La verticalización de la vida urbana: la configuración del orden socioespacial de Bogotá a partir de la introducción de la vivienda en altura

Dimensionar y comprender el orden socioespacial que rige a la ciudad implica reconocer que el principal elemento que en la actualidad lo redirecciona —la producción residencial— está estrechamente relacionado con el fenómeno de la distribución de la segmentación residencial. En Bogotá, las primeras manifestaciones de un orden urbano segmentado se desarrollaron desde la primera mitad del siglo XX y, desde entonces, sus escalas de intensidad se han moldeado para evidenciar una diferenciación social en los espacios residenciales, la cual ha sido perpetuada por la escala de disponibilidad económica. Este orden ha emergido no solo a partir de las prácticas de quienes construyen y distribuyen su oferta residencial por la ciudad, ya que se ha dado proporcionalmente con el encuentro con los intereses de la demanda, es decir, la configuración del orden socioespacial de Bogotá proviene, a lo largo de su historia, de la simultaneidad de movimientos, trayectorias residenciales y estrategias de localización tanto de las familias como del mercado inmobiliario.

Food Safety Culture

Food safety awareness is at an all time high, new and emerging threats to the food supply are being recognized, and consumers are eating more and more meals prepared outside of the home. Accordingly, retail and foodservice establishments, as well as food producers at all levels of the food production chain, have a growing responsibility to ensure that proper food safety and sanitation practices are followed, thereby, safeguarding the health of their guests and customers. Achieving food safety success in this changing environment requires going beyond traditional training, testing, and inspectional approaches to managing risks. It requires a better understanding of organizational culture and ...

Organic Geochemistry

For many years, the subject matter encompassed by the title of this book was largely limited to those who were interested in the two most economically important organic materials found buried in the Earth, namely, coal and petroleum. The point of view of any discussions which might occur, either in scientific meetings or in books that have been written, was, therefore, dominated largely by these interests. A great change has occurred in the last decade. This change had as its prime mover our growing knowledge of the molecular architecture of biological systems which, in turn, gave rise to a more legitimate asking of the question: "How did life come to be on the surface of the Earth?" A second motivation arose when the possibilities for the exploration of planets other than the Earth-the moon, Mars, and other parts of the solar system-became a reality. Thus the question of the possible existence of life elsewhere than on Earth conceivably could be answered.

The Metabolic Miracle

We all like to eat, but we are doing it wrong, and it gets worse every day. Deceived by the food industry, advertising, culinary fake news, and Aunt Bertha's nutrition advice, with every bite we are making nefarious decisions that steal our energy and make us both ill and fat. How can we stop this cycle? Who should we believe? How can we change our habits without becoming rigid and boring? In this book, renowned doctor Carlos Jaramillo offers robust answers to these questions and states that the key to optimal weight and health is our metabolism. Understanding what it is, how it operates, and what we can do to make it work in our favor is fundamental. And it is what the reader will accomplish on these pages.

  • Publisher: Springer

This essential volume comprehensively discusses redox-active therapeutics, focusing particularly on their molecular design, mechanistic, pharmacological and medicinal aspects. The first section of the book describes the basic aspects of the chemistry and biology of redox-active drugs and includes a brief overview of the redox-based pathways involved in cancer and the medical aspects of redox-active drugs, assuming little in the way of prior knowledge. Subsequent sections and chapters describe more specialized aspects of central nervous system injuries, neurodegenerative diseases, pain, radiation injury and radioprotection (such as of brain, lungs, head and neck and erectile function) and neg...
