No cabe duda de que la ciencia nos ha ayudado enormemente a mejorar el conocimiento que tenemos de nosotros mismos. Sin embargo, al mismo tiempo, también nos ha llevado a adoptar una triste cosmovisión en la que nos experimentamos como pequeñas motas insignificantes en un universo mecánico. Afortunadamente, la física cuántica moderna demuestra que, en realidad, habitamos un universo vibrante e inteligente en el que cada uno de nosotros desempeña un papel fundamental a la hora de darle forma. En esta obra revolucionaria, Mel Schwartz explica cómo la integración de esta nueva visión del mundo en nuestro día a día nos lleva a trascender nuestras limitaciones y abrirnos a un campo de posibilidades infinitas. El Principio de Posibilidad revela cómo aplicar los tres principios centrales de la física cuántica -la inseparabilidad, la incertidumbre y la potencialidad- para vivir la vida que elijamos, libres de las heridas del pasado y las limitaciones de las viejas creencias.

With over fifty years of experience in this field, the editor has compiled numerous insightful contributions from an extensive group of leading experts. In this volume, they present the latest on a variety of smart materials, their processing, fabrication, and recent applications as well as the family grouping of materials. The book examines the enormous potential for rapid implementation of smart materials in a wide range of end-user sectors and industries, including the medical, aerospace, pharmaceutical, and environmental fields. It also provides real-world examples of the use of chitosan-based hydrogels, smart polymers, shape memory alloys, and carbon micro- and nanotubes.
