And maybe even, not to say hopefully, you will fall<br />
for the fascination of welding while reading. – From<br />
one moment to the next you feel fantastic. Included in a<br />
global community. Closely connected in harmony. You<br />
will feel a pleasantly tingling, aphrodisiac feeling of<br />
connection that will stay with you for a long time. Long<br />
after you have gently closed this book at its end in serene<br />
composure. –<br />
If that’s the case, then hooray! Then my very first emotion<br />
that overcame me back then in Thailand, at the signal<br />
words laser welding, was not only doubly but triply<br />
worthwhile. Because this book, thanks to your added<br />
sense of connection, takes on a hitherto undreamed-of<br />
dimension: a third! Because it is proof that welding also<br />
creates interdisciplinary connections. The best example<br />
is: <strong>Welding</strong> even fulfils children’s dreams! This fantastic<br />
story is also told in this book.<br />

is how the poet of the German Enlightenment, the mastermind<br />
of the new self-confidence of the bourgeoisie,<br />
Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1759 – 1805), wrote it.<br />
“In nature everything is connected with everything<br />
else; everything crosses itself, everything changes<br />
with everything else, everything changes, one into the<br />
other.”<br />
