«La ciencia de los superhéroes» is the popular science essay by Juan Scaliter, published by Robinbook in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
The book examines the powers of more than sixty comic-book superheroes and villains in the light of physics, separating the scientifically plausible from the fantastic. Science has already achieved some of these feats, such as recovering memories from a dead brain, creating new elements (Wolverine's adamantium) or a serum to create superathletes.
Originally published in 2011 in the Ciencia Ma Non Troppo collection, with flaps and illustrations.
For comic-book fans and popular science readers who want to check which powers have a real basis.
