Verdade ou consequência
“Quando se enxugou e entrou no quarto sombrio, uma barata percorria a toda a velocidade o chão em madeira gasta, passou por baixo do cadeirão forrado a veludo, onde sobressaia uma mancha amarelada de origem duvidosa e enfiou-se debaixo do rodapé. No meio daquela nojice, sorriu ao apreciar o correr desengonçado do bicho. Também ela precisava de um esconderijo para fugir da verdade.”
Disgnosia
“Nem todos carregam o coração ao peito, Alguns carregam-no nas mãos, Outros levam-no na boca. Eu cá ainda não sei carregá-lo, Trago-o preso a um fio E vou-o arrastando pelo chão Para, pelo menos, não me esquecer Que também tenho um.”
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...
Dicionário dos Contratos Administrativos Especiais
O contrato administrativo constitui, sem dúvida, uma instituição do Direito Administrativo do nosso tempo. A sua relevância é indiscutível, tanto prática como teórica: prática, enquanto incontornável e frequente modo de atuação jurídica da moderna Administração Pública, que encontra na via do consenso bilateral uma forma de obter uma colaboração mais intensa dos particulares e de prosseguir de modo mais eficaz os diferentes interesses em jogo; teórica, enquanto objeto de atenção académica, evidenciada nos múltiplos projetos de investigação promovidos nas nossas Universidades. Foi precisamente neste contexto que nasceu a ideia de elaborar o presente Dicionário, que procura colmatar a lacuna identificada e permitir ao intérprete e aplicador um primeiro contacto com o conceito e regime de diversos contratos administrativos especiais.
A Short Philosophy of Birds
The greatest wisdom comes from the smallest creatures There is so much we can learn from birds. Through twenty-two little lessons of wisdom inspired by how birds live, this charming french book will help you spread your wings and soar. We often need the help from those smaller than us. Having spent a lifetime watching birds, Philippe and Élise – a French ornithologist and a philosopher – draw out the secret lessons that birds can teach us about how to live, and the wisdom of the natural world. Along the way you’ll discover why the robin is braver than the eagle, what the arctic tern can teach us about the joy of travel, and whether the head or the heart is the best route to love (as shown by the mallard and the penguin). By the end you will feel more in touch with the rhythms of nature and have a fresh perspective on how to live the fullest life you can.
Slash & Burn
Finnskogen -- directly translated as 'The Forest of the Finns' -- is a large, contiguous forest belt along the Norwegian-Swedish border, where farming families from Finland settled in the early 1600s. The immigrants -- called Forest Finns -- were slash-and-burn farmers. This ancient agricultural method yielded plentiful crops, but required large forested areas as the soil was quickly exhausted. The Forest Finns' understanding of nature was rooted in an Eastern shamanistic tradition, and they are often associated with magic and mystery. This photographic project draws on these beliefs while investigating what it means to be a Forest Finn today, some 400 years and twelve generations later.
Answer Set Programming
Answer set programming (ASP) is a programming methodology oriented towards combinatorial search problems. In such a problem, the goal is to find a solution among a large but finite number of possibilities. The idea of ASP came from research on artificial intelligence and computational logic. ASP is a form of declarative programming: an ASP program describes what is counted as a solution to the problem, but does not specify an algorithm for solving it. Search is performed by sophisticated software systems called answer set solvers. Combinatorial search problems often arise in science and technology, and ASP has found applications in diverse areas—in historical linguistic, in bioinformatics,...

Illuminance
In 2001, Rinko Kawauchi launched her career with the simultaneous publication of three astonishing photobooksUtatane, Hanabi, and Hanakofirmly establishing her as one of the most innovative newcomers to contemporary photography, not just in Japan, but across the globe. In the years that followed, she published other notable monographs, including Aila (2004), The Eyes, the Ears (2005), and Semear (2007). And now, ten years after her precipitous entry onto the international stage, Aperture is delighted to publish Illuminance, the latest volume of Kawauchis work and the first to be published outside of Japan. Kawauchis work has frequently been lauded for its nuanced palette and offhand composit...
Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
