Economia, Estado e sociedade
Este livro é fruto dos debates realizados no II Seminário de Pensamento Social Brasileiro – intelectuais, cultura e democracia, cujos autores, gentilmente, se dispuseram a encarar o desafio de compartilhar suas reflexões com público mais amplo, agora em formato de livro.
Caatinga
This book provides in-depth information on Caatinga’s geographical boundaries and ecological systems, including plants, insects, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. It also discusses the major threats to the region’s socio-ecological systems and includes chapters on climate change and fast and large-scale land-use changes, as well as slow and small-scale changes, also known as chronic human disturbances. Subsequent chapters address sustainable agriculture, conservation systems, and sustainable development. Lastly, the book proposes 10 major actions that could enable the transformation of Caatinga into a place where people and nature can thrive together. “I consider this b...
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.
Functional Properties of Advanced Engineering Materials and Biomolecules
This book shows how a small toolbox of experimental techniques, physical chemistry concepts as well as quantum/classical mechanics and statistical methods can be used to understand, explain and even predict extraordinary applications of these advanced engineering materials and biomolecules. It highlights how improving the material foresight by design, including the fundamental understanding of their physical and chemical properties, can provide new technological levels in the future.
Os Andrades
Essa é a versão original, escrita por Francisco de Andrade Barroso (Valmir) e reeditada por mim Orlando Andrade, como forma de manter viva a chama da família Andrade e a memória de Valmir. Nele encontrarás a história dessa família e sua genealogia, bem como de muitas outras famílias históricas do Ceará (Limas, Bonfins, Correias, Pinheiros, Pereiras, etc.).
Essential Oils
Over the centuries humans have used essential oils in the most diverse applications, mainly medicinal, and as sources of bioactive molecules. They have been used in different industrial sectors, such as the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, cosmetics and more recently in the food industry. Due to new research in the field of food science and technology, new sources of bioactive compounds have been described, as they have been shown to be a viable alternative for applications in biofilms, nano emulsions, natural antioxidants, control of microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria and protozoa that can be pathological for human health. The use of essential oils in food science and technology ...
Patrimônio Paleontológico do Piauí
A obra Patrimônio Paleontológico do Piauí: os fósseis como testemunhos do passado é resultado de quatro longos anos de pesquisa, e evidencia, de forma textual e imagética, o potencial fossilífero nato do Piauí. O livro apresenta os fósseis como elementos da geodiversidade; conta a história da paleontologia no estado, perpassando viagens de naturalistas/especialistas em áreas das geociências e o envolvimento de várias instituições, como a Companhia de Navegação do Parnaíba; revela, ainda, fontes históricas inéditas, além de destacar a participação feminina nas pesquisas. O leitor conhecerá a diversidade dos grupos de organismos fósseis encontrados no Piauí e a atual ...
