O livro A César o que é de Deus: contribuições de Bento XVI para a construção de uma economia católica, de Bruno Fernandes Dantas Mamede, aborda a relação entre as práticas político-econômicas e a religião, considerando as interferências do Magistério e de intelectuais católicos acerca desse assunto, sobretudo as contribuições de Joseph Ratzinger-Bento XVI. Organizada em quatro capítulos, a obra propõe verificar as bases do pensamento político-econômico da Igreja Católica por meio da análise do pensamento do cardeal Joseph Ratzinger e do estudo das "encíclicas sociais", especialmente a Carta Encíclica Caritas in Veritate (2009).

Due to a great chemical similarity with the biological calcified tissues, many calcium orthophosphates possess remarkable biocompatibility and bioactivity. Materials scientists use this property extensively to construct artificial bone grafts that are either entirely made of or only surface-coated with the biologically relevant calcium orthophospha

Givon's new book re-casts pragmatics, and most conspicuously the pragmatics of sociality and communication, in neuro-cognitive, bio-adaptive, evolutionary terms. The fact that context, the core notion of pragmatics, is a framing operation undertaken on the fly through judgements of relevance, has been well known since Aristotle, Kant and Peirce. But the context that is relevant to the pragmatics of sociality and communication is a highly specific mental operation — the mental modeling of the interlocutor's current, rapidly shifting belief-and-intention states. The construed context of social interaction and communication is thus a mental representation of other minds. Following a condensed...
