Carlos Granés
At the onset of the
20th Century, in a serene and neutral Switzerland, two revolutionary
groups coexisted. The first—under Lenin’s
yoke—set out to transform society, economy and politics. The
second—Dadaist—prepared to alter minds, customs,
values and people’s way of life. What were the outcomes of
these revolutions? The socialist crumbled in the 80’s after
the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union. The
second, the avant-garde, faced a paradoxical fate: even though each of
the utopian battles ended in defeat, their actions left their mark and
gained following.

risky, and it was sadly never published during his lifetime.one.

El
gran libro de la vida sana
Txumari
Alfaro and Raúl de la Rosa
For
a long time, the cause of diseases was sought only in physiological
processes, regardless of environmental pollutants, electromagnetic
radiation, toxic chemicals in food, social relationships, habits of
life or our own emotions. The environment we live in is changing and we
must surround ourselves with what is most beneficial for our health.
