Focused on the medical activity of childhood and adolescence, he is currently president of the Association Blue Path, an institution that aims to help families with Autism Spectrum Disorder and in social vulnerability, in addition to promoting science and training for the Brazilian community in all areas.

Nature makes no leaps is the title of the Special that illustrates this edition and is one of its highlights. Authored by the spiritist scholar, medium and writer Eurípedes Kühl, the article analyses the issue of material and spiritual progress in the world in which we live and warns us, with remarkable clarity, that the moral progress of Humanity as a whole will only be achieved by the sum of spiritual progress of every human being, fully respecting all Divine Laws, inserted by God in the consciousness of human beings.

The book Praeiro, a pilgrim from Terra do Pantanal, written by the Spiritist scholar Jorge Hessen, member of the Editorial Board of The Comforter magazine. The work illustrates the biography of Lieutenant Aristotelino Alves Praeiro and records the beginnings of the spiritist movement in the state of Mato Grosso, as shown by Angélica Reis in a special article published in this edition.
