Cyfrifir Ludwig Wittgenstein gan lawer yn athrylith hynotaf yr ugeinfed ganrif mewn athroniaeth. Y mae hefyd yn unigryw yn ei faes gan iddo greu nid un athroniaeth ond dwy, y ddwy yn wreiddiol, dylanwadol a gwrthgyferbyniol. Ceisir yn y gyfrol hon esbonio mewn iaith seml ei ddau safbwynt sydd i'w gweld yn Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus ac yn yr Ymchwiliadau Athronyddol.

The role of stem cells in cardiac tissue regeneration: evaluating treatments and identifying risk
This article evaluates the potential of a range of stem cells in cardiac tissue regeneration following a heart attack. Following an initial review of relevant research, some of the main biological mechanisms involved in cardiac tissue regeneration are presented, including: the role of transcription factors, such as oxytocin and c-kit and paracrine transcription factors; studies on zebra fish that display mechanisms such as the regnerative role of cardionogen 1, 2- and 3- in reversing the effect of induced cardiac phenotypes that normally regulate heart development; delivery and engraftment mechanisms, including viral and plasmid vectors, electrical stimulation and nantoechnology. The results of in vitro and in vivo experiments are reported that have shown the clinical potential of stem cells as well as their immunological and tumorgenic risks. At the time of writing (2012), while the clinical evidence is limited, complex therapeutic models are proposed for future development in the field.

Cynhadledd ‘Boddi mewn Celfyddyd’: Gwaddol ’65
Hanner can mlynedd ar ôl boddi Tryweryn, trefnwyd cynhadledd i gasglu ynghyd a gwerthfawrogi’r gwaddol celfyddydol a ysbrydolwyd gan foddi’r cwm mewn cynhadledd deuddydd mewn lleoliad arbennig nid nepell o Dryweryn. Yn ystod y gynhadledd, traddodwyd darlithoedd gan Dafydd Iwan a Manon Eames, a chafwyd arddangosfa aml-gyfrwng unigryw yn dogfennu hanes y boddi, a’r cynnyrch celfyddydol a grëwyd yn ei sgil. Cafwyd hefyd gyfle i ymweld â Thryweryn a chlywed am brofiadau ac atgofion Aeron Prysor Jones am foddi’r cwm, yn ogystal â mwynhau detholiad o’r ddrama Porth y Byddar gan Manon Eames, o dan gyfarwyddyd Siwan Llynor. Noddwyd y gynhadledd gan y Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol a Phrifysgol Bangor.
Renewable community energy: A review of the current situation and future possibilities of this unique sector
The renewable energy sector is growing as states aim to curtail their carbon emissions and establish a more sustainable strategy to generate energy. Despite this, there are arguments that large-scale renewable energy developments do not contribute towards community sustainability and local economies. According to recent research, community energy projects – renewable energy projects that are part or fully owned by a geographically distinct community – are seen as a means of generating energy in a way that is more sympathetic, equitable and sustainable. This article reviews the current literature that debates the benefits and obstacles facing the community energy sector.
Bilingual education in the twenty-first century: A review of the international context
With the publication of its Welsh-medium Education Strategy in April 2010, the Welsh Assembly Government recognised the leading role of Welsh-medium education in the field of bilingual education throughout Europe and the world during the last fifty years. As the system further develops with increasing numbers of pupils choosing bilingual education in Wales, it is emphasised that it is important to be aware of the patterns and models available in other bilingual communities that successfully integrate bilingualism or multilingualism into their provision so that we can understand their relevance to our particular situation in Wales. This article gives an overview of the most recent developments in bilingual education in an international context and considers the important issues that emerge as this type of education continues to develop to cater for the needs of pupils in bilingual and multilingual communities throughout the world in the twenty-first century.
