TELOS 83
El dossier de este número 83 de Telos está dedicado a la comunicación en movilidad, una temática de rabiosa actualidad y que está cambiando en los últimos años profundamente las relaciones sociales, culturales y económicas. Su coordinación ha sido llevada a cabo por Antonio Fumero (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid), destacado pionero de las nuevas prácticas tecnológicas, que ya coordinó hace algunos años otro dossier de nuestra revista sobre el mundo de los blogs (Telos 65). La movilidad, la ubicuidad en la comunicación, se encarna hoy en múltiples dispositivos que, en número y tipologías crecientes, están expandiéndose de forma geométrica en nuestra sociedad, y no sól...
TELOS 76
En el dosier de este número, bajo la coordinación de Antonio Fumero y José Cerezo, un conjunto de profesionales y docentes españoles de muy diversas formaciones y procedencias aborda las más importantes y urgentes perspectivas sobre las nuevas redes sociales que se están tejiendo en los últimos años en Internet, especialmente en la llamada Web 2.0, y en sus desarrollos más recientes. Hermanados por su afición y experiencia directa en este campo, y sobre la base de un cuaderno central que Telos ya dedicó a los blogs, weblogs y bitacoras (número 65, de 2006), también pionero en su momento, se despliegan diversos textos amplios y varios puntos de vista que proporcionan una mirada o...
TELOS 97
El autor invitado de esta entrega de TELOS ejemplifica bien, en su biografía y en el contenido de su texto, el salto adelante experimentado por buena parte de América Latina en cuanto a la extensión y la apropiación de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC). Germán Rey, avezado investigador en cultura y comunicación, es en efecto, director del centro Attico de Bogotá (Universidad Javeriana), un vivero de innovación abierto a todo tipo de creadores; y en su artículo no solo analiza los cambios sorprendentes de equipamiento de la población colombiana en la última década sino, sobre todo, la transformación inducida en las prácticas culturales y comunicativas ...
Applications of PCR in Mycology
Since the initial report of the amplification of specific DNA fragments using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 1985, this technique has revolutionized molecular biology. It enables the production of large quantities of DNA from minute amounts of sample material, which can then be readily analyzed. This facility has had an enormous influence on the way both fundamental and diagnostic questions are approached and its use is now considered essential for molecular work in all branches of biology. The purpose of this book is to highlight the wide-ranging applications of PCR in pure and applied mycology and to increase understanding of its potential benefits. After a brief overview, a group ...

The Digitization of Healthcare
Combining conceptual, pragmatic and operational approaches, this edited collection addresses the demand for knowledge and understanding of IT in the healthcare sector. With new technology outbreaks, our vision of healthcare has been drastically changed, switching from a ‘traditional’ path to a digitalized one. Providing an overview of the role of IT in the healthcare sector, The Digitization of Healthcare illustrates the potential benefits and challenges for all those involved in delivering care to the patient. The incursion of IT has disrupted the value chain and changed business models for companies working in the health sector, and also raised ethical issues and new paradigms about delivering care. This book illustrates the rise of patient empowerment through the development of patient communities such as PatientLikeMe, and medical collaborate platforms such as DockCheck, thus providing a necessary tool to patients, caregivers and academics alike.
The Cuban Intervention in Angola, 1965-1991
A new examination of why Cuba, a Caribbean country, sent half a million of its citizens to fight in Angola in Africa, and how a short-term intervention escalated into a lengthy war of intervention. It clearly details how in January 1965 Cuba formed an alliance with the Angolan MPLA which evolved into the flagship of its global 'internationalist' mission, spawning the military intervention of November 1975 culminating in Cuba's spurious 'victory' at Cuito Cuanavale and Cuba's fifteen-year occupation of Angola. Drawing on interviews with leading protagonists, first-hand accounts and archive material from Cuba, Angola and South Africa, this new book dispels the myths of the Cuban intervention, revealing that Havana's decision to intervene was not so much an heroic gesture of solidarity, but rather a last-ditch gamble to avert disaster. By examining Cuba's role in the Angolan War in a global context, this book demonstrates how the interaction between the many players in Angola shaped and affected Cuba's intervention as it headed towards its controversial conclusion.
