All the Knowledge in the World is a history and celebration of those who created the most groundbreaking and remarkable publishing phenomenon of any age. It tracks the story from Ancient Greece to Wikipedia, from modest single-volumes to the 11,000-volume Chinese manuscript that was too big to print.

"El porvenir de una ilusión" es una obra de 1927 de Sigmund Freud. Se considera su principal obra sobre la religión, vista como un fenómeno social contemporáneo. Para Freud, la base de la religión es el desamparo humano. Una reacción infantil a esto es el deseo de un padre protector. En la religión este deseo se cumple, pero sólo en la fantasía, y en este sentido la religión es una ilusión: una fantasía de cumplimiento de deseos. El progreso de la ciencia lleva al reconocimiento de la impotencia humana y, por tanto, al declive de la religión; Freud se congratula de esta evolución.

Die Coronakrise zwang Schülerinnen und Schüler ins "Homeschooling". Online-Lernen schien das Gebot der Stunde zu sein. Doch lernschwache Kinder wurden dabei benachteiligt und selbst viele ältere Schüler scheiterten am eigenständigen Lernen. Und: Ein Gros der Eltern geriet massiv unter Druck, Heimschule und Beruf unter einen Hut zu bringen. Gleichzeitig schossen die Bildschirmzeiten in die Höhe - nicht nur für schulische Zwecke, sondern für Computerspiele und soziale Medien. Gibt es in Deutschland einfach zu wenig Tablets und Online-Angebote für Schüler?
