About this ebook

Questions are the life force that drives curiosity and discovery. From the first years of schooling to the most advanced academic levels, questions serve as the spark that ignites the fire of knowledge. Imagine a child on his first day of school, eyes shining with curiosity, asking questions one after another, eager to understand the world around him. Or consider a scientist immersed in research, posing innovative questions that challenge the limits of established knowledge.


The power of questions lies in their ability to open doors to new perspectives and understandings. A simple question can trigger a deep process of reflection and analysis, leading individuals to question their assumptions, explore new ideas and come up with creative solutions.
