A Sonata de Deus e o diabolus:
Analisando os pontos de contato entre a música de Villa-Lobos e o cinema de Glauber Rocha, o autor demonstra que nos entraves e dilemas colocados pelos filmes militantes do cineasta ressoam os problemas levantados pelos modernistas de 1922, tanto quanto na obra do grande maestro. Discutindo os idiomas musicais modal e tonal, formas típicas de sociedades distintas, mostra que na história brasileira, bastante chegada ao acomodamento dos contrários, tais idiomas convivem na forma de grande música, mascarando os conflitos de suas origens.
Infectious Tropical Diseases and One Health in Latin America
This book covers current aspects of important infectious diseases affecting human and animal health in Latin American countries. Readers are equipped with details on arthropod vectors as well as on neglected health problems. Diseases covered include Neglected Tropical Diseases such as Chagas Disease, schistosomiasis, tungiasis, myiasis and leishmaniasis, but also Zika and Chikungunya viral infections, plague and yellow fever. One focus is given on parasitic transmission routes. In addition, the authors describe current therapeutic options and sustainable control measures, considering both human and animal health. By highlighting options within the interdisciplinary One Health approach, they round off this work into a cutting-edge reference for diverse expert readers. Scientists and clinicians concerned on public health, entomology, tropical medicine and parasitology not only in Latin America will find this collection particularly valuable. Finally, these contributions are essential in the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals and the targets of SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) in order to combat and end epidemics of Neglected Tropical Diseases.
Perto do coração criança
De acordo com o autor, esta obra tem a pretensão de fazer uma viagem pelo tema da infância na obra de Clarice Lispector. Destaca que entre a vasta bibliografia da escritora foram encontrados pelo menos cinco livros destinados ao público infantil: O mistério do coelho pensante; A mulher que matou os peixes; A vida íntima de Laura; Quase de verdade; além de uma coleção de doze lendas brasileiras Como nasceram as estrelas. Desta forma, este livro levanta questionamentos pertinentes à existência de textos destinados ao público infantil, dentro da obra de uma autora que teve maior relevância na literatura destinada a adultos, além de discutir o possível descaso da crítica, realçando se este aspecto teria conotação valorativa.
Measuring Arthropod Biodiversity
This book brings together a wide range of sampling methods for investigating different arthropod groups. Each chapter is organized to describe and evaluate the main sampling methods (field methods, materials and supplies, sampling protocols, effort needed, and limitations); in addition, some chapters describe the specimen preparation and conservation, species identification, data collection and management (treatment, statistical analysis, interpretation), and ecological/conservation implications of arthropod communities. The book aims to be a reference for zoologists, entomologists, arachnologists, ecologists, students, researchers, and for those interested in arthropod science and biodivers...
Integrating Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development
This book is a truly interdisciplinary publication, useful to scholars, social movements, practitioners and members of governmental agencies and private companies, undertaking research and/or executing projects focusing on social responsibility and sustainability from across the world.Sustainable development has become a matter of central concern to both public institutions and enterprises. Indeed, for many companies, a due emphasis to environmental issues is not only positive from the point of view of environmental gains, but also to the image of the business. Often, but not always, this is reflected in the preparation of formal strategies and programmes, which entail their institutional st...
Madrasta Madrugada
É uma reunião de contos, crônicas e versos urbanos, que busca descrever as relações sociais nas suas complexas formas pitorescas de existir, formatando-se nas maneiras mais obscuras e travessas, as quais os seres que habitam este admirável e mortífero eco sistema, chegando ao ponto de ser psicodélica mente lírico. Estes submundos underground’s, de hábitos e tendências peculiares, onde criam e promovem realidades paralelas para sobreviverem e manterem suas culturas e estilos de vidas, nas madrugadas das metrópoles, a qualquer custo, sobre qualquer pretexto. A moralidade. a ética, os princípios e outros códigos sociais ganham outras conotações... Nem sempre baseadas nos padr...

This book explains, what happens throughout a 24-hour cycle of a day, maps, fact sheets and a plant and animal populations list. This book explains key scientific terms and phrases, includes procedures for scientific observation while the text presents information sequentially.
Giacinto Scelsi
O compositor italiano Giacinto Scelsi (1905-1988) tornou-se um caso particular dentro da música contemporânea. Até a metade do século, utilizou vários sistemas composicionais, sendo que, ao final dos anos 1940, já havia composto dezenas de obras baseadas no atonalismo livre, no dodecafonismo e nos procedimentos estilísticos de Scriabin e do futurismo. No livro, o objetivo principal é deixar que o próprio compositor conte sua trajetória e sua interessante visão sobre arte, música, misticismo e todas as nuances presentes no âmbito desse agradável e misterioso universo.

Mathematical Foundations and Applications of Graph Entropy
This latest addition to the successful Network Biology series presents current methods for determining the entropy of networks, making it the first to cover the recently established Quantitative Graph Theory. An excellent international team of editors and contributors provides an up-to-date outlook for the field, covering a broad range of graph entropy-related concepts and methods. The topics range from analyzing mathematical properties of methods right up to applying them in real-life areas. Filling a gap in the contemporary literature this is an invaluable reference for a number of disciplines, including mathematicians, computer scientists, computational biologists, and structural chemists.
