Altino: Memórias de um Repórter
Uma vida inteira dedicada ao jornalismo. Uma personalidade inquieta que evidenciava o prazer e o compromisso pela notícia. Ao longo de seus mais de 60 anos de carreira, trabalhando para veículos de circulação nacional, como Folha da Tarde, Folha de S. Paulo, Jornal do Brasil, Notícias Populares, O Estado de S. Paulo, O Globo e Última Hora, Altino Correia relatou histórias memoráveis que tornaram a região de Presidente Prudente, interior de São Paulo, conhecida além de seus limites territoriais. Registros jornalísticos que traduziam o desenvolvimento do interior do estado e, ao mesmo tempo, a expansão do jornalismo nessa região, entre as décadas de 1950 e 1980. As dificuldades para se exercer a profissão ficaram para trás, mas o desafio em trazer episódios de cunho social e econômico permaneceu. Como um contador de histórias, Altino nunca deixará que essa natureza morra dentro de si.

Os Três Casamentos de Camilla S.
Aos noventa anos de vida, Camilla decide percorrer os seus diários e contar as suas memórias. A sua história é a de uma mulher que, ainda que às vezes de longe, viu o tempo e os actos mudarem o mundo. É também a história dos seus três casamentos e do seu único amor, pois a vida de Camilla é feita de iguais medidas de alegria e desespero. A sua memória é a de uma jornada de crescimento, desde a inocente casada demasiado cedo à mulher que amou e sofreu e viveu uma vida completa. E a voz de Camilla é fascinante, tal como o é o percurso da sua vida. Os Três Casamentos de Camilla S. é a autobiografia de uma velha senhora que, quase no final da vida, decide contar a sua história, incluindo o que ela possa ter de inconfessável. Desde os ambientes à narrativa (que atravessa quase um século de História), estamos perante um livro adequadamente romântico e profundamente moderno, onde estão presentes a poesia e o maravilhoso a que a autora nos habituou.
Women Past and Present
In Western societies, many traditional feminist claims have already been fulfilled both in law and in official discourse. Indeed, legislative steps have already been taken towards securing civil and political rights and equal opportunities for women. This, of course, is not the case in many other regions of the world, as some of the chapters in this book clearly testify. Yet, notwithstanding the gains achieved in Western societies, residual forms of resistance and prejudice still persist in discourses, categories and discriminative practices in this so-called “post-feminist” era. Furthermore, new manifestations of asymmetries in gender relations and new ways of thinking and experiencing subjectivity are currently emerging, as a result of growing globalisation, economic crises, migration patterns, female sex and labour trafficking, trans-nationalism, and new technologies, not to mention the beauty and body sculpting industries.
Game of Crowns
A moving and compulsively readable look into the lives, loves, relationships, and rivalries among the three women at the heart of the British royal family today: Queen Elizabeth II, Camilla Parker-Bowles, and Kate Middleton—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Good Son, These Few Precious Days, and The Day Diana Died. One has been famous longer than anyone on the planet—a dutiful daughter, a frustrated mother, a doting grandmother, a steel-willed taskmaster, a wily stateswoman, an enduring symbol of an institution that has lasted a thousand years, and a global icon who has not only been an eyewitness to history but a part of it. One is the great-granddaughter of a King’...

With Eyes and Ears Open: The Role of Visitors in the Society of Jesus
In With Eyes and Ears Open: The Role of Visitors in the Society of Jesus, twelve historians examine important visitations in the history of the Society. After a thorough investigation of the nature and role of the “visitor” in Jesuit rules and regulations, ten visitations of missions and provinces—from Peru in the sixteenth century, to Ireland in the seventeenth, to the Zambesi mission and Australia in the twentieth—are considered. Visitors, appointed by the superior general in Rome, surveyed the situation for fidelity to the Jesuit way of life, resolved any problems, and recommended future paths, often to the disapproval of Jesuit hosts. One contribution concerns the canonical visitation of the non-Jesuit Francis Saldanha da Gama in 1758, which resulted in the expulsion of the Jesuits from Portugal in 1759.
An Introduction to Mathematical Cognition
The last decade has seen a rapid growth in our understanding of the cognitive systems that underlie mathematical learning and performance, and an increased recognition of the importance of this topic. This book showcases international research on the most important cognitive issues that affect mathematical performance across a wide age range, from early childhood to adulthood. The book considers the foundational competencies of nonsymbolic and symbolic number processing before discussing arithmetic, conceptual understanding, individual differences and dyscalculia, algebra, number systems, reasoning and higher-level mathematics such as formal proof. Drawing on diverse methodology from behavio...
