Experts Plebäski and Krasi¿ski provide a thorough introduction to the tools of general relativity and relativistic cosmology. Assuming familiarity with advanced calculus, classical mechanics, electrodynamics and special relativity, the text begins with a short course on differential geometry, taking a unique top-down approach. Starting with general manifolds on which only tensors are defined, the covariant derivative and affine connection are introduced before moving on to geodesics and curvature. Only then is the metric tensor and the (pseudo)-Riemannian geometry introduced, specialising the general results to this case. The main text describes relativity as a physical theory, with applications to astrophysics and cosmology. It takes the reader beyond traditional courses on relativity through in-depth descriptions of inhomogeneous cosmological models and the Kerr metric. Emphasis is given to complete and clear derivations of the results, enabling readers to access research articles published in relativity journals.

Carbon dioxide has great importance as a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere and as a carbonic acid system in water. Since the CO2 in the two spheres of air and water is connected by gas exchange, these spheres cannot be considered separately. The basics of the systems are covered, the role as a greenhouse gas, the carbon cycles, and the solution in water. The carbonic acid system in water and the importance of lime are presented in detail. The occurrence in the natural water cycle as well as in raw waters for drinking water treatment and the corresponding treatment processes for drinking water are also described.Sample calculations for the aqueous phase supplement the theoretical considerations. The required constants are attached in tables. Chemical fundamentals are presented in brief in conclusion.

Since ancient Greece the human being seeks the Truth of things outside himself, in the world and in its context of the world. In the twenty-first century, humanity is rescuing the teachings of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle in search of self-knowledge. Is it possible to discern from the arguments of Gorgias (the sophist), who defended the impossibility of knowledge in a stable and definitive sense? "There is nothing that can be known; if it could be known it could not be communicated; if it could be communicated it could not be understood." Consequently, the arguments of Gorgias (the sophist) have become obsolete and unfounded, as can be seen in this psychology essay. Based on the conceptions congruent to the ideas of other authors from different disciplines, the academic, interdisciplinary discussions are part of the and different scientific scenarios. Psychology seeks some solution to bring together the fragmentation of knowledge, from the passage from mythical to philosophical-scientific thought, in search of a cure for their patients. Part of this solution is presented and analyzed in this psychology essay. Therefore, it is the duty of Esoteric Psychology to use its philosophical-scientific knowledge, with its theoretical-methodological orientations on the World of Ideas to present in the best possible way the lessons that the World of the Senses should teach us.

Desde la antigua Grecia el ser humano busca la Verdad de las cosas fuera de sí mismo, en el mundo y en su contexto mundial. En el siglo XXI, la humanidad está rescatando las enseñanzas de Sócrates, Platón y Aristóteles en busca del autoconocimiento. ¿Es posible discernir de los argumentos de Gorgias (el sofista), que defendía la imposibilidad del conocimiento en un sentido estable y definitivo? "No hay nada que se pueda saber; si pudiera conocerse, no podría comunicarse; Si se podía comunicar, no se podía entender". En consecuencia, los argumentos de Gorgias (el sofista) se han vuelto obsoletos e infundados, como se puede ver en este ensayo de psicología. Debido a las concepciones congruentes con las ideas de otros autores de diferentes disciplinas, las discusiones académicas e interdisciplinarias forman parte de diferentes escenarios científicos. La psicología ha buscado durante mucho tiempo alguna solución para reunir la fragmentación del conocimiento, del paso del pensamiento mítico al filosófico-científico, en busca de una cura para sus pacientes. Parte de esta solución se presenta y analiza en este ensayo de psicología. Por lo tanto, es deber de la Psicología Esotérica utilizar su conocimiento filosófico-científico, con sus orientaciones teórico-metodológicas sobre el Mundo de las Ideas para presentar de la mejor manera posible las lecciones que el Mundo de los Sentidos debe enseñarnos.

Há tempos a psicologia busca alguma solução para reunir a fragmentação do conhecimento, desde a passagem do pensamento mítico ao filosófico-científico, em busca da cura para seus pacientes. Parte dessa solução é apresentada e analisada neste ensaio de psicologia. Portanto é dever da Psicologia Esotérica usar seu conhecimento filosófico-científico, com suas orientações teórico-metodológicas sobre o Mundo das Ideias para apresentar da melhor maneira possível as lições que o Mundo dos Sentidos deve nos ensinar.
