Experiencias y testimonios etnohistóricos
Cuando se culmina un proyecto de investigación antropológica o histórica, pocas veces se conoce la información sobre su origen y desarrollo, o las circunstancias y experiencias personales y profesionales de sus autores, desde el inicio del proceso de su elaboración hasta la redacción final del libro. Esta obra es un verdadero testimonio de las vivencias de cada uno de los protagonistas.
Etnohistoria y multidisciplina
Las investigaciones aquí presentadas tienen el objetivo de destacar que la etnohistoria es un campo multidisciplinario que se plantea analizar los procesos de cambio de las sociedades. Este primer tomo integra estudios sobre códices, manuscritos, pictografía y glifos, para el desarrollo de este análisis se dispusieron fuentes de la época prehispánica y otras de la época colonial.

Ritualidad Y Cosmovisión En La Fiesta Patronal Del Señor Santiago En Juxtlahuaca (Mixteca Baja)
En esta obra se pretende descubrir como se entrelazaron los símbolos religiosos cristianos y “paganos” en la fiesta patronal del Señor Santiago en Juxtlahuaca durante el Periodo Virreinal. Y como esto dio lugar a un significado simbólico diferente, en la percepción indígena de los santos cristianos a los que les ofrecían sangre de guajolotes u otros animales. Esta tradición se conserva y reproduce anualmente. Interpretamos la mentalidad religiosa y bélica de los indígenas ñuu dzavui del Virreinato, analizando la parafernalia de la celebración y especialmente los diálogos de la obra teatral dancística que ellos llaman Los Chareos. La obra debió ser introducida cuando los fra...
X-Ray Charge Densities and Chemical Bonding
This book deals with the electron density distribution in molecules and solids as obtained experimentally by X-ray diffraction. It is a comprehensive treatment of the methods involved, and the interpretation of the experimental results in terms of chemical bonding and intermolecular interactions. Inorganic and organic solids, as well as metals, are covered in the chapters dealing with specific systems. As a whole, this monograph is especially appealing because of its broad interface with numerous disciplines. Accurate X-ray diffraction intensities contain fundamental information on the charge distribution in crystals, which can be compared directly with theoretical results, and used to derive other physical properties, such as electrostatic moments, the electrostatic potential and lattice energies, which are accessible by spectroscopic and thermodynamic measurements. Consequently, the work will be of great interest to a broad range of crystallographers and physical scientists.
Hollywood Highbrow
Today's moviegoers and critics generally consider some Hollywood products--even some blockbusters--to be legitimate works of art. But during the first half century of motion pictures very few Americans would have thought to call an American movie "art." Up through the 1950s, American movies were regarded as a form of popular, even lower-class, entertainment. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, viewers were regularly judging Hollywood films by artistic criteria previously applied only to high art forms. In Hollywood Highbrow, Shyon Baumann for the first time tells how social and cultural forces radically changed the public's perceptions of American movies just as those forces were radically chan...
Terrorism and the Electric Power Delivery System
The electric power delivery system that carries electricity from large central generators to customers could be severely damaged by a small number of well-informed attackers. The system is inherently vulnerable because transmission lines may span hundreds of miles, and many key facilities are unguarded. This vulnerability is exacerbated by the fact that the power grid, most of which was originally designed to meet the needs of individual vertically integrated utilities, is being used to move power between regions to support the needs of competitive markets for power generation. Primarily because of ambiguities introduced as a result of recent restricting the of the industry and cost pressure...

Changing Cuba-U.S. Relations
This book analyses the evolving engagement of the United States and Cuba, along with the impact of this relationship on Cuba-CARICOM relations and the Caribbean. Through a Caribbean perspective, the chapters discuss the implications of the U.S.-Cuba relationship economically, institutionally and developmentally. Based on the findings of their research, the authors provide policy recommendations to CARICOM on potential areas for enhancing relations between CARICOM and Cuba, drawing on fieldwork and interviews with policymakers, academics, non-governmental organizations, and regional experts.
