About the Book

Dan Carlin, el creador del podcast de historia más famoso de todos los tiempos, nos embarca en un excepcional viaje en el tiempo para convertir el pasado en la clave de nuestro turbio presente.

¿Los tiempos difíciles hacen más duras a las personas? ¿Podemos manejar el poder de nuestras armas o estamos condenados a autodestruirnos? ¿La tecnología y las capacidades humanas seguirán desarrollándose o pueden llegar a un punto máximo o incluso retroceder? ¿Estamos condenados a desaparecer?

Nadie tiene respuestas para semejantes preguntas, pero solo Dan Carlin, el creador del monumental y multipremiado podcast Hardcore History, tiene la capacidad de abordarlas de una forma tan genial.

El fin siempre está cerca es un relato fascinante y transgresor sobre el auge y la caída de las civilizaciones que nos obliga a revisar todo lo que creíamos saber sobre la historia y a reconsiderar lo que parecían fantasías: nada nos impide sufrir el mismo destino que nuestros antepasados. ¿Se convertirá nuestro mundo en ruinas para que los futuros arqueólogos las desentierren y exploren? Los planteamientos de Carlin, repletos de cuestiones filosóficas y de hipótesis a partir del ayer, recuerdan a los mejores episodios de La dimensión desconocida.

Aventurándose en un maravilloso compendio de historias apocalípticas que enganchan de principio a fin y que giran en torno a un solo eje -el de la supervivencia humana-, Dan Carlin rompe todos los moldes y nos embarca en un excepcional viaje en el tiempo que busca convertir el pasado en la clave de nuestro turbio presente.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Now a New York Times Bestseller.

The creator of the wildly popular award-winning podcast Hardcore History looks at some of the apocalyptic moments from the past as a way to frame the challenges of the future.

Do tough times create tougher people? Can humanity handle the power of its weapons without destroying itself? Will human technology or capabilities ever peak or regress? No one knows the answers to such questions, but no one asks them in a more interesting way than Dan Carlin.
In The End is Always Near, Dan Carlin looks at questions and historical events that force us to consider what sounds like fantasy; that we might suffer the same fate that all previous eras did. Will our world ever become a ruin for future archaeologists to dig up and explore? The questions themselves are both philosophical and like something out of The Twilight Zone.

Combining his trademark mix of storytelling, history and weirdness Dan Carlin connects the past and future in fascinating and colorful ways. At the same time the questions he asks us to consider involve the most important issue imaginable: human survival. From the collapse of the Bronze Age to the challenges of the nuclear era the issue has hung over humanity like a persistent Sword of Damocles.

Inspired by his podcast, The End is Always Near challenges the way we look at the past and ourselves. In this absorbing compendium, Carlin embarks on a whole new set of stories and major cliffhangers that will keep readers enthralled. Idiosyncratic and erudite, offbeat yet profound, The End is Always Near examines issues that are rarely presented, and makes the past immediately relevant to our very turbulent present.
