Understanding the Context of Cognitive Aging
This book provides a bi-national portrait of dementia in the rapidly aging Mexican-origin population in Mexico and the United States. It provides a comprehensive overview of critical conceptual and methodological issues in the study of cognitive aging and related mental and physical conditions. The book examines the sources of vulnerability and their consequences for Mexican-origin and for “aging in place”. By providing a combination of new knowledge, empirical evidence, and fresh approaches of dementia support in later life, this book will contribute to moving the field of Mexican-origin aging and health forward. By focusing on the serious challenges in old-age support for older people with dementia and neurocognitive disorders in two different contexts, this book will deepen academics, researchers, students and young investigators understanding of what is necessary to achieve optional care.

Dos personas que viven a más de 1700 kilómetros “se juntan” a escribir sobre prácticas comunes, motivaciones personales, deseos colectivos o, más bien, deseos de colectivizar (aún más) el acceso a las ramificaciones y fructificaciones de sus experiencias, siendo quienes eligen ser: dos personas atravesadas por una (in)disciplina que deconstruyen y, a la vez, a la que aportan sin dogmatismo y con profundo compromiso. Estas dos personas, en la misma obra, están compartiendo con absoluta transparencia sus “historias metodológicas”. Más allá de los vistazos que habilitan y regalan a momentos de sus vidas y trayectorias, Brenda y Juan Manuel realizan propuestas detalladas y minu...

Some methods discussed include in vitro propagation, greenhouse hydroponics, biostimulants from algae, cartography models of vulnerable environmental interactions, nuclear and plastics engineering, eco-friendly extraction processes, use of secondary metabolites in plant defense mechanisms, and more.
A History of Argentine Literature
Argentine Literature continues to figure prominently in academic programs in the English-speaking world, and it has an increasing presence in English translation in international prizes and trade journals. A History of Argentine Literature proposes a major reimagining of Argentine literature attentive to production in indigenous and migration languages and to current debates in Literary Studies. Panoramic in scope and incisive in its in-depth studies of authors, works, and theoretical problems, this volume builds on available scholarship on canonical works but opens up the field to include a more diverse rendering as well as engaging with the full spectrum of textual interventions from travel writing to drama, from popular 'gauchesca' to celebrated avant guard works Working at the crossroads of disciplines, languages and critical traditions, this book accounts for the wealth of Argentine cultural production and maps the rich, diverse and often overlooked history of Argentine literature.
