Advances in Human Factors in Robots, Unmanned Systems and Cybersecurity
This book focuses on the importance of human factors in the development of safe and reliable robotic and unmanned systems. It discusses solutions for improving the perceptual and cognitive abilities of robots, developing suitable synthetic vision systems, coping with degraded reliability in unmanned systems, and predicting robotic behavior in relation to human activities. It covers the design of improved, easy to use, human–system interfaces, together with strategies for increasing human–system performance, and reducing cognitive workload at the user interface. It also discusses real-world applications and case studies of human-robot and human-agent collaboration in different business an...
Red October
Bolivia witnessed a left-indigenous insurrectionary cycle between 2000 and 2005 that overthrew two neoliberal presidents and laid the foundation for Evo Morales’ successful bid to become the country’s first indigenous head of state in 2006. Building on the theoretical traditions of revolutionary Marxism and indigenous liberation, this book provides an analytical framework for understanding the fine-grained sociological and political nuances of twenty-first century Bolivian class-struggle, state-repression, and indigenous resistance, as well the deeply historical roots of today’s oppositional traditions. Drawing on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, including more than 80 in-depth interviews with social-movement and trade-union activists, Red October is a ground-breaking intervention in the study of contemporary Bolivia and the wider Latin American turn to the left over the last decade.

Global Trade Analysis
This book, drawn from the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP), aims to help readers conduct quantitative analysis of international trade issues in an economy-wide framework. In addition to providing a succinct introduction to the GTAP modeling framework and data base, this book contains seven of the most refined GTAP applications undertaken to date, covering topics ranging from trade policy, to the global implications of environmental policies, factor accumulation and technological change.
El Capitulo Perdido
Relato ambientado en 1950 que gira en torno a la Copa del Mundo disputada en Brasil. El protagonista de la historia, Francisco Da Silva, es un joven periodista del prestigioso New York Times. Este personaje - hijo de emigrantes portugueses, nacido y criado en Estados Unidos- consigue que. aunque con reticencia, el jefe de redacción lo autorice a viajar a Brasil para cubrir el evento. Lo histórico-documental se ensambla con la ficción y el lector va a poder acompañar al protagonista en una historia fascinante y también acceder a datos y anécdotas que no conocía. En suma, un texto que ofrece el doble valor de la buena literatura y la historia viva de aquellas jornadas inolvidables.
