CONIRIBUTIONS to SCIENCE

摘要

Cover: The Museu Blau in the Forum Park. The Museu Blau (Blue Museum) hosts the new reference exhibition of the Natural History Museum of Barcelona. The building, designed by Herzog & de Meuron for the Universal Forum of the Cultures (Barcelona 2004), has been adapted by the same architects for the new use. In this splendid site of culture and science, a space for knowledge and leisure comparable to the best museums in the world, a balance has been reached between the historical past of the Museum and the progress of science and technology of the 21 st century.
