Currículo Escolar e Epistemologia Social
Currículo escolar e epistemologia social insere-se no movimento dos educadores interessados em compreender a forma como os sujeitos elaboram suas concepções e as transformam em ação, seja no âmbito escolar, seja no âmbito das políticas em educação. Por meio de uma ampla investigação com um grupo de educadores de uma escola pública do município de Blumenau-SC – tendo os significados elaborados sobre o currículo escolar como objeto de pesquisa e a epistemologia social como perspectiva de análise –, Carin Carvalho Brugnara apresenta a relevância da investigação histórica da escolarização, articulada com a compreensão das práticas discursivas, especificamente dos sist...
New Technologies in Radiation Oncology
- Summarizes the state of the art in the most relevant areas of medical physics and engineering applied to radiation oncology - Covers all relevant areas of the subject in detail, including 3D imaging and image processing, 3D treatment planning, modern treatment techniques, patient positioning, and aspects of verification and quality assurance - Conveys information in a readily understandable way that will appeal to professionals and students with a medical background as well as to newcomers to radiation oncology from the field of physics
Comprehensive Brachytherapy
Modern brachytherapy is one of the most important oncological treatment modalities requiring an integrated approach that utilizes new technologies, advanced clinical imaging facilities, and a thorough understanding of the radiobiological effects on different tissues, the principles of physics, dosimetry techniques and protocols, and clinical expertise. A complete overview of the field, Comprehensive Brachytherapy: Physical and Clinical Aspects is a landmark publication, presenting a detailed account of the underlying physics, design, and implementation of the techniques, along with practical guidance for practitioners. Bridging the gap between research and application, this single source brings together the technological basis, radiation dosimetry, quality assurance, and fundamentals of brachytherapy. In addition, it presents discussion of the most recent clinical practice in brachytherapy including prostate, gynecology, breast, and other clinical treatment sites. Along with exploring new clinical protocols, it discusses major advances in imaging, robotics, dosimetry, Monte Carlo-based dose calculation, and optimization.
Quality and Safety in Radiotherapy
The first text to focus solely on quality and safety in radiotherapy, this work encompasses not only traditional, more technically oriented, quality assurance activities, but also general approaches of quality and safety. It includes contributions from experts both inside and outside the field to present a global view. The task of assuring quality
Mycotoxins and Food Safety
Mycotoxins, from the Greek "mukes" referring to fungi or slime molds and toxin from the Latin "toxicum" referencing a poison for arrows, have earned their reputation for being potentially deleterious to the health and well being of a consuming organism, whether it be animal or human. Unfortunately, mycotoxins are a ubiquitous factor in the natural life cycle of food producing plants. As such, control of the potential impact of mycotoxins on food safety relies heavily upon accurate analysis and surveys followed by commodity segregation and restricted use or decontamination through processing. The purpose of this book is to provide the most comprehensive and current information on the topic of mycotoxins and assuring food safety. Chapters represented in the book reflect such diverse topics ranging from occurrence and impact, analysis, reduction through processing and plant breeding, toxicology and safety assessments to regulatory perspectives. Authors represent a range of international perspectives.
Introduction to Analysis
"The topics are quite standard: convergence of sequences, limits of functions, continuity, differentiation, the Riemann integral, infinite series, power series, and convergence of sequences of functions. Many examples are given to illustrate the theory, and exercises at the end of each chapter are keyed to each section."--pub. desc.
Avalanche Protection in Switzerland
This translation of a collection of 16 articles by Swiss avalanche experts summarizes the current state-of-the-art of structural control of avalanches in Europe. It includes articles on avalanche formation, deflecting, and retarding structures.
Herbs to Help You Heal

So many people are in the process of finding earth friendly practices to help improve the health of the planet. Incorporating herbs into your life can benefit both the earth, and your body, this book provides a path to taking control of your own health, even growing beneficial plants in your own back yard. If you are familiar with using herbs or are discovering them for the first time; Herbs To Help you Heal can give you the information you need at a glance to make smart and informed choices.
The Elgar Companion to Geography, Transdisciplinarity and Sustainability
With contributions from top geographers, this Companion frames sustainability as exemplar of transdisciplinary science (critical geography) while improving future scenarios, debating perspectives between rich North/poor South, modern urban/backwards rural, and everything in between. The Companion has five sections that carry the reader from foundational considerations to integrative trends, to resources use and accommodation, to examples highlighting non-traditional pathways, to a postscript about cooperation of the industrialized Earth and a prognosis of the road ahead for the new geographies of sustainability.
Hurricane Risk
This book details the outcomes of new research focusing on climate risk related to hurricanes. Topics include numerical simulation of tropical cyclones, through tropical cyclone hazard estimation to damage estimates and their implications for commercial risk. Inspired by the 6th International Summit on Hurricanes and Climate Change: From Hazard to Impact, this book brings together leading international academics and researchers, and provides a source reference for both risk managers and climate scientists for research on the interface between tropical cyclones, climate and risk.
