  • Publisher: Editora CRV

Descubra a riqueza das variações intersexo neste trabalho esclarecedor, escrito por três autoras intersexo. Baseado em descobertas científicas e dados da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), o livro explora a diversidade do desenvolvimento sexual, desmistificando conceitos e desafiando estigmas. Por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica, as autoras destacam a diferença entre Diferenças do Desenvolvimento do Sexo (DDS) e o amplo espectro do intersexo, explorando casos congênitos e adquiridos para compreender a vivência única das pessoas intersexo. Surpreendentemente, a prevalência global de pessoas intersexo é revelada como 10,95%, desafiando estimativas anteriores. O livro oferece não apenas números impressionantes, mas também insights cruciais para a compreensão da diversidade sexual. Além de abordar questões médicas, a obra destaca a importância da educação, respeito à autonomia e reconhecimento legal para promover uma sociedade inclusiva. A linguagem respeitosa adotada pelas autoras visa criar uma narrativa que contribua para um ambiente acolhedor, livre de discriminação.

Abiotic Stress in Plants: Sustainability and Productivity

Climate change has caused fluctuations in the frequency and severity of droughts and floods, favoring extended periods of drought and extreme rainfall, rises in temperature, and associated with anthropic actions, has triggered other stressful abiotic effects, which have threatened terrestrial ecosystems and, especially agroecosystems. Considering the current environmental scenario, studies related to cultural practices with native or cultivated species have been carried out with the aim of guaranteeing sustainable development, conservation of biodiversity and natural resources, and the guarantee of food sovereignty.

Testosterone is neither the biological essence of manliness nor even the "male sex hormone." It doesn't predict competitiveness or aggressiveness, strength or sex drive. Rebecca Jordan-Young and Katrina Karkazis pry testosterone loose from more than a century of misconceptions that undermine science while making social fables seem scientific.

Gender Verification and the Making of the Female Body in Sport

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book critically explores the history of gender verification in international sport, to show how culture, politics, and science come together to produce "femaleness" and, consequently, the female body as we know it. Tracing gender verification policies and practices in sport since the 1930s till the present, the book shows how and why medical "sex tests" have been used to "verify" women athletes’ femaleness, in ways that both reflect and have shaped broader social and scientific ideas about femaleness in the process. Exploring how geopolitics, gender, class and race relations intertwined with scientific ideas about femaleness and womanhood to shape gender verification, the book shows h...

Studies on Periodontal Disease

The chapters of Studies on Periodontal Disease comprise four parts. Part 1 provides basic sciences from the general to the particular. The findings of cell culture and animal models supply the mechanism between periodontal disease and oxidative stress. In part 2, human clinical studies are mainly addressed. The effects of periodontal therapy on circulating oxidative stress are also discussed. The relationships between periodontal disease and systemic diseases are examined in part 3. The involvement of oxidative stress and inflammation are discussed through in vivo and in vitro study results. Part 4 discusses future strategies, including the effects of antioxidants and nutrition on periodontal disease. This thorough examination of the relationship between oxidative stress and periodontal disease is essential reading for researchers in oxidative stress and periodontal clinicians, alike.

Nationalism in the New World

Nationalism in the New World brings together work by scholars from the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Europe to discuss the common problem of how the nations of the Americas grappled with the basic questions of nationalism: Who are we? How do we imagine ourselves as a nation? Debates over the origins and meanings of nationalism have emerged at the forefront of the humanities and social sciences over the past two decades. However, these discussions have been mostly about nations in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, or Africa. In addition, their focus is usually on the violence spawned by ethnic and religious strains of nationalism, which have been largely absent in the Americas. The c...
