Esta obra de Termodinámica va destinada a los estudiantes de los cursos preparatorios de las Escuelas de Ingenieros, así como a los del primer ciclo de las Facultades de Ciencias.

Esta obra aporta un conocimiento profundo de los mecanismo con los cuales la luz interacciona con las cosas vivientes y de las tecnicas para estudiar estas interacciones. El propósito es facilitar una lectura para los estudiantes de carreras universitarias que sirva de puente entre la Fisica, la Quimica y la Biologia, especialmente para utilizarla como un complemento de los cursos de Quimica y Biologia.

Desde su estreno en la Noche de los Investigadores en 2011, la obra de teatro Estáis hechos unos elementos en la que el científico ruso Dmitri Mendeléiev recuerda el descubrimiento de algunos elementos quimicos y las vidas de algunos de los cientificos que los protagonizaron, se ha representado en varias ocasiones con una excelente respuesta de publico. El tema de la tabla periodica esta presente en la curricula de todos los estudiantes siendo su estudio uno de los que mas dificultad suscita. Ante esta realidad, el presente texto bilingue surge con el animo de que el profesorado disponga de una herramienta util y motivadora para llevar a sus aulas, a traves del teatro, la importancia de la Ciencia a lo largo de la historia y, el trabajo realizado por muchos investigadores e investigadoras en pro de encontrar nuevos elementos quimicos y aplicaciones para los mismos.From its debut on Researchers night in 2011, the play You are made up of elements in which scientist Dmitri Mendeleiev remembers both the discovery of some chemical elements and the lives of those scientists involved in this event, has been performed several times with a numerous audience and an excellent critical acclaim. All students study the Periodic Table in school. However, in general this topic is rejected because it is traditionally lear...

It''s impossible to look down on Earth from space and not be mesmerised by the fragile beauty of our planet. During my mission I became determined to share this unique perspective of the one place we all call home. This book captures a journey of discovery, not just the discovery of planet Earth - a stunning oasis of life in the vastness of space - but also the discovery of a newfound passion for photography, which has had a major impact on me. I hope readers enjoy leafing through these pages as much as I enjoyed taking these pictures.Hello, is this planet Earth? takes readers on a mesmerizing tour of Tims historic and inspirational six-month Principia mission. Based on over 150 of Tims stunning photographs that he took on board the international space station, many of which have not been seen before, this lavish collection showcases the beauty of earth from above, and is the perfect visual time capsule of Tims remarkable trip, which captured the imaginations of millions of children and adults across the world.The book can be enjoyed by readers of all ages, and comes with a personal commentary from Tim, full of his characteristic warmth and charm. The book includes breath-taking aerial photos of cities illuminated at night, the northern lights and unforgettable vistas of oceans, mountains and deserts. The title of the book is inspired by Tims famous wrong number dialled from space, when he accidentally misdialled a woman from the space station and inquired, Hello, is this planet Earth?During his mission, Tim conducted numerous ground-breaking science experiments and engaged the British public in ingenious ways. Tim became the first British astronaut to complete a spacewalk and the first person to run the London marathon in space. He spoke to hundreds of thousands of school children back on earth via events such as the Cosmic Classroom live from the ISS, engaging over 1 million children during the whole mission. He was also involved in other memorable events, such as presenting the BRIT Awards live from space in a dinner jacket. 24 million people watched Tim blast off and over 2 million fans continue to follow his updates across social media.In the Queens birthday honours, Tim was made a companion of the order of St Michael and St George, an award given to those who have given distinguished service overseas, or, in Tims case, in space.Tims proceeds received from the book will be donated to The Princes Trust.
