answers for everything and we're surrounded by ignorance-mongers, do we still know how many open questions there are about the world and life? Well, so many. Through a fascinating journey through biology, evolution, and genetics, Telmo Pievani (Six Stories of Good Ignorance, Raffaello Cortina Editore) invites us to shift perspective and embrace uncertainty: acknowledging that we don't know is the first step to continuing to learn and freeing ourselves from the false certainties, presumptions, and prejudices that intoxicate our minds. In conversation with author Raffaele Riba.
