This volume centers on the idea that innovative approaches for energy access can work with previously underutilized or unrecognized resources, as this may lead to circumstances for the development of successful and sustainable energy programs. Such untapped resources may be seen in the discovering of synergies in areas such as pre-existing service infrastructures, supply chain and value chain management, natural resource availability, financing schemes, and leap frog technologies. Additionally, decentralized approaches can contribute to climate change adaptation measures and increase resiliency for vulnerable communities. Of course small-scale solutions have clear limitations in regard to gl...

Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an evidence-based psychotherapy which has been recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a first-choice treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Beyond PTSD, there has been increasing research into its mechanism of action and in the efficacy of EMDR in other psychiatric and somatic disorders with comorbid psychological trauma. The motivation of this research topic was to offer new and innovative research on EMDR across the globe to an increasing number of clinicians and researchers with an interest in this trauma-focused intervention.
Este Dossier central de Telos se dedica a una temática de enorme trascendencia presente y futura para nuestra sociedad: el género y los usos de las TIC. Al igual que en otros ámbitos, en Internet también es posible afirmar la existencia de una brecha de género en detrimento de la mujer en lo que respecta a los usos de la red. Los artículos del dossier muestran algunos ejemplos de ello, al tiempo que alientan a trabajar a favor de la igualdad tecnológica y digital. EL Dossier central, coordinado por Cecilia Castaño, catedrática de Economía Aplicada (Universidad Complutense) y acreditada investigadora en este terreno, se nuclea sobre el call for papers de su autoría publicado en nue...
Veinticinco años después de su fundación (número 0 en noviembre de 1984, número 1 en enero de 1985), la revista Telos aparece no sólo como una referencia clásica sino también y en la actualidad, como una plataforma central de la investigación y el debate de la comunicación y la innovación contemporáneas. Editada por Fundación Telefónica, aborda desde 2005 una etapa de renovación y consolidación que le ha permitido solicitar su entrada en los índices internacionales más prestigiosos en las ciencias sociales y aglutinar en su consejo científico y de redacción a una nutrida representación de los investigadores españoles y extranjeros más destacados en el ámbito de la com...
Si sabem buscar i trobar el sentit de la nostra vida es que hem tingut èxit . La resta només és preparació, diligència i audàcia. Res no provoca més que la realitat, per això, aquest llibre està cuinat des de les experiències personals i compartides dels autors sobre l'evolució de les carreres professionals i el desenvolupament de les organitzacions. Són relats ficció-realitat que tenen com a marc vint trobades gastronòmics en què el diàleg, el debat i la reflexió són la matèria primera del guisat de cada capítol. La seva condició d'observadors sense condicionaments permet ser exegetes d'aquesta realitat i opinar des de la llibertat més desitjable. Els protagonistes, qu...
