Sin duda, los lectores ya conocen
este título gracias a la emisión
de la serie de televisión que
emite Tele5 todos los fines de
semana bajo el mismo título.
Los protagonistas de esta
historia son tres. Miyu, una
estudiante que se queda a
vivir en casa de un amigo de sus
padres porque ambos se encuentran
en EE.UU. trabajando para la
NASA; Kanata, el hijo del amigo de los padres de Miyu, y Lou, un bebé extraterrestre
que se estrella en casa de Kanata (un templo tradicional japonés) después de
que su padre se haya ido de viaje espiritual a la India. El bebé vuela, hace travesuras
y llama mamá y papá a los desconcertados Miyu y Kanata. A todo esto hay que añadir
la mascota-niñera que acompaña a Lou en forma de Pin, Guau-Miau, un ser que puede
transformarse en cualquier cosa.

A partir de 12 años

En la primavera de 1453 los otomanos vencen a sangre y fuego la resistencia que opone la capital del imperio bizantino. Entre los defensores de Constantinopla destaca Giovanni Angelos, un guerrero misterioso que ejemplifica la ambigüedad de este período.

Fuzzy differential functions are applicable to real-world problems in engineering, computer science, and social science. That relevance makes for rapid development of new ideas and theories. This volume is a timely introduction to the subject that describes the current state of the theory of fuzzy differential equations and inclusions and provides a systematic account of recent developments. The chapters are presented in a clear and logical way and include the preliminary material for fuzzy set theory; a description of calculus for fuzzy functions, an investigation of the basic theory of fuzzy differential equations, and an introduction to fuzzy differential inclusions.

A monotone iterative technique is used to obtain monotone approximate solutions that converge to the solution of nonlinear problems of partial differential equations of elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic type. This volume describes that technique, which has played a valuable role in unifying a variety of nonlinear problems, particularly when combined with the quasilinearization method. The first part of this monograph describes the general methodology using the classic approach, while the second part develops the same basic ideas via the variational technique. The text provides a useful and timely reference for applied scientists, engineers and numerical analysts.

A comprehensive reference for the emerging fresh-cut fruits and vegetable industry, Fresh-cut Fruits and Vegetables: Science, Technology and Market focuses on the unique biochemical, physiological, microbiological, and quality changes in fresh-cut processing and storage. It highlights the distinct equipment design, packaging requirements, production economics, and marketing considerations for fresh-cut products. Based on the extensive research in this area during the last 10 years, this reference is the first to cover the complete spectrum of science, technology, and marketing issues related to this field.

Esta obra es uno de los más célebres frescos históricos que nos legó Mika Waltari. En ella se reproduce con intensidad y colorido el mundo judeoromano del siglo I, donde no podía faltar la figura de Jesús y sus primeros seguidores. El protagonista al que alude el título es inicialmente un típico romano de la época, de vida licenciosa y costumbres disipadas, pero del contacto con los apóstoles surgirá un nuevo Marco. El recorrido de Marco por el mundo conocido de la época es una fascinante aventura por la que Waltari conduce al lector con mano maestra.
