La obra de mayor éxito del célebre divulgador de la ciencia.

Este libro, que contiene más de doscientas cincuenta ilustraciones a todo color verdaderamente asombrosas, está basado en un programa de trece capítulos que el profesor Carl Sagan realizó para la televisión. Narrado con la proverbial habilidad que tenía para conseguir que las ideas científicas fueran comprensibles y apasionantes, Cosmos trata de la ciencia en su contexto humano más amplio y explica cómo se desarrolla conjuntamente con la civilización.

La obra aborda también el tema de las misiones espaciales destinadas a explorar los planetas más próximos a la Tierra, se ocupa de la antigua Biblioteca de Alejandría, del cerebro humano, de los jeroglíficos egipcios, del origen de la vida, de la muerte del Sol, de la evolución de las galaxias y de los orígenes de la materia, los soles y los mundos.

Nos habla aquí de una evolución cósmica de quince mil millones de años que transformó la materia en vida y consciencia e hizo posible que el Cosmos se interrogara acerca de sí mismo. Se comentan también los descubrimientos sobre la vida fuera de la Tierra y cómo podemos comunicarnos con los habitantes de otros mundos.

Sagan contemplaba nuestro planeta desde un privilegiado punto de vista extraterrestre, y lo veía como un mundo azul habitado por una forma de vida que apenas acaba de descubrir su propia unidad y se aventura en el vasto océano del espacio.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The most successful work of the famous science communicator.

This book, which contains more than two hundred and fifty truly amazing full-color illustrations, is based on a thirteen-part television series that Professor Carl Sagan created for television. Narrated with his proverbial skill for making scientific ideas understandable and exciting, Cosmos deals with science in its broader human context and explains how it develops together with civilization.

The work also addresses the topic of space missions aimed at exploring the planets closest to Earth, delves into the ancient Library of Alexandria, the human brain, Egyptian hieroglyphs, the origin of life, the death of the Sun, the evolution of galaxies, and the origins of matter, suns, and worlds.

It speaks here of a cosmic evolution of fifteen billion years that transformed matter into life and consciousness and made it possible for the Cosmos to question itself. It also comments on discoveries about life beyond Earth and how we can communicate with the inhabitants of other worlds.

Sagan viewed our planet from a privileged extraterrestrial point of view, seeing it as a blue world inhabited by a form of life that has just discovered its own unity and is venturing into the vast ocean of space.

As Advertised.
Color: Boysenberry, Size: 1 inch
The boysenberry color is pretty. The Retrospec mat is odor-free, 7/8” thick (so close enough), dense, and non-slip on my wood floor. I wanted the density to cushion pressure points whilst performing various core exercises and general stretching on the floor. It works well for my purpose. I agree with other commenters, the 1” thick mat is too unstable for yoga. That said, the slight instability makes this mat useful for developing balance and core stability by balancing on uneven surfaces, similar to the benefits of walking on grass or trails. The mat is easily nicked by long nails (human and animal) rocks, sticks etc. so pay attention to where you set it up; however not a deal-breaker for my use. I originally looked at the BalanceFrom GoCloud mat because it is the mat that appears in several online reviews with a link to Amazon. However, once on Amazon, I noticed remarkable similarities between the GoCloud and Retrospec reviews. I suspect both mats are identical just with a different brand name and sold by different companies. I ultimately went with the Retrospec mat because the Retrospec is sold and shipped by Amazon so the benefits and protections of “Amazon Prime”, including free returns, apply. The GoCloud mat could be returned however according to the fine print, if the return wasn’t due to Seller’s error the return might be subject to a restocking fee. One of the most objectionable review comments common to both brands had to do with the mat having a terrible, lingering odor. I was willing to take a chance and order it, but would have returned it if it had a bad odor. I did not want to pay a restocking fee so went with the Retrospec mat sold and shipped by Amazon. One exception is Amazon Prime offers the GoCloud in black only. I didn’t want black because I expect to occasionally use it outside in the Florida sun and it will get really hot.

Quality weights for all fitness levels
Style: 32lb Set, Style: 32lb Set
Why did you pick this product vs others?: Good quality and the stand is very sturdy.  The stand was super easy to put together and it’s held up incredibly well. I’ve used these weights almost every day for the last couple months and they aren’t showing any signs of wear. They are definitely well made were exactly what I was expecting. The stand has been knocked over and dropped many times and it still works and looks as good as the day I put it together. They are very comfortable to hold during workouts and they aren’t slippery when your hands get sweaty. I would definitely recommend these!

Nice weight set for Bar Method
Style: 20lb Set
I do a low impact workout called Bar Method. I love these weights because they match the ones we have in class. They function well. No issues over many workouts. They look nice on my little workout shelf, too. I recycled the stand. Didn't need it. Good value for the weights you get.

Solid Weight Set
Style: 32lb Set, Style: 32lb Set
Pretty solid set of weights. Love that it comes with a little rack. The rack is plastic but for the weights I got (3, 5, 8 lbs) it feels sturdy enough. The texture and quality feel exactly like the weights that the high end Pilates studio I go on occasion uses. Seems durable and easy to keep clean. Would definitely recommend.
