Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Descripción: 21x13 cm. Encuadernación: rústica. Colección: Colección Caminos,70. Muchos años antes de que la llamada \"postmodernidad\" (la era postcristiana), la caída del telón de acero y la aparición del nuevo terrorismo internacional se instalaran como paradigma de análisis, Thomas Merton fue capaz de rastrear en esta obra (censurada en su momento por sus superiores trapenses y que ahora ve la luz por primera vez) la crisis que la situación cultural y política actual alberga en su seno. En nuestros días, ante el clima mundial de guerra y confrontación, esta obra inédita recobra una inusitada actualidad, contribuyendo a renovar el interés que siempre ha suscitado el cristianismo enérgico, iluminado y plenamente decidido, aquél que propugna una revolución interior que abandone la búsqueda del poder bruto para someterse a la sabiduría del amor y de la Cruz. Thomas Merton, (1915-1968) fue una de las figuras espirituales más prominentes del siglo XX y es universalmente conocido como uno de los maestros espirituales más influyentes de nuestro tiempo. Trapense, escritor y activista por la paz y los derechos humanos, es autor de numerosas obras. En esta misma colección se han publicado sus obras Orar los salmos y Dirección espiritual y meditación . *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. MERTON, Thomas Ralph. (T.R.) 13 original offprints, 1911-1928. Works from Philosophical Magazine, Transactions of the Chemical Society, and Proceedings of the Royal Society. Nearly all are concerned with spectroscopy. Please send a note for full descriptions. The papers include the following bibliographical numbers from the Royal Society publishing website: 2, 3, 7, 13, 16, 28, 30, 32, 37, 38, 40 plus three not in the bibliography. All are in FINE condition. "Sir Thomas Ralph Merton KBE, DSc, FRS[1] (12 January 1888 10 October 1969) was an English physicist, inventor and art collector. He is particularly noted for his work on spectroscopy and diffraction gratings. After 1913 a steady stream of papers came from Merton's private laboratory, in which he assembled the latest spectroscopic equipment. His early work was on the absorption spectra of solutions, but he soon changed to the spectra of gases and to astrophysics, which were to be the main fields of his investigations. His early papers were distinguished by the beauty and accuracy of his experimental techniques. In 1916 he obtained his DSc from Oxford and was appointed lecturer in spectroscopy at King's College London. In the same year his first joint paper with his friend J. W. Nicholson appeared. It was a fortunate chance which brought together Nicholson's brilliant mathematical analysis and Merton's experimental skill. The paper dealt with the broadening of spectral lines in a condensed discharge. By an ingenious technique Merton measured the discontinuities in the lines due to their partial breaking up into components under the influence of the magnetic field between adjacent atoms. The two men applied the same technique to the measurement of the spectra of hydrogen and helium, reproducing the distribution of intensity of some stellar lines in the laboratory for the first time."--Wikipedia (via the Royal Society publishing site, though unattributed) T.R. Merton was also the FIRST "Q" of MI6.…
