Escritos que representan la incursión de Elizondo en el periodismo, y constituyen una brillante práctica en su sentido más lato: razonar y analizar a la luz de los conocimientos teóricos y circunstancias personales que definen la condición humana. Las instituciones sociales, la educación, los valores, el arte, la literatura y algunos de sus autores definitivos para la historia, son, entre otros, objeto de las disquisiciones del autor.

Reflexiones sobre la relatividad del tiempo, la metafísica y el amor. Definición y teoría del tiempo absoluto y subjetivo. Libros de Física Moderna y teoría del todo. Nuevos conceptos de Física Global en teoría de la gravedad. En este libro se mezclan las perspectivas de la ciencia y la metafísica, además de la introducción sobre la relatividad del amor se comentan las diferentes definiciones de tiempo, destacando el origen subjetivo del concepto y los eternos intentos por conseguir una noción común y objetiva del mismo. Se estudia el tiempo relativista y la concepción personal del tiempo en metafísica y su línea del tiempo como algo real y subjetivo en contraposición al carácter imaginario del tiempo en la Física Moderna. Otro apartado se centra en la Ecuación del Amor, la gravedad de Newton y sus interrelaciones con la Física Moderna, en especial con la ecuación de la equivalencia masa-energía de Einstein. En otras palabras, la nueva teoría intenta reponer en el ámbito de la filosofía la correcta dualidad de la realidad subjetiva y objetiva, separándolas de otras realidades digamos imaginarias, que entorpecen el desarrollo científico.

The Metaphysics presents Aristotle's mature rejection of both the Platonic theory that what we perceive is just a pale reflection of reality and the hardheaded view that all processes are ultimately material. He argued instead that the reality or substance of things lies in their concrete forms, and in so doing he probed some of the deepest questions of philosophy: What is existence? How is change possible? And are there certain things that must exist for anything else to exist at all? The seminal notions discussed in The Metaphysics - of 'substance' and associated concepts of matter and form, essence and accident, potentiality and actuality - have had a profound and enduring influence, and laid the foundations for one of the central branches of Western philosophy.

An incredible season for algebraic geometry flourished in Italy between 1860, when Luigi Cremona was assigned the chair of Geometria Superiore in Bologna, and 1959, when Francesco Severi published the last volume of the treatise on algebraic systems over a surface and an algebraic variety. This century-long season has had a prominent influence on the evolution of complex algebraic geometry - both at the national and international levels - and still inspires modern research in the area. "Algebraic geometry in Italy between tradition and future" is a collection of contributions aiming at presenting some of these powerful ideas and their connection to contemporary and, if possible, future developments, such as Cremonian transformations, birational classification of high-dimensional varieties starting from Gino Fano, the life and works of Guido Castelnuovo, Francesco Severi's mathematical library, etc. The presentation is enriched by the viewpoint of various researchers of the history of mathematics, who describe the cultural milieu and tell about the bios of some of the most famous mathematicians of those times.

What is the relation between time and change? Does time depend on the mind? Is the present always the same or is it always different? Aristotle tackles these questions in the Physics, and Time for Aristotle is the first book in English devoted to this discussion. Aristotle claims that time is not a kind of change, but that it is something dependent on change; he defines it as a kind of 'number of change'. Ursula Coope argues that what this means is that time is a kind of order (not, as is commonly supposed, a kind of measure). It is universal order within which all changes are related to each other. This interpretation enables Coope to explain two puzzling claims that Aristotle makes: that the now is like a moving thing, and that time depends for its existence on the mind. Brilliantly lucid in its explanation of this challenging section of the Physics, Time for Aristotle shows his discussion to be of enduring philosophical interest.
