O livro "Práticas democráticas e epistemologias contra-hegemônicas: formação e cuidado" reúne textos do GT Práticas Psicológicas em Instituições da ANPEPP, produzidos durante o último biênio. Esta publicação pós-pandêmica reflete as dificuldades enfrentadas na pesquisa devido ao distanciamento social e ameaças governamentais. O grupo realizou encontros virtuais e, em 2023, ocorreu o XV Simpósio no qual foram apresentados os textos desta publicação. O GT se destaca por sua pluralidade teórica, interdisciplinaridade e crítica ao modo hegemônico de produção de pesquisa a partir do paradigma produtivista e quantitativo. Organizado em duas seções nomeadas "Cidadania e Participação" e "Investigações Contra-Hegemônicas", o livro discute temas como construção democrática de práticas de cuidado e participação na educação, na saúde mental, na cultura popular e em movimentos sociais; prevenção e pósvenção em suicídio; gordofobia, entre outros. Os textos oferecem análises de práticas que respondem a demandas sociais com um olhar decolonial, promovendo e incentivando a interação entre academia e sociedade.

A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.

Biochar is the carbon-rich product when biomass (such as wood, manure or crop residues) is heated in a closed container with little or no available air. It can be used to improve agriculture and the environment in several ways, and its stability in soil and superior nutrient-retention properties make it an ideal soil amendment to increase crop yields. In addition to this, biochar sequestration, in combination with sustainable biomass production, can be carbon-negative and therefore used to actively remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, with major implications for mitigation of climate change. Biochar production can also be combined with bioenergy production through the use of the gases that are given off in the pyrolysis process. This book is the first to synthesize the expanding research literature on this topic. The book's interdisciplinary approach, which covers engineering, environmental sciences, agricultural sciences, economics and policy, is a vital tool at this stage of biochar technology development. This comprehensive overview of current knowledge will be of interest to advanced students, researchers and professionals in a wide range of disciplines.

After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca.
