«Este libro trata de poner al alcance de todos los lectores las grandes conquistas de la ciencia, incluso las más complejas. No se trata de una obra técnica, ni de un manual para la enseñanza, sino de un libro de cultura general que intenta ser accesible al ciudadano de a pie del siglo XXI. Para hacer más comprensible la esencia de los descubrimientos fundamentales y el itinerario seguido por el pensamiento científico, he evitado cualquier recurso al lenguaje matemático, lo cual animará a la lectura a quienes se muestran alérgicos a él. En cambio he tenido muy en cuenta el aspecto...

In previous volumes in this series, Advances in Metal and Semiconductor Clusters, the focus has been on atomic clusters of metals, semiconductors and carbon. Fundamental gas phase studies have been surveyed, and most recently scientists have explored new materials which can be produced from clusters or cluster precursors. In this latest volume, the focus shifts to clusters composed primarily of non-metal molecules or atoms which have one or more metal atoms seeded into the cluster as an impurity. These clusters provide model systems for metal ion solvation processes and metal-ligand...
