E.O. Wilson warned that we would drown in information while starving for wisdom. The stranger truth is that the wisdom is already here — and we're still thirsty.

The names Jacob, James, Santiago, Jaime, Jacques, Giacomo, Iago, and Tiago look like they have nothing to do with one another. They are, in fact, the very same name — reshaped over centuries by every language it passed through.
