Provides in-depth clinical reviews on pancreatobiliary neoplastic pathology, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
Paula
"Durante doce meses interminables, Isabel Allende vio como se escapaba la vida de su hija, Paula, atacada por una rara enfermedad genetica. En este texto, escrito a modo de carta, la autora chilena evoca para su hija la historia de su familia y de su propia vida, relata sus recuerdos mas intimos, recrea las figuras de sus padres y abuelos, la casa de su infancia, su juventud, sus primeros amores,..."
In the Midst of Winter
New York Times and worldwide bestselling author Isabel Allende returns with a sweeping novel that journeys from present-day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil that offers “a timely message about immigration and the meaning of home” (People). During the biggest Brooklyn snowstorm in living memory, Richard Bowmaster, a lonely university professor in his sixties, hits the car of Evelyn Ortega, a young undocumented immigrant from Guatemala, and what at first seems an inconvenience takes a more serious turn when Evelyn comes to his house, seeking help. At a loss, the professor asks his tenant, Lucia Maraz, a fellow academic from Chile, for her advice. As these three lives intertwine, each will discover truths about how they have been shaped by the tragedies they witnessed, and Richard and Lucia will find unexpected, long overdue love. Allende returns here to themes that have propelled some of her finest work: political injustice, the art of survival, and the essential nature of—and our need for—love.
San Miguel de Allende
"An exploration of the intersections of economic development and national identity formation in San Miguel de Allende during the twentieth century which analyzes both the Mexican and the foreign population within national, international, and transnational contexts"--
Chilean New Song and the Question of Culture in the Allende Government
Focusing on the cultural debate within the left during the Popular Unity government in Chile (1970-73), Chilean New Song and the Question of Culture in the Allende Government situates the discourses and artistic production linked to the Chilean New Song movement, in order to demonstrate that the musicians were part of the committed intelligentsia. Thus, they actively participated in the discussion and proposal of ways to integrate culture in the revolutionary process, playing an important political and cultural role. The analysis is mainly based on the government-friendly press and on records released between 1970 and 1973, verifying how the main trends observed in the cultural debate were expressed in the movement; the extent to which the positions defended by the musicians have been in tune with governmental purposes; and if they have in fact influenced the cultural policies debated and pursued by Popular Unity.
Psychedelic Chile
Patrick Barr-Melej here illuminates modern Chilean history with an unprecedented chronicle and reassessment of the sixties and seventies. During a period of tremendous political and social strife that saw the election of a Marxist president followed by the terror of a military coup in 1973, a youth-driven, transnationally connected counterculture smashed onto the scene. Contributing to a surging historiography of the era's Latin American counterculture, Barr-Melej draws on media and firsthand interviews in documenting the intertwining of youth and counterculture with discourses rooted in class and party politics. Focusing on "hippismo" and an esoteric movement called Poder Joven, Barr-Melej ...
Cybernetic Revolutionaries
A historical study of Chile's twin experiments with cybernetics and socialism, and what they tell us about the relationship of technology and politics. In Cybernetic Revolutionaries, Eden Medina tells the history of two intersecting utopian visions, one political and one technological. The first was Chile's experiment with peaceful socialist change under Salvador Allende; the second was the simultaneous attempt to build a computer system that would manage Chile's economy. Neither vision was fully realized—Allende's government ended with a violent military coup; the system, known as Project Cybersyn, was never completely implemented—but they hold lessons for today about the relationship b...
Comédie à Bologne
Trop pris par son activité militante à la C.G.T., Gabriel n’a plus le temps d’écrire, mais il a toujours celui de rêver. Alors, il imagine qu’il pourrait écrire l’histoire de Louis, écrivant le roman de Claude en train d’écrire, Robert écrivant l’arrivée d’André à Bologne. Parcourant ainsi en tous sens les cercles de l’imaginaire en compagnie de femmes, qui ne sont jamais ni tout à fait la même, ni tout à fait une autre, il finit par mettre à jour les véritables raisons qu’il a de ne plus écrire. Réflexion sur la littérature, mais aussi sur l’amour, l’érotisme, la politique, le communisme, la peinture italienne du Quattrocento, le livre pourrait n’être qu’un jeu intellectuel si, parmi les drôleries, les jeux de mots, les perspectives en trompe-l’œil et en trompe-l’esprit, ne finissait par se dessiner l’inquiétude d’un homme qui cherche passionnément les réponses honnêtes aux questions qu’il se pose. Au bout du parcours, Gabriel renonce à écrire...
Models and Phenomenology for Conventional and High-temperature Superconductivity
The search for microscopic models to explain the many superconducting substances has introduced seminal concepts and techniques in many-body physics and in statistical mechanics. The complexity of the high-temperature superconductors has required a remarkable refinement of experimental techniques in order to allow a reliable characterization of the samples, and is partly the reason why so many different microscopic models have so far been proposed. This Enrico Fermi Course on Superconductivity was provided an up-to date presentation of selected experimental and theoretical theories on the (so called) conventional superconductivity and on the high temperature superconductivity. The attention ...
