Curious logbook of human knowledge - Introduction

Welcome curious navigators to a new project being introduced here on Steemit. The aim of this project is to bring a series of books to the awareness of a growing audience of curiously minded individuals with the hope of collectively expanding our knowledge and enjoyment of reading.
Each post will provide a book or a collection of books from a same author/topic and a commentary regarding the main issues covered in the book or some of its insightful viewpoints. It is with this spirit of curiosity, that I intend to carry throughout this series, with which a new relationship will begin to form between you the readers and me, thus forming an intellectual web stretching borderless throughout the world.

As an ending note to this introductory post I would like to end with a beautiful quote from one of the most famous figures to live on this planet.

“The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.”
- Albert Einstein -
