The Smart Neanderthal casts a new light on the Neanderthals and the "Cognitive Revolution". Finlayson argues that there was no revolution and, instead, modern behavior arose gradually and independently among different populations of Modern Humans and Neanderthals, raising questions about who we really are.

This thesis (written in Spanish) presents the analysis, design and implementation of a four-quadrant power supply with high-frequency isolation, which is expected to be used to feed the low-energy correction magnet of a particle accelerator. In particle accelerator applications the magnetic field during beam acceleration may be either positive or negative, and true bipolar power converters are needed. The selected bipolar topology consists of a bidirectional three-phase to single-phase reduced matrix converter (RMC) with power factor correction and a bidirectional active rectifier. Main...

Biographies and bibliographies of members are included in many of the volumes. Lists of members are usually given on covers of the numbers.

Uno de los fines principales de este libro es dar a conocer las causas de los terremotos, la forma en que las ondas que generan se propagan, y como afectan el terreno y estructuras, asi como los principios de riesgo y prevencion sismicos. "Esta es -escribe el autor- la justificacion y la finalidad de mi trabajo, en el cual se pretende presentar los principios de la sismologia en forma cuidadosa, pero de tal manera que el lector no necesite de conocimientos especiales de fisica, matematicas o geologia para entenderlos."
