The Prohibition of Torture and Ill-treatment in the Inter-American Human Rights System
"This Handbook presents...information about the inter-American system generally and, in particular, as it relates to the prohibition of torture and cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment."--
Morphotactics
This comprehensive treatment of several phenomena in Distributed Morphology explores a number of topics of high relevance to current linguistic theory. It examines the structure of the syntactic and postsyntactic components of word formation, and the role of hierarchical, featural, and linear restrictions within the auxiliary systems of several varieties of Basque. The postsyntactic component is modeled as a highly articulated system that accounts for what is shared and what exhibits variation across Basque dialects. The emphasis is on a principled ordering of postsyntactic operations based on their intrinsic properties, and on the relationship between representations in the Spellout component of grammar with other grammatical modules. The analyses in the book treat related phenomena in other languages and thereby have much to offer for a general morphology readership, as well as those interested in the syntax-morphology interface, the theory of Distributed Morphology, and Basque.

Introduction to Quantum Mechanics
This course contains a brief and mathematically precise introduction to the conceptual body, and calculation tools, of Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Physics. It is addressed to undergraduate students. The introduction is performed using the semiclassical framework, where Newton´s Classical Mechanics and Relativity as the reference points. Feynman's propagation is used as an axiomatic basis for Quantum Mechanics, completed with the generally admitted ideas about the measurement problem. As a book, it has been revised and re-edited in 2016, 2018 and 2022, and it is now available from Amazon KDP in paperback and as a Kindle Book (see https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V3X4YK1 in US).

Handbook of Latin American Studies
Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and...
Phi-features and the Modular Architecture of Language
This monograph investigates the modular architecture of language through the nature of "uninterpretable" phi-features: person, number, gender, and Case. It provides new tools and evidence for the modular architecture of the human language faculty, a foundational topic of linguistic research. At the same time it develops a new theory for one of the core issues posed by the Minimalist Program: the relationship of syntax to its interfaces and the nature of uninterpretable features. The work sets out to establish a new cross-linguistic phenomenon to study the foregoing, person-governed last-resort repairs, which provides new insights into the nature of ergative/accusative Case and of Case licensing itself. This is the first monograph that explicitly addresses the syntactic vs. morphological status of uninterpretable phi-features and their relationship to interface systems in a similar way, drawing on person-based interactions among arguments as key data-base.
Microparameters in the Grammar of Basque
This book is an endeavor to present and analyze some standard topics in the grammar of Basque from a micro-comparative perspective. From case and agreement to word order and the left periphery, and including an incursion into determiners, the book combines fine-grained theoretical analyses with empirically detailed descriptions. Working from a micro-parametric perspective, the contributions to the volume address in depth some of the exuberant variation attested in the different dialects and subdialects of Basque. At the same time, although the contributions focus mainly on Basque data, cross-linguistic evidence is also presented and discussed. After all, the goal pursued in this book is to attempt to explain variation in Basque as a particular instantiation of variation in human language at large. The volume presents and analyzes a wide range of empirical phenomena, many typologically marked among European languages, and will therefore be a welcome resource to linguists looking for detailed description and/or theoretical discussion.
The new treatment options for diabetic and non-diabetic kidney disease
Nowadays, more than 850 million people worldwide suffer from kidney disease. Over the last ten years, new therapeutic options have been discovered for slowing down chronic kidney disease progression. In this book, new multidisciplinary strategies (e.g., related to nephrology, cardiology, primary care, endocrinology, etc.) for treating patients suffering from chronic kidney disease - with and without diabetes - are fully explained and detailed. This book will give the reader the opportunity to delve into the risk factors for chronic kidney disease progression and its multifactorial treatment, to analyze the classical renin-angiotensin system protection, and to examine in depth the new strategies already present on the market for delaying kidney disease progression and decreasing cardiovascular risk in patients at high risk of cardiovascular mortality. Even though in the last decade the future of people with chronic kidney has clearly improved, the implementation of already accepted renoprotective strategies and new therapies is still crucial to prevent kidney disease from progressing to its end stage.
Rethinking Parameters
This collection of articles provides an overview of current generative theorizing and empirical work on the nature, origin and scope of parameters of linguistic variation. Often taking diverging views, the papers in the volume address some or all of the main debated topics in parametric syntax.
