Biotechnological Utilization of Mangrove Resources

Mangroves are typically tropical coastal ecosystems found in the inter-tidal zones of river deltas and back water areas.

Ability-grouping in Primary Schools

The use of ability-grouping is currently increasing in primary schools. Teachers and teacher educators are placed in the unenviable position of having to marry research evidence suggesting that ability-grouping is ineffectual with current policy advocating this approach.This book links theory, policy and practice in a critical examination of ability-grouping practices and their implications in primary schools, with particular reference to primary mathematics. It provides an accessible text for teacher educators to support their students in engaging with the key debates and reflecting upon their practice. Key changes in structural approaches, such as the movement between streaming, setting or mixed-ability teaching arrangements, are explored in the light of political trends, bringing this up to date with a discussion of current policy and practice.

At Your Feet

Ana Cristina Cesar (1952-1983) has posthumously become one of Brazil’s best known avant-garde poets. After her suicide in 1983, her innovative, mythic, and dreamlike poetry has greatly influenced subsequent generations of writers. At Your Feet was originally published as a poetic sequence and later became part of a longer hybrid work— sometimes prose, sometimes verse—documenting the life and mind of a forcefully active literary woman. Cesar, who also worked internationally as a journalist and translator, often found inspiration in the writings of other poets, among them Emily Dickinson, Armando Freitas Filho, and Gertrude Stein. Her innovative writing has been featured in Sun and Moon’s classic anthology Nothing the Sun Could Not Explain—20 Contemporary Brazilian Poets (2000). Poet Brenda Hillman and her mother Helen Hillman (a native speaker of Portuguese) worked with Brazilian poet Sebastião Edson Macedo and translator/editor Katrina Dodson to render as faithfully as possible the intricately layered poems of this legendary writer. At Your Feet includes both the English translation and original Portuguese.

Cordão sanitário da pobreza é uma obra relevante que pretende ir além dos muros da academia, pois o tema interessa a todos que anseiam pela construção de um país plural, democrático, que atenda às necessidades básicas do seu povo. Abordar o assunto na sua extrema complexidade exige uma visão interdisciplinar e essa tarefa é amplamente realizada pelos autores que não “oferecem” respostas prontas, definitivas, aos problemas que colocam. Ao contrário, na busca de soluções, instigam a curiosidade e a criatividade dos leitores; em especial, dos responsáveis pela encenação - a pública e privada - dos responsáveis pelas mídias, dos intelectuais das mais diferentes áreas, ...
