Comprehensive Organic Chemistry Experiments for the Laboratory Classroom
This expansive and practical textbook contains organic chemistry experiments for teaching in the laboratory at the undergraduate level covering a range of functional group transformations and key organic reactions.The editorial team have collected contributions from around the world and standardized them for publication. Each experiment will explore a modern chemistry scenario, such as: sustainable chemistry; application in the pharmaceutical industry; catalysis and material sciences, to name a few. All the experiments will be complemented with a set of questions to challenge the students and a section for the instructors, concerning the results obtained and advice on getting the best outcome from the experiment. A section covering practical aspects with tips and advice for the instructors, together with the results obtained in the laboratory by students, has been compiled for each experiment. Targeted at professors and lecturers in chemistry, this useful text will provide up to date experiments putting the science into context for the students.

Luso-Tropicalism and Its Discontents
Modern perceptions of race across much of the Global South are indebted to the Brazilian social scientist Gilberto Freyre, who in works such as The Masters and the Slaves claimed that Portuguese colonialism produced exceptionally benign and tolerant race relations. This volume radically reinterprets Freyre’s Luso-tropicalist arguments and critically engages with the historical complexity of racial concepts and practices in the Portuguese-speaking world. Encompassing Brazil as well as Portuguese-speaking societies in Africa, Asia, and even Portugal itself, it places an interdisciplinary group of scholars in conversation to challenge the conventional understanding of twentieth-century racialization, proffering new insights into such controversial topics as human plasticity, racial amalgamation, and the tropes and proxies of whiteness.
The Oxford Handbook of the Phoenician and Punic Mediterranean
The Phoenicians created the Mediterranean world as we know it-yet they remain a poorly understood group. In this Handbook, the first of its kind in English, readers will find expert essays covering the history, culture, and areas of settlement throughout the Phoenician and Punic world.
Urgência afirmativa
Há mais de dois anos, o mundo enfrenta o desafio de reaprender a viver, num processo de adaptação à virtualidade. Uma transformação que, para diversos cientistas da comunicação, acelerou o processo de virtualização dos seres humanos e de suas relações para com o outro e, obviamente, com os meios de comunicação. Sem dúvida, testemunhamos uma reconfiguração do ecossistema midiático. Com esse tema norteador às conferências, realizamos o 5º Congresso Internacional Media Ecology and Image Studies – MEISTUDIES, que contou com o tema “A virtualização do novo ecossistema midiático”. O evento também foi marcado pela realização paralela do VI Seminário Internacional R...

Urban Constellations
Cities are an unprecedented focus of attention: over half the world now lives in them, culture and politics are shaped by them, and they are also focal points for new relationships between nature, technology and the human body. This essay collection brings together a range of cutting-edge international scholarship on cities, urbanisation and urban culture. The format of the collection is a series of small essays in the spirit of Benjamin, Kracauer and other innovative forms of writing and observation. The collection explores themes such as new forms of political mobilisation, the effects of economic instability, the political ecology of urban nature and the presence of collective memory. Cultural aspects of urban change are also considered including the work of artists, film makers and others, who have sought to critically engage with processes of urban change. The global scope of the collection includes essays in Berlin, Chicago and London, as well as less extensivily studied citites such as Chennai, Jakarta and Lagos.
Pano, pau e pão
A escravidão de africanos na colônia portuguesa da América foi a mais volumosa e duradoura do Ocidente. Ao partir da tríade pano, pau e pão, imortalizada pelo inaciano setecentista Andreoni (Antonil), a historiadora Ana Carolina de Carvalho Viotti descortina alguns dos consensos fundamentais estabelecidos à época sobre o trato dos escravos. A escravidão parece, quando vista dos séculos XX, XXI, tão bárbara, tão brutal e cruel que custa-nos crer que se tratava, para a sociedade que se consolidou na América Portuguesa ao longo dos séculos XVI, XVII e XVIII, de uma prática familiar, estável e, sobretudo, bastante regulada. É isto que vem nos lembrar este instigante Pano, Pau e Pão: Escravos no Brasil Colônia. A escravidão, ao contrário do que frequentemente a indignação e um certo anacronismo nos levam a pensar, não é o reino do arbítrio, do imprevisível e do capricho do senhor; na verdade, a escravidão tinha regras estáveis. Este livro é uma porta de entrada para esse universo de regras e prescrições que tornou tão previsível, natural e prosaica uma forma de vida que, aos olhos contemporâneos, parece irracional, instável e quase inumana.
