Los humanos tenemos la extraña manía de hacernos preguntas. Muchas. Todos los días. Pero a veces, por más que lo intentemos y aunque no nos guste admitirlo, no solo no encontramos las respuestas, sino que ni tan siquiera sabemos dónde ir a buscarlas. ¿O es que nunca os habéis preguntado por qué saltan chispas cuando metemos un metal en el microondas? Sin embargo, la verdadera pregunta es esta: ¿dónde están las respuestas? Pues en la ciencia, ¿dónde si no? El problema es que la ciencia a veces se convierte en algo oscuro e ininteligible, y por mucho que googleemos nuestras dudas,...

Humanity's understanding of the physical world is full of gaps. Not tiny little gaps you can safely ignore -- there are huge yawning voids in our basic notions of how the world works. Jorge Cham and Daniel Whiteson team up to explore everything we don't know about the universe, and while introducing the biggest mysteries in physics, they also helpfully demystify many complicated things we do know. And although the universe is full of weird things that don't make any sense, Cham and Whiteson make a case that the questions we can't answer are as interesting as the ones we can, and they invite...

Eighty-eight lavishly illustrated pages of stepby-step coloured drawings and photographs teaches you how to grow orchids confidently, successfully and professionally.

A study covering the gas-phase chemistry of organometallic ions. Topics covered include: periodic trends in gas-phase thermochemistry of transition metal-ligand systems; ab initio calculations to determine electronic structure, geometric structure, and thermochemistry of metal-containing systems; electronic state effects on metal ion reactivity; organometallic ion photochemistry; and applications of gas-phase electron transfer equilibria in organometallic redox thermochemistry. Also included are state-of-the-art mass spectrometric instrumentation used in such studies. It also features a...
