"The animal was well-known for balking, and was an expert in reaching the finish line dead last if it arrived at all.

And that passion for writing he is the author of some 15 books along with his unshakable calling as a science communicator, have led him to his latest publication, which came out in January: El sexto elemento (The sixth element)."
