Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for nearly 10 million deaths in 2020, or nearly one in six deaths. Although some individuals are at higher risk due to non-modifiable risk factors, between 30-40% of all cancer cases are estimated to be preventable through healthy lifestyles, including healthy diets. In 2018, a report from the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research promoted ten cancer prevention recommendations on diet and nutrition. But characterizing a healthy diet is not easy, since foods and nutrients are not consumed alone. Over the past decade, dietary pattern analysis has emerged as an alternative and complementary approach to ...
This collection of critical essays investigates an emergent and increasingly important field of cultural production in Latin America: cyberliterature and cyberculture in their varying manifestations, including blogs and hypertext narratives, collective novels and e-mags, digital art and short Net-films. Highly innovative in its conception, this book provides the first sustained academic focus on this area of cultural production, and investigates the ways in which cyberliterature and cyberculture in the broadest sense are providing new configurations of subjects, narrative voices, and even political agency, for Latin Americans. The volume is divided into two main sections. The first comprises...

Muito além de analisar a viabilidade e necessidade do reconhecimento jurídico das famílias poliafetivas, esta obra debate o impacto da monogamia no Direito, sobretudo no Direito das Famílias. Quando falamos em família, quase que automaticamente nos vem à mente um homem casado com uma mulher e um par de filhos, leia-se, uma família monogâmica, heteroafetiva, branca, com filhos biológicos e bilarerais. Isso não é coincidência. Essa imagem de comercial de margarina foi introjetada, tanto no campo das mentalidades quanto no jurídico, como parte do projeto colonizador engendrado por Portugal no Brasil a partir de 1500. Mas será que sempre fomos assim? Será que sempre fomos heteroaf...

Direito, enquanto reflexo econômico e social, deve fornecer meios para antever e solucionar problemas, detendo, também, caráter preventivo. Assim, considerando que no Brasil quase 90% das empresas são familiares, sendo que estas possuem demandas próprias, o Protocolo Familiar constitui-se uma imprescindível ferramenta. Isso porque é um instituto jurídico que reúne normas e códigos de conduta para a manutenção e coordenação das riquezas geradas por famílias, especialmente aquelas que se encontram no comando de sociedades. Porém, a utilização desse instrumento deve estar cercada de cuidados, exigindo compatibilização com preceitos legais, tanto de ordem familiar, sucessória, contratual, como societária. A presente obra analisa a legalidade, eficácia e as implicações societárias do Protocolo Familiar, registrando os principais efeitos sobre sociedades limitadas e anônimas.
