Relações étnico-raciais e marcadores sociais
Dando continuidade às reflexões empreendidas em um volume anterior, Relações étnico-raciais e marcadores sociais: desigualdades em foco reúne um novo conjunto de pesquisas que, a partir de diferentes campos de saber e horizontes teórico-metodológicos distintos, discutem o modo pelo qual certas diferenças são transcritas, socialmente, em desigualdades e violência simbólica. Apostando no diálogo interdisciplinar, os trabalhos aqui reunidos dão sequência às reflexões sobre discursos e práticas sociais que articulam os marcadores sociais da diferença nas mais diversas arenas. Sumário Prefácio Ana Morell Apresentação Diana Ramos de Oliveira, Debora Breder e Klever Paulo Lea...
Língua(gem) e justiça social: saberes, práticas e paradigmas v.1
Este primeiro volume da coletânea Lingua(gem) e justiça social é uma manifestação do axé temperado, cozido e enrolado em nove folhas de mamona da Editora Diálogos. Um axé que aqui é oferecido em nove alguidares, ainda fumegantes e em ebulição; um axé que é oferecido em nove textos. O axé é a força vital que todos os seres possuem. O axé é a força que nos conecta ao mundo e nele nos mantém presentes. Os nove textos que compõem esta coletânea formam um axé discursivo, político e pedagógico, nos convidando a uma agenda dialógica e interventiva no que tange o uso da língua como transe permanente para ver, ser e estar no mundo. Por isso, todos os textos apresentados, após macerarem as violências impostas pela vida na modernidade, firmam o adoxu e urgem nove cortes para a sacralização da língua e seu uso como ensinamento de esteira e de entrincheiramento, ou seja, o seu uso como justiça social.
Obesity and Cardiovascular Disease
Although cardiovascular disease remains the leading proximate cause of death in the United States, it is now estimated that obesity may be equivalent to smoking as the leading cause of preventable death in America. In light of these statistics, this reference presents our current understanding of the epidemiology, pathology, and genetics of the obe
Orthogeriatrics
This new open access edition supported by the Fragility Fracture Network aims at giving the widest possible dissemination on fragility fracture (especially hip fracture) management and notably in countries where this expertise is sorely needed. It has been extensively revised and updated by the experts of this network to provide a unique and reliable content in one single volume. Throughout the book, attention is given to the difficult question of how to provide best practice in countries where the discipline of geriatric medicine is not well established and resources for secondary prevention are scarce. The revised and updated chapters on the epidemiology of hip fractures, osteoporosis, sar...
WJP Rule of Law Index 2016
The World Justice Project (WJP) joins efforts to produce reliable data on rule of law through the WJP Rule of Law Index 2016, the sixth report in an annual series, which measures rule of law based on the experiences and perceptions of the general public and in-country experts worldwide. We hope this annual publication, anchored in actual experiences, will help identify strengths and weaknesses in each country under review and encourage policy choices that strengthen the rule of law. The WJP Rule of Law Index 2016 presents a portrait of the rule of law in each country by providing scores and rankings organized around eights factors: constraints on government powers, absence of corruption, ope...
Posthumanism and the Graphic Novel in Latin America
Latin America is experiencing a boom in graphic novels that are highly innovative in their conceptual play and their reworking of the medium. Inventive artwork and sophisticated scripts have combined to satisfy the demand of a growing readership, both at home and abroad. Posthumanism and the Graphic Novel in Latin America, which is the first book-length study of the topic, argues that the graphic novel is emerging in Latin America as a uniquely powerful force to explore the nature of twenty-first century subjectivity. The authors place particular emphasis on the ways in which humans are bound to their non-human environment, and these ideas are productively drawn out in relation to posthuman ...
Factors Affecting Neurological Aging
Factors Affecting Neurological Aging: Genetics, Neurology, Behavior, and Diet is a comprehensive reference on the genetic and behavioral features associated with neurological aging and associated disorders. This book discusses the mechanisms underlying neurological aging and provides readers with a detailed introduction to the aging of neural connections and complexities in biological circuitries, as well as the physiological, behavioral, molecular, and cellular features of neurological aging. Finally, this comprehensive resource examines the use of animal modeling of aging and neurological disease. - Provides the most comprehensive coverage on a broad range of topics related to the neuroscience of aging - Features sections on the genetic components that influence aging and diseases of aging - Focuses on neurological diseases and conditions linked to aging, environmental factors and clinical recommendations - Includes more than 500 illustrations and tables
Intestinal Lipid Metabolism
This book was stimulated by the enthusiasm shown by attendees at the meetings in Saxon River, VT, sponsored by the Federation ofAmerican Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), on the subject of the intestinal processing of lipids. When these meetings were first started in 1990, the original organizers, two of whom are editors ofthis volume (CMM and PT), had two major goals. The first was to bring together a diverse group ofinvestiga tors who had the common goal of gaining a better understanding of how the intestine ab sorbs lipids. The second was to stimulate the interest of younger individuals whom we wished to recruit into what we believed was an exciting and fruitful area ofresearch....
Endothelial Dysfunction and Inflammation
Endothelial dysfunction is broadly defined as a disruption of the balance between vasoactive mediators and a propensity towards an inflammatory state. This volume provides an overview of the fields of endothelial dysfunction and inflammation through the discussion of topics ranging from the molecular biology of activated endothelial cells to the endothelium in inflammatory disease and therapeutic approaches targeting endothelial dysfunction. Topics include: Heterogeneity of the endothelium during inflammation, oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction, biology and regulation of nitric oxide in inflammatory pathologies, endothelial dysfunction in inflammatory diseases, such as diabetes and atherosclerosis and Clinical methods used to assess endothelial function. This book brings together basic and clinical research to assist the reader in bridging connections from bench-to-bedside. Written by expert researchers in the fields of endothelial biology, inflammation research and clinical science, it serves as a useful reference for academic and industrial researchers, clinicians, and trainees in the medical profession.
