La palabra gestión adquiere cada día más valor cuando se trata de dirigir y orientar la actividad deportiva. Se practica la actividad deportiva en un medio hostil o cuando menos inadecuado, con unas instalaciones deportivas que, con frecuencia, no reúnen unos parámetros adecuados para esa práctica. Para colaborar a evitar esas circunstancias, esta publicación pretende ofrecer un recorrido extenso y minucioso por los diferentes caminos que marcan el completo, pero complejo, proceso de la gestión de una instalación deportiva desde su inicio, buscando las claves necesarias para una planificación racional, recordando unos parámetros mínimos para un correcto diseño y dictando unas recomendaciones básicas para una eficiente construcción. Así pues, se trata de intentar aproximar conceptos, parámetros, soluciones y, en definitiva, claves para una mejor gestión deportiva posterior.
While many professional translators believe the ability to translate is a gift that one either has or does not have, Allison Beeby Lonsdale questions this view. In her innovative book, Beeby Lonsdale demonstrates how teachers can guide their students by showing them how insights from communication theory, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and semiotics can illuminate the translation process. Using Spanish to English translation as her example, she presents the basic principles of translation through 29 teaching units, which are prefaced by objectives, tasks, and commentaries for the teacher, and through 48 task sheets, which show how to present the material to students. Published in English.

In Darwin's Fishes, Daniel Pauly presents an encyclopaedia of ichthyology, ecology and evolution, based upon everything that Charles Darwin ever wrote about fish. Entries are arranged alphabetically and can be about, for example, a particular fish taxon, an anatomical part, a chemical substance, a scientist, a place, or an evolutionary or ecological concept. The reader can start wherever they like and are then led by a series of cross-references on a fascinating voyage of interconnected entries, each indirectly or directly connected with original writings from Darwin himself. Along the way, the reader is offered interpretation of the historical material put in the context of both Darwin's time and that of contemporary biology and ecology. This book is intended for anyone interested in fishes, the work of Charles Darwin, evolutionary biology and ecology, and natural history in general.
