Cuando Rita Levi-Montalcini trato de conciliar dos aspiraciones inconciliables segun el gran poeta Yeats: perfeccion en la vida o perfeccion en el trabajo, se decanto por la imperfeccion en la vida y en el trabajo. Y al descubrir el placer que le procuraban vivir y trabajar, descubrio que eso, la imperfeccion, era lo que mas se avenia a la naturaleza humana. Su vida mujer, y cientifica, y de origen judio es una odisea que recorre el siglo xx y parte del xxi. Elogio de la imperfeccion es su autobiografia, un balance de la trayectoria profesional y vital de mas de cien anos de la cientifica y la mujer. / When Rita Levi-Montalcini tried to reconcile two irreconcilable aspirations, ""perfection in life or perfection at work, she opted for the imperfection in life and at work. She discovered the pleasure of living and working, and found that imperfection was what got along with human nature. In praise of imperfection is her autobiography, a balance of career and life

<p>This volume is a collection of articles written by Nobel Laureate Rita Levi-Montalcini and published from 1942 to 1995. Studies described in the first part set the stage for the discovery of a protein molecule which became known as the Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), described in detail in the second part. The NGF synthesized in minute amounts in all vertebrate tissues, plays an essential role in the differentiation and survival of several nerve cell populations in the peripheral and central nervous system. The discovery of the NGF was defined by the Nobel Foundation as a milestone in developmental neurobiology, and the author was awarded in 1986 with this prestigious award. Studies pursued in subsequent years and still in progress, have unveiled other fundamental properties of the NGF, described in the third part of this volume.</p>
