Perspectivas e interacciones entre el mundo físico y virtual para los nuevos retos del desarrollo socioeconómico
En este libro “Perspectivas e interacciones entre el mundo físico y virtual para los nuevos retos del desarrollo socioeconómico” se presentan capítulos resultados de investigaciones realizadas por docentes investigadores y estudiantes de semilleros de investigación que han indagado sobre emprendimiento digital, mercadeo, gestión y desarrollo organizacional, infraestructura logística, marketing, implicaciones socioeconómicas, innovación tecnológica como parte productiva, social y económica dentro de las organizaciones y en los diferentes contextos regionales, profundizando en temáticas como la gestión empresarial, sociedades modernas, finanzas, donde algunos utilizan la prospectiva y diferentes modelos como complemento de la planeación estratégica para plantear posibles soluciones a las necesidades o problemáticas que se presentan a nivel local, nacional e internacional
Measuring Regional Authority
This is the first of five ambitious volumes theorizing the structure of governance above and below the central state. This book is written for those interested in the character, causes, and consequences of governance within the state and for social scientists who take measurement seriously. The book sets out a measure of regional authority for 81 countries in North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia, and the Pacific from 1950 to 2010. Subnational authority is exercised by individual regions, and this measure is the first that takes individual regions as the unit of analysis. On the premise that transparency is a fundamental virtue in measurement, the authors chart a new path in laying out ...

Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art
Projects that bring the ‘hard’ sciences into art are increasingly being exhibited in galleries and museums across the world. In a surge of publications on the subject, few focus on regions beyond Europe and the Anglophone world. Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art assembles a new corpus of art-science projects by Latin American artists, ranging from big-budget collaborations with NASA and MIT to homegrown experiments in artists’ kitchens. While they draw on recent scientific research, these art projects also ‘decolonize’ science. If increasing knowledge of the natural world has often gone hand-in-hand with our objectification and exploitation of it, the artists studied here ...
Risk Habitat Megacity
Megacity development and the inherent risks and opportunities for humans and the environment is a theme of growing urgency in the 21st century. Focusing on Latin America where urbanization is most advanced, this book studies the complexity of a ‘mega-urban system’ and explores interrelations between sectors and issues by providing an in-depths study of one particular city, Santiago de Chile. The book attempts to (i) focus on the emergence of risk in megacities by analyzing risk elements, (ii) evaluate the extent and severity of risks, (iii) develop strategies to cope with adverse risks, and (iv) to guide urban development by combining concepts with empirical evidence. Drawing on the work of an interdisciplinary and international consortium of academic and professional partners, the book is written for scholars in cross-cutting areas of urban, sustainability, hazard, governance and planning research as well as practitioners from local, regional and international organizations.
Frogs of the World
A richly illustrated guide to the world’s frogs that includes species from every family With more than 7,600 known species, frogs exhibit an extraordinary range of forms and behaviors, from those that produce toxins so deadly that they could kill a human many times over to those that can survive being frozen in ice. Frogs of the World is an essential guide to this astonishingly diverse group of animals. An in-depth introduction covers everything from the origins and evolution of frogs to their life cycles and defense strategies. Beautiful illustrations accompany profiles of species from each family, shedding invaluable light on the enormous range of appearance, habitats, and behavior of these marvelous creatures. Features hundreds of stunning color photographs Covers taxonomy, anatomy, locomotion, reproduction, diet, and more Discusses the conservation of the world’s frogs An invaluable resource for herpetologists, naturalists, and anyone interested in amphibians
Advances in Computational Biology
This volume compiles accepted contributions for the 2nd Edition of the Colombian Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Congress CCBCOL, after a rigorous review process in which 54 papers were accepted for publication from 119 submitted contributions. Bioinformatics and Computational Biology are areas of knowledge that have emerged due to advances that have taken place in the Biological Sciences and its integration with Information Sciences. The expansion of projects involving the study of genomes has led the way in the production of vast amounts of sequence data which needs to be organized, analyzed and stored to understand phenomena associated with living organisms related to their evolution, behavior in different ecosystems, and the development of applications that can be derived from this analysis.
