Synthesis is a fundamental principle of our life. But in what contexts does synthesis lead to something that is meaningful and valuable? And, generally, is "no synthesis" possible at all - or is there something in the way of "anti-synthesis"- The current issue of fatum addresses these and other questions. The magazine, which is published twice a year, is made by students of the Master's course "Philosophy of Science and Technology". It focuses on current developments at the interface between the natural sciences, technology, the humanities, and social sciences. The new edition: Synthesis. Everywhere, everything is about being interconnected, mixed, intertwined, networked, or dependent on something else - from the smallest elementary particles to neighboring and remote gene complexes in cells, to humans, technologies, knowledge, opinions, and communication systems. The essays, reports, and literary pieces on the topic "Synthesis" were provided by TUM students and lecturers as well as by guest authors from all over the world.
