Dentro Del Cubo / Inside the Cube
In our universe, we are able to move in three directions: left-right, forward-behind, above-below. Furthermore, everything has width, length, and depth: we live in a universe with three spatial dimensions. Can we go outside this universe? With a highly entertaining style, this book allows us to delve into extraordinary spatial dimensions that we can perceive, reproduce, and imagine.

Presents key concepts of physics in hilarious everyday situations, drawing in young readers while offering an understandable and fun introduction to physics.
Ciencia y Sociedad: pinceladas
En este libro se recogen las contribuciones de una constelación de autores que, desde su práctica científica cotidiana, han dedicado importantes esfuerzos para señalar y advertir, tanto a sus colegas de profesión como al público en general, sobre la naturaleza social de la ciencia y la responsabilidad social del científico. El quehacer científico no es ideologicamente neutro, nunca lo ha sido y nunca lo será. En los conceptos científicos que se desarrollan y construyen históricamente está embutida una visión social particular y una ideología llena de preconceptos. El científico promedio tiende a ignorar las consecuencias del tipo particular de ciencia que desarrolla. Este libro pretende advertir sobre algunos de los peligros que se derivan de ello, así como promover acciones coherentes con dichas reflexiones.

The study covers eight thematic areas: supplying seed, registering fertilizer, securing water, registering machinery, sustaining livestock, protecting plant health, trading food and accessing finance. The report highlights global best performers and countries that made the most significant regulatory improvements in support of farmers.
Innovations for Next-Generation Antibody-Drug Conjugates
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) stand at the verge of a transformation. Scores of clinical programs have yielded only a few regulatory approvals, but a wave of technological innovation now empowers us to overcome past technical challenges. This volume focuses on the next generation of ADCs and the innovations that will enable them. The book inspires the future by integrating the field’s history with novel strategies and cutting-edge technologies. While the book primarily addresses ADCs for solid tumors, the last chapter explores the emerging interest in using ADCs to treat other diseases. The therapeutic rationale of ADCs is strong: to direct small molecules to the desired site of action (...
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

The book does not emphasize any particular programming language or suite of data-analysis tools, focusing instead on high-level discussion of important design principles. This easy...
The Myth of Quetzalcoatl
In this comprehensive study, Enrique Florescano traces the spread of the worship of the Plumed Serpent, and the multiplicity of interpretations that surround him, by comparing the Palenque inscriptions (ca. A.D. 690), the Vienna Codex (pre-Hispanic Conquest), the Historia de los Mexicanos (1531), the Popul Vuh (ca. 1554), and numerous other texts. He also consults and reproduces archeological evidence from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, and Nicaragua, demonstrating how the myth of Quetzalcoatl extends throughout Mesoamerica.
