Emerging Advancements for Virtual and Augmented Reality in Healthcare
Within the last few years, devices that are increasingly capable of offering an immersive experience close to reality have emerged. As devices decrease in size, the interest and application possibilities for them increase. In the healthcare sector, there is an enormous potential for virtual reality development, as this technology allows, on the one hand, the execution of operations or processes at a distance, decoupling realities; and on the other hand, it offers the possibility of simulation for training purposes, whenever there are contexts of risk to the patient or to the health professional. However, virtual reality devices and immersion in virtual environments still requires some improv...

Salazar
Salazar: A Political Biography is the definitive biography of the longstanding Portuguese dictator. António de Oliveira Salazar entered the government of Portugal when Herbert Hoover was president and ended his political career at the end of the Johnson administration. He remained in power for forty years (1928–1968), one of the longest tenures in modern history. Unlike the other ‘great dictators’ of the twentieth century, Salazar, an academic, immersed himself in the minutiae of government and administration, maintaining a prodigious work rate until illness forced his retirement. He successfully managed his country’s finances despite the impact of the Great Depression, imposing a h...

Football and Fascism
Football and Fascism. The Politics of Popular Culture in Portugal tells the hidden history of football and discusses its political, social and cultural foundations, during the longest running authoritarian regime in Europe. Theoretically grounded on Bourdieu’s field theory, and using a multi-scalar methodology, this award-winning research explores the political tensions between the nationalization of sports envisaged by the Portuguese “New State” and the integration of national football in a globalized urban popular culture. Mobilizing unexplored archival sources, and a wide array of primary materials, this groundbreaking work offers new insight on the administrative structures of the ...
A Posse - Estudo Sobre o seu Objecto e Extensão. Perspectiva Histórica e de Direito Português
O presente trabalho aborda o instituto da posse no tocante a dois dos seus aspectos centrais: - O objecto; - A extensão. O tratamento do tema inicia-se na investigação histórica pertinente e vai até à Idade Contemporânea. Sem o conhecimento histórico o Direito vigente não pode ser compreendido e correctamente aplicado e tudo o que existe são construções semânticas sem valor científico e jurídico. Não obstante centrado nos dois aspectos assinalados, procede-se neste estudo à revisão das teorias tradicionais da posse, superando as duas construções dominantes (subjectivismo e objectivismo) num quadro em que se prescinde do elemento subjectivo (o animus), mantendo-se, no entanto, a herança do romanismo nos traços que permaneceram no regime jurídico da posse constante do código civil de 1966.
