Agroforestry systems have been touted as sustainable production systems that alleviate many of the environmental problems associated with modern production systems. Are they indeed ecologically and economically sustainable? Using case studies from around the globe, this book highlights the potential of agroforestry systems to produce a broad range of commodities. In addition to addressing the biophysical and socioeconomic dimensions of producing traditional food, fodder and fiber crops, this volume examines the potential to integrate biomass crops, botanicals and ornamental plants into agroforestry practices. The book should be particularly useful to students, professionals, researchers and policy makers involved in natural resource management, agroforestry, and environmental management.

Com uma produção virtuosa, especialmente entre as décadas de 1940 a 1970, nomes como Joaquim Tenreiro, Sergio Rodrigues, Lina Bo Bardi, José Zanine Caldas, Oscar Niemeyer e Jorge Zalszupin elevaram o móvel moderno brasileiro à condição de importante expressão de nossa atividade cultural. As composições precisas do fotógrafo Ruy Teixeira acentuam o apuro estético deste conjunto de peças, desvelando sucessivas camadas de interpretação e fruição para os apreciadores, seja pelo lastro histórico de cada peça ou pelo recorte promovido pelas coleções retratadas e seus cenários contemporâneos. Em paralelo, o texto do historiador Jayme Vargas conduz o leitor pela pulsante e incerta história do modernismo brasileiro, sintetizando de forma elucidativa ponto a ponto desta história tão impregnada em nosso imaginário, mas muitas vezes, ainda pouco conhecida.

City of God

The searing novel on which the internationally acclaimed hit film was based. “A Scarface-like urban epic . . . punctuated with lyricism and longing” (Publishers Weekly). City of God is a gritty, gorgeous tour de force from one of Brazil’s most notorious slums. Cidade de Deus: a place where the streets are awash with narcotics, where violence can erupt at any moment over drugs, money, and love—but also a place where the samba beat rocks till dawn, where the women are the most beautiful on earth, and where one young man wants to escape his background and become a photographer. When City of God erupted on screens worldwide, it became one of the most critically and commercially successfu...
