Perspective Chapter
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are becoming well established as a key component in the integration of renewable energies and in the development of electric vehicles. Nevertheless, they have a narrow safe operating area with regard to the voltage and temperature conditions at which these batteries can work. Outside this area, a series of chemical reactions take place that can lead to component degradation, reduced performance and even self-destruction. The phenomenon consisting of the sudden failure of an LIB, causing an abrupt temperature increase, is known as thermal runaway (TR) and is considered to be the most dangerous event that can occur in LIBs. Therefore, the safety of LIBs is one of t...

Tecnologías disruptivas del proceso de globalización
El fenómeno global y globalizante de las innovaciones disruptivas suele estudiarse desde una óptica meramente técnica. Pero las innovaciones disruptivas son también un fenómeno cultural que reclama una mirada desde la óptica de las humanidades. Aunque el fenómeno `disruptivo' no apareció de repente a finales del siglo pasado, se impone inicialmente un escrutinio detallado del pensamiento económico que encapsuló, a modo de credo, el fenómeno disruptivo como una realidad sui generis del más reciente proceso globalizador. Tal análisis aporta la singular paradoja de que el fenómeno disruptivo carecería de un marco teórico válido que permita no solo explicar, sino anticipar su di...
Alfonso X, the Learned
Recent publications about King Alfonso X have tended to focus on his role as monarch in the context of the institutions of the realm. This book, however, emphasizes the human dimension of this extraordinary figure. Drawing on King Alfonso’s own works and on extensive archival sources, both well-known and neglected, Salvador Martínez brings to life a king who valued the possession of knowledge above all earthly riches. The "Learned King" left a vast legacy of work, which would influence developments in both Spain and Europe, most significantly in the transfer of knowledge from the Arabs to the Christian West. With his intellectual curiosity and his pursuit of wisdom, Alfonso X is a towering figure at the origins of modernity.

Grotesque Purgatory
Cervantes's great novel Don Quixote is a diptych, the first part of which was published in 1605 and the second in 1615. Focusing almost entirely on the novel's second part, Henry W. Sullivan is the first critic to offer a systematic account of Don Quixote's passage from madness to sanity. Sullivan argues that Part II of the novel is a salvation epic, within which the Cave of Montesinos episode is the single most important pivot in the Knight's confrontation with his own emotional difficulties. In this carefully researched and challenging study, Sullivan shows that chapters 22-24 (the Cave of Montesinos episode) represent an entrance into Purgatory, while chapter 55 is the exit from this real...
