MEMÓRIAS, SENSIBILIDADES E EDUCAÇÃO
Nesta tessitura de conhecimentos, que apresenta como fio condutor o pensamento complexo de Edgar Morin, os autores abordam diversos temas ligados ao mundo da educação e convidam os leitores a pensar e repensar sobre suas diferentes dimensões. Uma obra criativa e sensível, fruto do trabalho de um grupo de pesquisadores da Universidade Nove de Julho (UNINOVE) que acredita na Educação como cerne do processo de formação humana, como elemento indispensável para superação dos desafios contemporâneos e para construção de uma sociedade mais justa.
QUESTÕES E PRÁTICAS EDUCACIONAIS EM TEMPOS DE PANDEMIA
Mais do que revelar invisibilidades, mazelas e complexidades sociais nunca antes manifestadas, a pandemia do SARS-CoV-2 trouxe à tona a imensa fragilidade daquilo que chamamos de civilização. Não obstante, os desdobramentos arrasadores provocados pelo avanço da doença esgarçaram as estruturas vivenciais, às quais estávamos historicamente atados, e revelaram, de forma concreta, as inexoráveis relações de interdependência que regem o tecido social, indo de encontro com a atitude egoística e individualista que tem despontado mais e mais na sociedade contemporânea. A nosso juízo, de um lado, a pandemia criou as condições objetivas para acentuar a desigualdade social e, do outro...
Optimization of Behavioral, Biobehavioral, and Biomedical Interventions
This book presents a framework for development, optimization, and evaluation of behavioral, biobehavioral, and biomedical interventions. Behavioral, biobehavioral, and biomedical interventions are programs with the objective of improving and maintaining human health and well-being, broadly defined, in individuals, families, schools, organizations, or communities. These interventions may be aimed at, for example, preventing or treating disease, promoting physical and mental health, preventing violence, or improving academic achievement. This volume introduces the multiphase optimization strategy (MOST), pioneered at The Methodology Center at the Pennsylvania State University, as an alternativ...
Neuroprotection
Dear Colleagues, The brain is vulnerable to injury. Following injury in the brain, apoptosis or necrosis may occur easily, leading to various functional disabilities. Neuronal death is associated with a number of neurological disorders including hypoxic ischemia, epileptic seizures, and neurodegenerative diseases. The brain subjected to injury is regarded to be responsible for the alterations in neurotransmission processes, resulting in functional changes. Oxidative stress produced by reactive oxygen species has been shown to be related to the death of neurons in traumatic injury, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, scavenging or decreasing free radicals may be crucial for pre...
The Three Marias
Through this translation of As Três Marias the literary achievements of Rachel de Queiroz may at last be judged and appreciated by the English-reading public. Since none of her four novels has previously been translated into English, The Three Marias will be, for many non-Brazilians, an introduction to this nationally known South American author whose books have been widely praised for their artistic merits. Her literary works are colored by her projected personality, by an intense feeling for her own people, by an omnipresent social consciousness, and by personal experiences in the arid backlands of her native state of Ceará. Basing this story on certain of her own recollections from the nineteen-twenties, Rachel de Queiroz tells of a girl growing up in the seaport town of Fortaleza, in northeastern Brazil. Fred P. Ellison, whose special field is Brazilian and Spanish-American literature, has captured in his translation the author's graceful style and simplicity of language, and has successfully retained the perspective of an idealistic and gradually maturing girl.

Bacterial Protein Toxins
In recent years remarkable progress has been accomplished with respect to our knowledge about bacterial protein toxins. This refers especially to structural aspects of protein toxins but also holds true for genetics, molecular biology and biochemical mechanisms underlying the action of toxins. This volume covers the very current and exciting aspects of up-to-date bacterial toxicology and comprehensively reviews the most important bacterial protein toxins such as the intracellular acting toxins which exhibit enzyme activity, as well as those toxins that interact with cell plasma membranes by damaging the membranes (pore formation) or stimulating cell receptors (superantigens). This is the most current reference work on these important bacterial protein toxins, which are presented from the point of view of different disciplines such as pharmacology, microbiology, cell biology and protein chemistry.
