Importância da parentalidade para o desenvolvimento infantil
Os primeiros anos de vida são considerados relevantes para o desenvolvimento humano. As experiências vividas desde o nascimento propiciam o florescimento de vários aspectos do desenvolvimento: personalidade, comportamento, fala, linguagem, motor e cognitivo. Dessa forma, pensamos em uma obra que englobasse diversas áreas do conhecimento, como a psicologia, a fonoaudiologia e a psicomotricidade. Nesta interlocução, à luz dos seus estudos e práticas, estas áreas ampliam a discussão sobre a importância da parentalidade nos primeiros anos de vida da criança. Este livro aborda temas que relacionam o desenvolvimento infantil ao envolvimento paterno, à criação com apego, à linguagem e à interação mãe-criança, à(s) brincadeira(s) e aos estilos parentais, à ecopsicologia, ao discurso materno e à cognição. Contamos com a contribuição de 12 autores, atualmente alocados em cinco Estados diferentes do Brasil e um autor na Noruega (Universidade de Oslo).
The Emotions and Cultural Analysis
Amidst prevailing debates that construe rationality and emotionality as polar opposites, this book explores the manner in which emotions shape not only prevailing conceptions of rationality, but also culture in general terms, making room for us to speak of an 'emotional culture' specific to late-modern societies. Presenting case studies involving cultural artefacts, narratives found in fictional and non-fictional literature and television programs, speech patterns and self-talk, fashion, and social networking practices, The Emotions and Cultural Analysis sheds light on the relationship between emotion and culture and the ways in which emotion can be harnessed for the purposes of cultural analysis. An interdisciplinary volume containing the latest research from sociology, philosophy, literary studies, linguistics, and communication, this book will be of interest to those working on the sociology and philosophy of emotion, cultural studies, and cultural theory.
On Literature
Debates rage over what kind of literature we should read, what is good and bad literature, and whether in the global, digital age, literature even has a future. But what exactly is literature? Why should we read literature? How do we read literature? These are some of the important questions J. Hillis Miller answers in this beautifully written and passionate book. He begins by asking what literature is, arguing that the answer lies in literature's ability to create an imaginary world simply with words. On Literature also asks the crucial question of why literature has such authority over us. Returning to Plato, Aristotle and the Bible, Miller argues we should continue to read literature because it is part of our basic human need to create imaginary worlds and to have stories. Above all, On Literature is a plea that we continue to read and care about literature.

MacArthur Communicative Development Inventories
The MacArthur Communicative Development Inventories (CDI) are a pair of time-efficient, cost-effective, machine-readable forms - to be completed by the parent - that provide information about young children's communicative skills. Using the CDI forms - one for infants, one for toddlers - along with the instructions and data in the CDI User's Guide and Technical Manual, speech-language pathologists and other specialists working in schools, hospitals, and clinics can now obtain reliable information on the course of a child's language development - starting with the first non-verbal gestural signals - through the expansion of early vocabularly - to the beginning of grammar.

Multilingual Literacy
This book investigates multilingual literacy practices, explores the technology applied in different educational frameworks, the centrality of multilingual literacy in non-formal, informal and formal educational contexts, as well as its presence in everyday life. Thematically clustered in four parts, the chapters present an overview of theory related to multilingual literacy, address the methodological challenges of research in the area, describe and evaluate projects set up to foster multilingual literacy in a variety of educational contexts, analyze the literacy practices of multilinguals and their contribution to language and literacy acquisition. This volume aims to initiate a change in paradigms, shifting from structured and conservative problematizations to inclusive and diverse conceptualizations and practices. To that end, the book showcases explorations of different methodologies and needs in formal and non-formal educational systems; and it serves as a springboard for developing multivocal participatory spaces with opportunities for learning and identity-building for all multilinguals, across different settings, languages, ages and contexts.
Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacology

These drugs are generally organic compounds and can be divided into classes of biologics and small organic compounds. Medicinal chemistry is focused on the production of small organic molecules such as atorvastatin, fluticasone, clopidogrel, etc. The principles of synthetic organic chemistry, computational chemistry, enzymology, structural biology and chemical biology are integrated in medicinal chemistry. The study of drugs and their effects on the living body are explored in pharmacology. It involves the research, discovery and chara...
