Letramentos, políticas linguísticas e educação linguística em contexto capixaba
Estamos vivenciando, no momento em que se publica esta obra, um ataque às áreas das humanidades, mais especificamente às formações docentes realizadas em âmbitos universitários estaduais e federais em nosso país. Os letramentos, bem como as políticas linguísticas e educacionais, que têm como princípio uma educação com vistas à emancipação crítica e cidadã por parte dos educandos. Assim, o livro está dividido em três partes: a primeira discorre sobre os letramentos, sob vieses teóricos e práticos; a segunda explora as interfaces entre os letramentos e os estudos linguísticos; já a terceira focaliza as políticas linguísticas.
Language education and the university: fostering socially-just practices in undergraduate contexts. Volume 1: language, culture and discourse
Organizadores: Daniel de Mello Ferraz, Ana Paula Martinez Duboc We don’t know what the future holds among so much polarization, hybrid wars, movements to disassemble public education, but the role of a teacher educator who is engaged and aware of its representation in the society cannot be denied and vanished. On the contrary, a teacher educator in the complexity of his/her role will inevitably be reference of resistance: creating discursive and theoretical opportunities, legitimizing knowledge other than those which comes top down. Certainly, this book will trigger other similar projects and contribute meaningfully to critical teacher education (Fabrício Ono).

Bate-papo com educadores linguísticos
Em tempos de questionamentos em relação à validade e à relevância das pesquisas produzidas nas Ciências Humanas e Sociais; em um momento em que os cursos de educação superior, em especial os das áreas mencionadas, sofrem graves ataques; e nosso direito à liberdade de expressão é ofuscado por um discurso e atitudes conservadores que ganham cada dia mais força, este livro, Bate-papo com educadores linguísticos: Letramentos, formação docente e criticidade, surge para dar voz a professores, pesquisadores, linguistas e linguistas aplicados para que discutam a Educação Linguística em inglês por meio de temas atuais e, mais do que nunca, necessários. Poderia ser mais uma obra em que especialistas são convidados a responder uma ou algumas questões propostas pelos organizadores, mas não é. Os questionamentos são formulados por alunos graduandos e pós-graduandos da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, integrantes do Grupo de Estudos sobre Educação Crítica em Língua Estrangeira (GEEC-LE), além de professores da rede pública, inspirados pelas leituras de textos escritos e palestras proferidas pelos autores dos diversos capítulos.
Nanotoxicology
This book takes a systematic approach to nanotoxicology and the developing risk factors associated with nanosized particles during manufacture and use of nanotechnology. Beginning with a detailed introduction to engineered nanostructures, the first part of the book presents concepts and definitions of nanomaterials from quantum dots to graphene to fullerenes, with detailed discussion of functionalization, stability, and medical and biological applications. The second part critically examines methodologies used to assess cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. Coverage includes interactions with blood (erythrocytes), combinatorial and microarray techniques, cellular mechanisms, and ecotoxicology asses...
Language, Capitalism, Colonialism
Providing an original approach to the study of language by linking it to the political and economic contexts of colonialism and capitalism, Heller and McElhinny reinterpret sociolinguistics for a twenty-first-century audience. They map out a critical history of how language serves as a terrain for producing and reproducing social inequalities. The book, organized chronologically, and beginning in the period of colonial expansion in the sixteenth century, covers the development of the modern nation state and then the fascist, communist, and universalist responses to the inequities such nations created. It then moves through the two World Wars and the Cold War that followed, as well as the shift to liberal democracy, the welfare state, and decolonization in the 1960s, ending with the contemporary period, characterized by a globalized economy and neoliberal politics since the 1980s. Throughout, the authors ask how ideas about language get shaped, and by whom, unevenly across sites and periods, offering new perspectives on how to think about language that will both excite and incite further research for years to come.
The Case for Marriage
A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for childr...

Christian Higher Education
This book offers a fresh report and interpretation of what is happening at the intersection of two great contemporary movements: the rapid growth of higher education worldwide and the rise of world Christianity. It features on-site, evaluative studies by scholars from Africa, Asia, North America, and South America. Christian Higher Education: A Global Reconnaissance visits some of the hotspots of Christian university development, such as South Korea, Kenya, and Nigeria, and compares what is happening there to places in Canada, the United States, and Europe, where Christian higher education has a longer history. Very little research until now has examined the scope and direction of Christian higher education throughout the world, so this volume fills a real gap.
Neotropical Endophytic Fungi
This pioneering book focuses on Neotropical endophytic fungi, providing a comprehensive overview of their diversity, ecology, and biotechnological applications in medicine, agriculture, and industry. Despite their rich diversity, the endophytic fungi associated with plants of Central and South American biomes remain largely unknown. The book addresses that knowledge gap by offering insights into Neotropic endophytic fungal community.
