In addition, readers learn by examining how forces usually considered destructive work to help forests survive. 32pp.

Life without Principle se llamó originalmente What Shall it Profit, y fue una conferencia dictada por Thoreau el 6 de diciembre de 1854 en el Hall del Ferrocarril de Rhode Island. Posteriormente, dictó la conferencia cuatro veces más en Massachusetts durante 1855, y una vez más en Nueva Jersey al año siguiente. La versión que tradujimos fue editada por el mismo Thoreau para su publicación en formato impreso, que realizó Atlantic Monthly en 1863, donde recibió su título actual.

The sun is responsible for all life on Earth, but what exactly is it? Our star is an amazing force that can be as dangerous as it is important. From solar flares to the threat of blowing up altogether, the sun is one of the most interesting things in our solar system. Readers take a trip to the sun to see how it works and exactly what it is made of. They’ll learn about the life cycle of a star and see just how long we have until we have to find a new planet to call home. Don’t worry, they’ll be happy to learn that (hopefully) we have millions of years left!
