Il capitano generale lagrimo per allegrezza e nomino quel capo:
Deseado, perehe l'avevamo gia gran tempo desiderato. Antonio
Pigafetta Il Primo Viaggo in torno al Mondo I would like to take
some poetic license in introducing this volume in a way that seems
appropriate for a country, like Chile, that Iooks to the ocean. I
believe it was Heisenberg who compared different times in physics
with sailing a ship. He said that most of the time we keep our
ships in port, or in the protection of a bay. But on a few
occasions we go into the open sea, and those occasions are really
the great times in theoretical physics, when everything can change.
It does not seem totally unwarranted to hope that we are now
entering one of those times. In that spirit, I would like to
mention a wonderful book, which in English would be called
something like Chile, Or a Crazy Geography.
