Traces the work of many scientists over more than one hundred years in developing man's knowledge of nuclear power.

In a world full of false information, prejudices, myths, deceits and poor knowledge, nobody is the possessor of the supreme truth or has the definitive answers to our questions (not even Google). However, logical and skeptical thinking is our weapon to combat false argumentation, crazy reasoning and superstition. It is a difficult process that requires our full attention, but it is worth it. The Universe's Guide to Skeptics will explain the principles of skeptical thinking and teach you how it has served to debunk some of the greatest conspiracy myths, fallacies, and theories, from homeopathy ...

La bioética es un vocablo presentado por el especialista norteamericano Van Rensselaer Potter (1911-2012). Este término ya había sido presentado en 1927 por el pastor protestante, teólogo, filósofo y educador alemán Fritz Jahr Potter, quien igualmente realizó trabajos académicos sobre el cáncer y el cultivo del humanismo mediante la exaltación de los valores éticos. La palabra bioética, de origen griego, posee dos grandes concepciones: bios = vida y ethos = ética. Su significado etimológico sería, entonces, ética de la vida. Según el Diccionario de la Real Academia de la...

This volume covers the advances in the organometallic chemistry of nickel, palladium and platinum since publication of COMC in 1982. Major applications of the organometallic compounds of the nickel group are in catalytic and stoichiometric organic synthesis and in materials synthesis. This volume covers the fundamental organometallic chemistry which underpins these applications. The level of sophistication in many areas has increased substantially since COMC, for example in the development of chiral organometallics for use in synthesis, in the synthesis and characterization of larger cluster...
