The book addresses contemporary challenges related to chronicity in the context of life and health. The book is structured across 11 core axes to aid healthcare professionals in understanding the topic. The axes address issues such as health promotion and quality of life, the transition from ephemerality to chronicity throughout life, the presence of chronicity in childhood and adolescence, violence against transgender people, the coexistence of communicable and non-communicable chronic diseases in the community, work-related chronic diseases, chronicity in the elderly, and strategies for sustainable development in this context.

In summary, the book aims to present a comprehensive and multidimensional perspective on chronicity, providing valuable insights for the teaching, research, extension, and care sectors.
This book explores the transformation of Brazil and Argentina into two of the world’s largest producers of genetically modified (GM) crops. Systematically comparing their stories in order to explain their paths, differences, ruptures and changes, the author reveals that the emergence of the two nations as leading producers of GM crops cannot be explained by technological superiority of biotechnology; rather, their trajectories are the results of political struggles surrounding agrarian development, in which social movements and the rural poor contested the advancement of biotechnologically-based agrarian models, but have been silenced, ignored, or demobilized by a network of actors in favo...

Da análise de disposições constitucionais, verticalmente analisadas na presente obra, infere-se a obrigação do poder público a uma organização direcionada à entrega dos direitos à educação e à cultura, com atenção especial a crianças e adolescentes, o que, de ordinário, teria de ser efetivado mediante políticas públicas. Em sede infraconstitucional, sem exclusão de outras normas igualmente relevantes, abordam-se neste livro previsões constantes da lei nº 12.288/2010, que institui o Estatuto da Igualdade Racial, assim como da lei nº 9.394/1996, alterada pelas leis nº 10.639/2003 e nº 11.645/2008, estabelecendo as diretrizes e bases da educação nacional, para incluir...
When the Spanish explorers brought horses to North America, the horses were, in a sense, returning home. Beginning with their origins fifty million years ago, the wild horse has been traced from North America through Asia to the plains of SpainÕs Andalusia and then back across the Atlantic to the ranges of the American West. When given the chance, these horses simply took up residence in the landscape that their ancestors had roamed so long ago. In Wild Horses of the West, J. Edward de Steiguer provides an entertaining and well-researched look at one of the most controversial animal welfare issues of our timeÑthe protection of free-roaming horses on the WestÕs public lands. This is the fi...

"Todo esse esforço conjunto demonstra como a universidade, ante um Estado Democrático de Direito, pode se constituir em um ambiente propício para a difusão cidadã de ideias e o engajamento em políticas transicionais fundamentais para a confirmação do pro-jeto constitucional estabelecido a partir de 1988. Há muito ainda a se fazer; mas a realização do Congresso Internacional Justiça de Transição nos 25 anos da Cons-tituição de 1988 demonstrou que é possível envolver toda a comunidade acadêmica nessa luta. Nos 50 anos do golpe de 1964, essa publicação é mais um importan-te esforço de efetivação da justiça de transição no Brasil." - Emílio Peluso Neder Meyer, Marcelo Andrade Cattoni de Oliveira.
