Una de las principales aportaciones del enfoque sistémico ha sido el salir del paradigma positivista, enfocado en los diagnósticos intrapsíquicos, migrando a la revisión de la comunicación humana, presente en las interacciones de los elementos que integran al sistema y el contexto en el cual se presentan. La presente obra, la cual conjunta trabajos nacionales de investigación en terapia sistémica, tuvo como objetivo exponer diversas experiencias académicas y profesionales, de tal manera que, a través de la lectura, se propiciara y tejiera de manera colaborativa un espacio de divulgación de la ciencia y el quehacer del terapeuta sistémico. Y a su vez, permitan visualizar el campo d...
The book Online Virality, edited by Valérie Schafer and Fred Pailler (C2DH, University of Luxembourg), aims to provide a comprehensive examination of online virality. It explores the many ways we can think about this modern phenomenon and analyse the circulation, reception, and evolution of viral born-digital content. Virality and content sharing always intertwine material, infrastructural, visual and discursive elements. This involves various platforms, stakeholders, intermediaries, social groups and communities that are constantly (re)defining themselves. Regulation, curation and content moderation politics, as well as affects and emotions (fears, humour, empathy, hatred...), are also at ...
Natural language processing (NLP) is a branch of artificial intelligence that has emerged as a prevalent method of practice for a sizeable amount of companies. NLP enables software to understand human language and process complex data that is generated within businesses. In a competitive market, leading organizations are showing an increased interest in implementing this technology to improve user experience and establish smarter decision-making methods. Research on the application of intelligent analytics is crucial for professionals and companies who wish to gain an edge on the opposition. The Handbook of Research on Natural Language Processing and Smart Service Systems is a collection of ...
This book is a collection of fascinating contributions from research experts around the world and their studies on monkeys, their brains, behaviours, endocrinology, diseases that pose potential threats to our species and the evolution of hormonal genes. If "humans are like onions -- made of layers", as said by the character in the movie Shrek, monkeys are perhaps made of the same layers, except for the outermost. Thus, we share most of our genetics, physiology and pathology with them, in addition to our behaviour and social conduct. These great similarities, particularly in metabolic aspects, are thoroughly documented by the authors that close the book which describes the baboon as just an e...
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
The book on Trends in Quorum Sensing and Quorum Quenching: New Perspectives and Applications focuses on the recent advances in the field of quorum sensing in bacteria and the novel strategies developed for quorum sensing inhibition. The topics covered are multidisciplinary and wide-ranging,and includes quorum sensing phenomenon in pathogenic bacteria, food spoilers, and agriculturally relevant bacteria. The applications of quorum sensing inhibitors such as small molecules, bioactives, natural compounds, and quorum quenching enzymes in controlling bacterial infections in clinical settings, agriculture and aquaculture are discussed. The potential use of quorum quenching enzymes for mitigating ...
Este libro está llamado a convertirse en un aporte indispensable para reevaluar las características del sistema político chileno. Novedoso, audaz, erudito y bien escrito, desmitifica las relaciones entre la sociedad y los partidos políticos en Chile durante el siglo XX, tradicionalmente consideradas de raigambre ideológica. Sin descartar por completo esto, nos muestra que el clientelismo ha sido una práctica de larga data en el país y que además, ha sido capaz de adaptarse a partir de la década de 1990 a la crisis de representación de los partidos, alojándose fuertemente en los gobiernos locales.
This book presents the latest developments concerning techniques, tools, and methodologies in supply chain ecosystems. It gathers contributions from a variety of experts, who analyze a range of case studies and industrial sectors such as manufacturing, energy, agricultural, healthcare, humanitarian logistics, and urban goods distribution, to name but a few. The book is chiefly intended to meet the needs of two sectors: firstly, the academic sector, so as to familiarize students, professors, and researchers with the tools that are now being used to optimize supply chains; and secondly, the industrial and managerial sector, so that supply chain management practitioners can benefit from methods and tools that are yielding valuable results in other contexts.
The authors analyze the ownership and use of income-generating assets, as well as access to them. Where there are market imperfections, they propose policies to ease the constraints faced by the poor in accumulating the human, physical and social capital they need to generate greater income."--BOOK JACKET.
