The encounter of a science-based person with an extraterrestrial
being results into the learning of unexpected things, because that
extraterrestrial being is spiritually huge. In this book scientific
knowledge faces the real "Universal Wisdom" in equal conditions.
This book invites the reader to think on a different way from the
dogmas and paradigms that modern society has imposed to us, just as
for science as for spirituality, considering both knowledge the
same valid and important to us, so we can all grow as persons.
While we have a feeling that our 'thought experiment' could bear
fruit, we are far from the idea that equivalent expressions by the
brain and the immune function point to an axis of both systems.
Al-though major players, they also depend on the regulation of the
rest of the body. As we focus here rather on a social context, many
more factors are to be accounted for. Shanty-towns, rather than
being seen in a dismissive context, may provide clues to historical
conditions, a tip off perhaps to update the idea of
'individualistic' immunity. Subjected to all kinds of inward and
outward interferences, obviously, a historical approach is complex.
Urban overcrowding, by replacing nomadic life, allowed multiple
interacting brains to develop civilization and science. The fact
that survival under prolonged siege had been recorded, filthy food
and water supply notwithstanding, suggests that collective immune
adaptation may not be out of question either. Fortunately,
experimental evidence in mice and other animal comes in support to
our hypothesis of collective immunity. As yet no consensus about
immune stimulation or downplaying has been reached, our aim being
the possibility of reciprocal immune influence as such.
Photochemistry, a sub-discipline of chemistry, is the study of the
interactions between atoms, small molecules, and light (or
electromagnetic radiation). Like most scientific disciplines,
photochemistry utilises the SI or metric measurement system.
Important units and constants that show up regularly include the
meter (and variants such as centimetre, millimetre, micrometer,
manometer, etc.), seconds, hertz, joules, moles, the gas constant
R, and the Boltzmann constant. These units and constants are also
integral to the field of physical chemistry. There are important
processes based in the photochemistry principles. One case is
photosynthesis, which some plants use light to create glucose in
their chloroplasts to contribute to cell metabolism. The glucose is
used by the plant's mitochondria to produce Adenosine Triphosphate.
Medicine bottles are made with darkened glass to prevent the
medicine itself from reacting chemically with light. In fireflies,
an enzyme in the abdomen works to produce bioluminescence. The
mercaptans or thiols are produced by photochemical addition of
hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to alfa olefins. Among their many uses as a
chemical reagent these mercaptans are used to provide a distinctive
odour (an odorant) to otherwise odourless natural gas. This new
book is dedicated to presenting the latest research from around the
world in this particular field.
Este libro busca intervenir en el debate sobre formas del
pensamiento latinoamericano, mas alla de la historia de las ideas,
el poscolonialismo/decolonialismo, y la filosofia de la liberacion.
Utiliza la literatura de Jose Revueltas (Mexico, 1914-1976) y
Roberto Bolano (Chile, 1953-2003) para pensar filosoficamente a
America Latina, e interrogar modos de la experiencia ilegibles
desde coordenadas liberales y humanistas. Se trata de pensar con
Revueltas y Bolano, antes que pensar a Revueltas y Bolano. Por eso,
la trama del libro se desarrolla a partir del analisis
antimoralista de tres episodios: la Revolucion Mexicana; las
revueltas de 1968 en Mexico, y el golpe militar en Chile en 1973.
Esto permite trazar otra imagen de America Latina por fuera de la
victimizacion, la autocompasion o la autoindulgencia. Y abrir el
pensamiento latinoamericano a lo generico, lejos de la idea de
originalidad, deficit o negatividad frente al pensamiento europeo o
norteamericano.
En un colegio de apariencia muy sencilla, se ensena a los alumnos
la forma de incrementar el potencial de su mente a traves de clases
y materiales muy simples. En este libro, se expone la forma para
realizar cosas que podrian considerarse como extraordinarias e
imposibles, mediante personajes que nos muestran que con la guia
adecuada cualquier persona que lo desee, que cuente con la fuerza
espiritual y con la disciplina necesaria puede lograr realizarlas.
El encuentro entre una persona de formacion cientifica y un ser
"extraterrestre" resultan en un gran aprendizaje de cosas
inesperadas, ya que ese ser extraterrestre es un ser
espiritualmente enorme. En este libro se ponen a prueba varios
conocimientos cientificos, enfrentados en igualdad de condiciones
con la verdadera "sabiduria universal." Es un libro que invita al
lector a razonar de forma distinta a los dogmas y paradigmas que la
sociedad moderna nos ha impuesto, tanto respecto a ciencia como
respecto a espiritualidad; considerando a ambos conocimientos como
igual de validos e importantes para lograr crecer como personas.
