“One of the penalties of an ecological education is that one lives alone in a world of wounds. An ecologist must either harden his shell and make believe that the consequences of science are none of his business, or he must be the doctor who sees the marks of death in a community that believes itself well and does not want to be told otherwise.”

“I started writing this book two years ago, to write the book I wish I had when I was finishing my undergrad or in my first years of grad school. I pack here all that I learned about writing and publishing papers. As an editor of scientific journals, it is always sad to see some manuscripts with potential but they don’t follow some basic rules of scientific writing. Also many people make silly mistakes in the submission to the journals or when responding to reviewers. I really hope this book can help many to make writing and publishing easier and even enjoyable. I made so it is short and easy to read, with many nice comics and figures that I hope make it even easier to read.”

“Centuries after Plato’s allegory, neuroscience now confirms that indeed, perception is a filter, not a passive window onto reality. Our brains are not cameras capturing an objective world; they are artists crafting a narrative. Light pours onto your retina upside‑down and full of gaps, yet you don’t see the world as an upside‑down patchwork full of holes.”

“The truth was a mirror in the hands of God. It fell, and broke into pieces. Everybody took a piece of it, and they looked at it and thought they had the truth.”

Inspirational Truth

“Once, in a rainstorm, I witnessed the creation of a rivulet. The water had come down, the stream had begun in a hollow of earth the size of a leaf. Then it filled and began to flow. The rivulet rolled down the hill between some stalks of grass and weed, it moved in spurts, down the fall of a ledge, down to a brook. It did not know it was not a river.”
