Voces que cuentan. Diez narradoras ecuatorianas
Esta antología reúne cuentos de diez narradoras ecuatorianas. Son únicamente diez porque se traslada a soporte escrito a las autoras del catálogo de audiocuentos de Mujeres al oído. Las autoras incluidas viven una experiencia literaria plena, han estudiado literatura o tienen formaciones afines, y son periodistas, docentes, editoras, gestoras culturales, etc.; lo cierto es que están inmersas no solo en la escritura, sino también en el quehacer cultural más amplio.
Ecuador en corto, antología de relatos ecuatorianos actuales
La lectura de este volumen supone el descubrimiento de una seductora literatura que, sin embargo, permanece anclada en la periferia. Esta selección abre senderos inéditos al dar a conocer 28 relatos de 28 autores vivos, desde los consagrados como Iván Égüez, Carlos Carrión y Jorge Dávila hasta los más jóvenes como Andrés Cadena y Andrea Armijos, todos los cuales conforman un amplio mosaico clarificador de las tendencias existentes en el país andino, en lo que es un representativo panorama sin claroscuros de una emergente diversidad. Por lo tanto, este libro muestra la geografía de un territorio narrativo, inexplorado hasta hoy, a modo de representativo horizonte de una literatura ecuatoriana sin duda singular, fruto de una creatividad que no debe permanecer invisible más tiempo.
Feminism
We were supposed to be in a 'postfeminist' age. But recently we've seen a resurgence of feminist campaigning among women (and some men). There's a new brand of feminism: young, social media savvy, militant. But there's also a new kind of backlash, driven by so-called fundamentalists and by increasingly overt misogyny. This book takes an international perspective on the new feminist movements.

The Benefits of Natural Products for Neurodegenerative Diseases
Focuses on the effects of natural products and their active components on brain function and neurodegenerative disease prevention. Phytochemicals such as alkaloids, terpenes, flavanoids, isoflavones, saponins etc are known to possess protective activity against many neurological diseases. The molecular mechanisms behind the curative effects rely mainly on the action of phytonutrients on distinct signaling pathways associated with protein folding and neuro-inflammation. The diverse array of bioactive nutrients present in these natural products plays a pivotal role in prevention and cure of various neurodegenerative diseases, disorders, or insults, such as Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Huntington's Disease, traumatic brain injury, and other neuronal dysfunctions. However, the use of these antioxidants in the management of neurodegenerative conditions has so far been not well understood. This is a comprehensive collection addressing the effects on the brain of natural products and edible items such as reservatrol, curcumin, gingerol, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and marine products.
Other People's Stories
In Other People's Stories, Amy Shuman examines the social relations embedded in stories and the complex ethical and social tensions that surround their telling. Drawing on innovative research and contemporary theory, she describes what happens when one person's story becomes another person's source of inspiration, or when entitlement and empathy collide. The resulting analyses are wonderfully diverse, integrating narrative studies, sociolinguistics, communications, folklore, and ethnographic studies to examine the everyday, conversational stories told by cultural groups including Latinas, Jews, African Americans, Italians, and Puerto Ricans. Shuman offers a nuanced and clear theoretical perspective derived from the Frankfurt school, life history research, disability research, feminist studies, trauma studies, and cultural studies. Without compromising complexity, she makes narrative inquiry accessible to a broad population.
Earth's Breath
Cyclonic storms inform the still eye of Earth's Breath. It's an eye that radiates out from the personal to the communal, tracking its subject matter through the lenses of history and myth. Susan Hawthorne's poetry shifts with seismic intensity, from tranquility to roar, bureaucratic inertia to survival, and the slow recovery from destruction to regeneration.
