Science voice

He appears late at night, to discover the life's enigmas to the audience.

Eduard Punset, and his program Redes in 'La 2', are a drop of water in the middle of the TV schedule desert.

He broadcasts, with his nice catalan accent and his frequently stretched hands and arms when he asks something important, the latest scientific advances once a week for an hour.

He really enjoys with his job. He loves science. You can see he is always keen on learning from his interviewed scientists, although he is 70. He wants the spectators to be involved with the scientific methods.

You feel happy to see someone, with an age to be retired, who wants to learn more and more, who is so interested in science. He's not afraid of technological advances, nor of a future society living with robots. Investigation with stem cells doesn't scare him.

He seems he has found the happiness that he explains in his last but one book. From my point of view, a model to follow.

Here is an interview of him published in La Vanguardia.
