Book Synopsis



Hacia la medicina de la salud


Un nuevo enfoque para lograr el equilibrio físico y mental


Carlos López-Otín, catedrático de Bioquímica y Biología Molecular reconocido internacionalmente por sus contribuciones al estudio del genoma humano, el envejecimiento y el cáncer, recorre la historia de la medicina para mostrar cómo ha evolucionado nuestro concepto de salud hacia una verdadera medicina de la salud.


Basándose en investigaciones recientes, el autor propone que la salud no es solo la ausencia de enfermedad, sino el equilibrio entre nueve claves celulares y moleculares que permiten el funcionamiento óptimo del organismo. Explica cómo los aspectos físicos y mentales se entrelazan y ofrece pautas prácticas para mejorar el bienestar.


Con un enfoque multidisciplinario y una prosa accesible, La levedad de las libélulas invita a reconsiderar ideas clásicas sobre la medicina y a imaginar un futuro donde el cuidado de la salud sea una cultura de vida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Toward the medicine of health


A new approach to achieve physical and mental balance


Carlos López-Otín, professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology internationally recognized for his work on the human genome, aging, and cancer, traces the history of medicine to show how our concept of health has evolved toward a true medicine of health.


Drawing on recent research, the author proposes that health is not merely the absence of disease but the balance among nine cellular and molecular keys that enable optimal body function. He explains how physical and mental aspects intertwine and offers practical guidance to improve wellbeing.


With a multidisciplinary approach and clear prose, La levedad de las libélulas (The Lightness of Dragonflies) invites readers to reconsider conventional medical ideas and imagine a future in which health care is a culture of life.
