La conciencia y la mecánica cuántica son dos grandes misterios de nuestro tiempo, y recientemente los estudiosos han postulado una conexión más profunda entre ellos. Explorar esta posible conexión puede ser apasionante: un analisis de la menteconsciente y de la conexion psicofisica puede ser indispensable para comprender la mecanica cuantica y resolver el notorio problema de la medicion, y tambien es probable que exista algun tipo de conexion intima entre la mecanica cuantica --lateoria mas fundamental del mundo fisico-- y nuestros esfuerzos por explicar, de forma naturalista, el fenomeno de la conciencia.Se trata del primer volumen que ofrece una revision exhaustiva y un analisis minucioso de las intrigantes conjeturas sobre la conexion entre la conciencia y la mecanica cuantica. Escrito por destacados expertos en fisica, filosofia y cienciascognitivas, sera de gran utilidad para estudiantes e investigadores que trabajen en los fundamentos de la mecanica cuantica y la filosofia de la mente.

¿Tenían los antiguos conocimiento de la naturaleza holográfica de la mente y del modelo de realidad que ha descubierto la física cuántica? ¿Conocían los egipcios la autopoiesis, término utilizado para describir el proceso de cognicion en los seres vivos y que ha revolucionado el mundo de la biologia? ¿Esconden los textos jeroglificos contenidos simbolicos que han pasado desapercibidos por los egiptologos y que explican la razon de ser de la Gran Piramide? ¿A que se referia Platon en uno de sus dialogos cuando indicaba que, de forma periodica, se cierne sobre la Tierra una catastrofe proveniente del cielo que vuelve a dejar a los seres humanos como si fueran niños? En suma,"Conciencia"llena un gran vacio en el campo del pensamiento y desvela el que mas grande los enigmas: la genealogia de la conciencia.

Modern experimental developments in condensed matter and ultracold atom physics present formidable challenges to theorists. This book provides a pedagogical introduction to quantum field theory in many-particle physics, emphasizing the applicability of the formalism to concrete problems. This second edition contains two new chapters developing path integral approaches to classical and quantum nonequilibrium phenomena. Other chapters cover a range of topics, from the introduction of many-body techniques and functional integration, to renormalization group methods, the theory of response functions, and topology. Conceptual aspects and formal methodology are emphasized, but the discussion focuses on practical experimental applications drawn largely from condensed matter physics and neighboring fields. Extended and challenging problems with fully worked solutions provide a bridge between formal manipulations and research-oriented thinking. Aimed at elevating graduate students to a level where they can engage in independent research, this book complements graduate level courses on many-particle theory.

Condiciones del suelo y desarrollo de las plantas, según Russell es la versión española de la undécima edición inglesa del libro Russell's Soil conditions and Plant Growth, cuya preparación ha sido dirigida por el Prof. Alan Wild. El libro hace hincapie en los efectos cuantitativos del suelo y el clima sobre el crecimiento de los cultivos agricolas, pero la mayoria del analisis es suficientemente general para poder aplicarlo a las especies forestales y la vegetacion natural. Los autores han tenido tambien en cuenta la preocupacion presente por la contaminacion por metales pesados y nitratos. La version española puede ser util para estudiantes, investigadores y divulgadores en agricultura, horticultura, silvicultura y ciencias del suelo, y a otros interesados en el mantenimiento de la fertilidad del suelo y el uso apropiado de la tierra.
