Abrigamos florestas exuberantes, extenso litoral, as peculiaridades da Caatinga, as aves do Pantanal a beleza tortuosa do Cerrado.

As espécies nativas têm grande potencial para satisfazer essas exigências e gerar riquezas, pois, ao estimular o consumo desses...

This edition of The State of the World’s Forests (SOF...

The essays in this collection provide a coherent perspective on the comparative history of European colonialism in the Americas through their treatment of four central themes: the gendered implications of life on colonial frontiers; non-European women's relationships to Christian institutions; the implications of race-mixing; and social networks established by women of various ethnicities in the colonial context. Geographic regions covered include the Caribbean, Brazil, English America, and New France.
Ecology of Wildlife Diseases in the Neotropics
This contributed volume focuses on the Neotropical region, and explores the environmental, ecological and socio-economic components that facilitate the emergence of zoonotic diseases. This book highlights the primary ecological, environmental, social, and economic variables associated with the risk of maintenance, transmission, and dissemination of emerging, re-emerging, and neglected infectious diseases, in which Neotropical vertebrates are involved.

The chapters include various examples of the cycles of infectious diseases, all with world-wide relevance where neotropical wild vertebrates are affected or involved.
