For 50 years, Star Trek has been an inspiration to its fans around
the world, helping them to dream of a better future. This
inspiration has entered our culture and helped to shape much of the
technology of the early 21st Century. The contributors to this
volume are researchers and teachers in a wide variety of
disciplines; from Astrophysics to Ethnology, from English and
History to Medicine and Video Games, and from American Studies to
the study of Collective Computing Systems. What the authors have in
common is that some version of Star Trek has inspired them, not
only in their dreams of what may be, but in the ways in which they
work - and teach others to work - here in the real world.
Introduced with references to Star Trek films and television shows,
and illustrated with original cartoons, each of the 15 chapters
included in this volume provides insights into research and
teaching in this range of academic fields.

La produccion agraria de citricos en la Comunidad Valenciana cuenta
con una consolidada tradicion exportadora, siendo Espana el
principal pais exportador a nivel mundial. Con un comercio
globalizado en el que la competitividad de los productos es un
factor determinante, el transporte y sus modalidades pueden tener
una importante influencia a la hora de posicionar las mercancias en
los mercados. En el contexto actual, desde las Administraciones se
estan impulsando medidas de optimizacion y reduccion de los
consumos energeticos siendo el transporte uno de los principales
objetivos. Por otra parte, junto a los precios, los consumidores
cada vez estan mas concienciados de la importancia de factores como
los ambientales al adquirir productos. Dada la vinculacion del
consumo energetico y la generacion de emisiones de gases efecto
invernadero que se producen con el transporte de los citricos, se
plantea una aproximacion al calculo de la absorcion/emision de CO2
derivadas del cultivo y la exportacion segun los modos de
transporte utilizados, y se valora en el caso concreto del
cooperativismo citricola de la Comunidad Valenciana."
