The Anthropocene has become a field of studies in which the influence of human activity on the Earth System and nature is both the main threat and the potential solution. Social Representations Theory has been evolving since the 1960s.It links knowledge and practice in everyday life and is an effective way to deal with systemic crises based on common sense.

Educação profissional e tecnológica no Brasil
tenho o prazer de prefaciar, propicia-nos importantes reflexões, resultados de pesquisas solidamente fundamentadas. Escrito por educadores/pesquisadores do Grupo de Pesquisa em Educação Profissional (GPEP-CNPq), do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de São Paulo – Campus São Roque (IFSP/SRQ), com quem tive o primeiro contato em 2018, este livro nos oferece a possibilidade de conhecer as particularidades institucionais dos Institutos Federais, suas conquistas e contradições e o assédio institucional – que vêm sofrendo por meio de ameaças e ataques de um Poder Executivo inimigo da educação pública democrática, que vem manifestando um profundo ódio pelo povo e uma postura profundamente elitizada e privatista da educação.

Psicologia e Educação: nas entrelinhas de um encontro
As contribuições do campo psicológico para pensar as questões educacionais não são recentes. Contudo, essa articulação na prática ainda encontra dificuldades, especialmente, nas escolas públicas. Nesse sentido, trabalhos acadêmicos que permitam um olhar mais aprofundado para realidades múltiplas, principalmente em cidades do interior do paÃs são muito necessários. Eles podem ampliar significados e sentidos sobre o desenvolvimento dos sujeitos em cenários materiais e interativos diferentes daqueles vividos nos grandes centros urbanos. Esse é o caso da obra aqui em tela. Ela se propõe a trazer um conjunto de 19 artigos que promovem um rico debate acerca de diferentes problemÃ...
Constituição da subjetividade docente
As reflexões presentes nesse livro são oriundas de uma pesquisa qualitativa que buscou investigar a formação inicial docente no estágio supervisionado a partir da perspectiva da subjetividade, possibilitando compreender o caráter histórico dos processos pessoais e as questões subjetivas que permeiam a construção do ser professor. A discussão inicial que é apontada para a compreensão da subjetividade encontra-se na contribuição que suas concepções trazem para o entendimento do fenômeno da formação inicial docente a partir do estágio supervisionado na sua complexidade. Para além dessas considerações, a concepção de estágio apresentada busca superar uma visão de estÃ...

Chip Wants a Dog
Chip has dreamed about owning a dog since he was a baby. A dog would be his best friend, for he would teach it to sit, stay, fetch, and roll over. But Chip's parents refuse to buy him one.

From then on, his life is changed--he takes himself for walks; teaches himself to sit, stay, and fetch; and makes plenty of neighborhood friends!
Encyclopedia of Molecular Pharmacology
An essential text, this is a fully updated second edition of a classic, now in two volumes. It provides rapid access to information on molecular pharmacology for research scientists, clinicians and advanced students. With the A-Z format of over 2,000 entries, around 350 authors provide a complete reference to the area of molecular pharmacology. The book combines the knowledge of classic pharmacology with the more recent approach of the precise analysis of the molecular mechanisms by which drugs exert their effects. Short keyword entries define common acronyms, terms and phrases. In addition, detailed essays provide in-depth information on drugs, cellular processes, molecular targets, techniques, molecular mechanisms, and general principles.
Modernity in Black and White
Modernity in Black and White provides a groundbreaking account of modern art and modernism in Brazil. Departing from previous accounts, mostly restricted to the elite arenas of literature, fine art and architecture, the book situates cultural debates within the wider currents of Brazilian life. From the rise of the first favelas, in the 1890s and 1900s, to the creation of samba and modern carnival, over the 1910s and 1920s, and tracking the expansion of mass media and graphic design, into the 1930s and 1940s, it foregrounds aspects of urban popular culture that have been systematically overlooked. Against this backdrop, Cardoso provides a radical re-reading of Antropofagia and other modernist currents, locating them within a broader field of cultural modernization. Combining extensive research with close readings of a range of visual cultural production, the volume brings to light a vast archive of art and images, all but unknown outside Brazil.
Historical Justice and Memory
Historical Justice and Memory highlights the global movement for historical justice—acknowledging and redressing historic wrongs—as one of the most significant moral and social developments of our times. Such historic wrongs include acts of genocide, slavery, systems of apartheid, the systematic persecution of presumed enemies of the state, colonialism, and the oppression of or discrimination against ethnic or religious minorities. The historical justice movement has inspired the spread of truth and reconciliation processes around the world and has pushed governments to make reparations and apologies for past wrongs. It has changed the public understanding of justice and the role of memory. In this book, leading scholars in philosophy, history, political science, and semiotics offer new essays that discuss and assess these momentous global developments. They evaluate the strength and weaknesses of the movement, its accomplishments and failings, its philosophical assumptions and social preconditions, and its prospects for the future.
Lagoa Santa Karst: Brazil's Iconic Karst Region
This book discusses the Lagoa Santa Karst, which has been internationally known since the pioneering studies of the Danish naturalist Peter Lund in the early 1800s. It covers the speleogenesis, geology, vegetation, fauna, hydrogeology, geomorphology, and anthropogenic use of the Lagoa Santa Karst and is the first English-language book on this major karst area. The area, which has been at the heart of the debate on the origin and age of human colonization in the Americas, is characterized by a classical and scenic karst landscape with limestone cliffs, karst lakes and karst plains, in addition to numerous solution dolines. More than 1,000 caves have been documented in the area, many with significant archeological and paleontological value. Despite its great importance, the Lagoa Santa Karst faces severe environmental threats due to limestone mining and the expansion of the metropolis of Belo Horizonte and its surrounding towns. The growing recognition of the area’s remarkable significance has led to increasing concern, and a number of protected areas have now been established, improving the conservation status of this landmark karst area.
