Uma Rapsódia Aeronáutica

Substantivo feminino. Palavra incomum no uso coloquial da língua portuguesa, de significado amplo e intenso, que busca compilar a alma dessa obra literária, uma Rapsódia sobre o poder aéreo. Ao reunir textos de opinião, poemas, anotações técnicas, ensaios acadêmicos, artigos científicos e relatórios de pesquisa produzidos ao longo de mais de 30 anos de vida aeronáutica, o livro busca apenas franquear ao leitor a liberdade de informar-se sobre aspectos e pontos de vista peculiares à gestão do poder aéreo brasileiro, em temáticas que os italianos classificariam como rapsodicamente distribuídas, em anos e temas, porém sempre orbitando ao redor do homem, do meio ou da máquina.

Proteção Social dos Militares

Obra seminal para compreensão das políticas públicas de proteção social militar das forças armadas. O autor busca, inclusive, trazer ao leitor conhecimentos afetos ao contexto histórico da temática, seja no panorama global quanto no brasileiro. No decorrer da páginas tipifica-se, pouco a pouco, as peculiaridades legais, contábeis e atuariais da profissão militar em inúmeros países, para identificar a necessidade de uma política pública perene para uma atividade profissional pouco estudada pela academia brasileira. O livro ainda guarda duas virtudes centrais: ser precursor ao debate legislativo ocorrido no parlamento brasileiro em 2019, sobre as reformas nos sistemas protetivos sociais, previdenciários ou não; e apresentar conteúdo propositivo para outros pesquisadores e para os gestores públicos no Brasil.

This book presents Brazil as a country of continental dimensions. Its territory has a large variety of rock types, geological structures and climates. The country has a large variety of landscapes, such as the humid plains of the Amazon River, the dry plateaus of the semi-arid region or the subtropical mountains of the southern region. On the coast, some plateaus and mountains, like the Serra do Mar Mountain range, formed a significant barrier front to access the hinterland of Brazil. On the other side of these coastal plateaus and mountains, there is a large collection of other plateaus, mountains, plains and depressions little altered by human interference. Thus, Brazil has a unique variety of different landscapes and extraordinary geomorphological sites. The book invites readers to learn more about the beautiful Brazilian landscapes, their complexity and vastness.

Disabling Obesity

Obesity is currently regarded as one of the major health challenges of the developed world. Excess body weight is an important risk factor for morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer, musculoskeletal disorders and even psychiatric problems and is estimated to cause nearly 3 million deaths per year worldwide. Obesity is not necessarily associated with comorbidities: there are indeed metabolically healthy obese individuals. Thus, we need to consider individuals presenting simple with obesity separately from those at risk of developing or who have already developed complex clinical states potentially leading to disability. Comorbidities can tip the balance of inde...

Online Distance Education

Online Distance Education: Towards a Research Agenda offers a systematic overview of the major issues, trends, and areas of priority in online distance education research. In each chapter, an international expert or team of experts provides an overview of one timely issue in online distance education, summarizing major research on the topic, discussing theoretical insights that guide the research, posing questions and directions for future research, and discussing the implications for distance education practice as a whole. Intended as a primary reference and guide for distance educators, researchers, and policymakers, Online Distance Education addresses aspects of distance education practice that have often been marginalized, including issues of cost and economics, concerns surrounding social justice, cultural bias, the need for faculty professional development, and the management and growth of learner communities. At once soundly empirical and thoughtfully reflective, yet also forward-looking and open to new approaches to online and distance teaching, this text is a solid resource for researchers in a rapidly expanding discipline.
