"Si definimos el coraje como aquello 'que hace que nos dirijamos a lo que no sabemos' (Laurent, Eric: 'Una conversación sobre el coraje'), una forma de presentación del mismo sería dirigirnos hacia lo femenino, aunque ello implique cierto fracaso, sabiendo que en cada fracaso hay que insistir. Pero también hacia lo indecible, en un intento de atrapar algo que no resiste ningún dicho y aún, aproximarnos tozudamente a lo altero. Este libro, su escritura, que no es cualquiera, demuestra eso: coraje" (Luis Tudanca). "En el fondo, el rechazo de la feminidad, no es un rechazo de género: es un rechazo de lo femenino en el sentido de lo definido por la sexuación. Hay evitación de aquello que, para cada uno, hace resonar 'el misterio del cuerpo que habla': se trata de una defensa del sujeto frente a la extimidad del goce incómodo que, sin embargo, hace a lo vivo del parlêtre" (Patrick Monribot). "Se trató de un recorrido [...] incluyendo lo propio, verificando que lo indecible de lo femenino, puede ser tanto lo que objeta el lazo, como lo que lo organiza y le da cuerpo, según se pueda –o no– leer y hacer uso de las propias letras" (Jacquie Lejbowicz).
This open access book provides a comprehensive examination of the European Landing Obligation policy from many relevant perspectives. It includes evaluations of its impacts at economical, socio-cultural, ecological and institutional levels. It also discusses the feasibility and benefits of several potential mitigation strategies. The book was timely published, exactly at the time where the Landing Obligation was planned to be fully implemented. This book is of significant interest to all stakeholders involved, but also to the general public of Europe and to other jurisdictions throughout the world that are also searching for ways to deal with by-catch and discard issues.

El lector atento irá muy bien acompañado por Carmen en este entender sin comprender demasiado rápido que Lacan ponía como condición de la formación del psicoanalista. Y así encontrará en estas páginas una sabia lectura -una lectura persistente, insistente, consistente, paso a paso- de un Seminario de Lacan al que conviene acercarse, aun si es la primera vez, sabiendo que no se entiende cómo entiende, y sin querer comprender demasiado rápido aquello que, sin embargo, ya entiende. Y Carmen -lo sabíamos por otros de sus libros, pero también por el estilo de transmisión de sus charlas- sabe deletrear el texto de Lacan de un modo en el que nos reconocemos de inmediato en una verdadera comunidad de transferencia de trabajo. Lo que no es decir poco. Saludemos entonces este libro, inagotable en efecto, al que Carmen nos invita. Miquel Bassols
‘There was a time when I felt that I had grasped Lacan’s essential being from within – that I had gained, as it were, an apperception of his relation to the world, a mysterious access to that intimate place from which sprang his relation to people and things, and even to himself. It was as if I had slipped within him.’ In this short book, Catherine Millot offers a richly evocative reflection on her life as analysand and lover of the greatest psychoanalyst since Freud. Dwelling on their time together in Paris and in Lacan’s country house in Guitrancourt, as well as describing their many travels, Millot provides unparalleled insights into Lacan’s character as well as his encounters with other major European thinkers of the time. She also sheds new light on key themes, including Lacan’s obsession with the Borromean knot and gradual descent into silence, all enlivened by her unique perspective. This beautifully written memoir, awarded the André Gide Prize for Literature, will be of interest to anyone wishing to understand the life and character of a thinker who continues to exert a wide influence in psychoanalysis and across the humanities and social sciences.
The opportunity that tissue engineering provides for medicine is extraordinary. In the United States alone, over half-a-trillion dollars are spent each year to care for patients who suffer from tissue loss or dysfunction. Although numerous books and reviews have been written on tissue engineering, none has been as comprehensive in its defining of the field. Principles of Tissue Engineering combines in one volume the prerequisites for a general understanding of tissue growth and development, the tools and theoretical information needed to design tissues and organs, as well as a presentation of applications of tissue engineering to diseases affecting specific organ systems. The first edition o...

¿Cómo pensar una civilización sin dios? Tal era la consigna que resonaba en nuestro argumento hasta que la peste llegó a la puerta de nuestros hogares. Todo se acomodó con velocidad y el furor por las pantallas también contagió al psicoanálisis. En aquel argumento hablábamos de la «consistencia provista por los dispositivos publicitarios» superando las posibilidades de lo simbólico, y así vimos amanecer un nuevo lenguaje. La crítica al monoideísmo –que destilaba nuestra formulación–, lejos de diluirse en la situación excepcional de la pandemia, se acentuó. La pan disipó; las posibilidades de lo singular y nuestra propuesta no sólo se tornó necesaria sino urgente. La ...

The issue of gender inequality in architecture has been part of the profession’s discourse for many years, yet the continuing gender imbalance in architectural education and practice remains a difficult subject. This book seeks to change that. It provides the first ever attempt to move the debate about gender in architecture beyond the tradition of gender-segregated diagnostic or critical discourse on the debate towards something more propositional, actionable and transformative. To do this, A Gendered Profession brings together a comprehensive array of essays from a wide variety of experts in architectural education and practice, touching on issues such as LGBT, age, family status, and gender biased awards.
