Modern culture tends to separate medicine and miracles, but their histories are closely intertwined. The Roman Catholic Church recognizes saints through canonization based on evidence that they worked miracles, as signs of their proximity to God. Physicianhistorian Jacalyn Duffin has examined Vatican sources on 1400 miracles from six continents and spanning four centuries. Overwhelmingly the miracles cited in canonizations between 1588 and 1999 are healings, and the majority entail medical care and physician testimony.

¿Por qué el cine en el aula? La respuesta es contundente: se trata de un elemento importantísimo de dinamización que favorece tareas académicas básicas como la comprensión, la adquisición de conceptos, el razonamiento, la interpretación, el análisis crítico. El cine en la escuela, además, potencia la reflexión, sensibiliza y ayuda a formarse opiniones. Más de un siglo de cine nos ha regalado un patrimonio comunicativo, histórico, artístico y vital de proporciones inimaginables. El libro sigue un guión didáctico, ameno y fascinador para introducir el cine en las aulas de primaria y de secundaria, a fin y efecto de proyectar el análisis y la comprensión de su lenguaje, de su historia, de su magia. La distribución de los capítulos del libro en dos partes claramente diferenciadas --un bloque teórico para los contenidos del cine y otro con las propuestas didácticas para primaria y secundaria-- responde a la intención de facilitar la labor al docente en la educación cinematográfica en el aula.
