Cactus – Botany and Cultivation
Cactus plants have intrigued marking due to their great capacity to survive in harsh environments, their usefulness and, also their exotic beauty. In response to an increased demand for knowledge about these plants this book presents practical information on cultivation of cacti successfully. This work, richly illustrated with drawings and pictures, is a key tool for those who seek references on the cultivation and botany of Cactaceae, keeping in mind that publications on this subject are very rare
Darcy Ribeiro, Civilization and Nation
This book introduces the life and work of Darcy Ribeiro (1922–1997), one of the foremost exponents of Brazilian/Latin American Social thought in the 20th century. Ribeiro was an anthropologist, indigenist ethnographer, social scientist, and planner and creator of universities and schools and held various political offices. This book examines Ribeiro’s work in conversation with other great names of Latin American critical thought and introduces the contemporary epistemological movement he inspired, ‘Modernity-Coloniality-Decoloniality’. It presents the 12 years of Latin American exile to which he was subjected in the 1960s to 1970s, highlighting the fame he gained as a reformer of universities on the continent. Finally, the book builds two new dialogues unheard of, one with Black Brazilian intellectuals and the other with contemporary post(de) colonial studies. This book will appeal to all those interested in studying global asymmetries, social inequalities, and obstacles to development in Latin America. Scholars and students of Sociology, Social Theory, Anthropology, Latin American Studies, Political History, and Education will find it useful.
TRATADO PARA A REALIZAÇÃO EFETIVA DO DIREITO NO MEIO AMBIENTE
La obra es una recopilación de artículos de diversos pensadores que aportan una preocupación por el derecho fundamental a un medio ambiente sano y por la sociedad actual. Varios temas son abordados desde la perspectiva de diversos países, aportando una visión importante para la cooperación entre las naciones con el fin de minimizar los problemas socio-ambientales derivados de la sociedad de consumo contemporánea. Concluimos que debe haber un cambio de racionalidad, donde las personas entiendan su función en la sociedad como ciudadanos participativos. Estas funciones de participación, ya sea a través de políticas públicas locales que les hagan sentir que pertenecen, o a través de una idea de cooperación social basada en el hecho de que estos ciudadanos interactúan en torno al bien común, la solidaridad y la empatía. Otro elemento que necesita cambios y una resignificación es la forma del sistema capitalista centrado en la visión de lucro de las grandes corporaciones que crean patrones de consumo, cuyo único objetivo es el lucro, sin importar lo que pueda ocurrir en la esfera social y ambiental”.

Adaptation in Natural and Artificial Systems
Genetic algorithms are playing an increasingly important role in studies of complex adaptive systems, ranging from adaptive agents in economic theory to the use of machine learning techniques in the design of complex devices such as aircraft turbines and integrated circuits. Adaptation in Natural and Artificial Systems is the book that initiated this field of study, presenting the theoretical foundations and exploring applications. In its most familiar form, adaptation is a biological process, whereby organisms evolve by rearranging genetic material to survive in environments confronting them. In this now classic work, Holland presents a mathematical model that allows for the nonlinearity of...
Home Reading Service
In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
Mechanisms and Mediators of Neuropathic Pain
Numerous improvements in our understanding of the mechanisms that underlie neuropathic pain states have come from the development of animal models, most of which involve partial peripheral nerve injury. The animal models have shown that nerve injury initiates a cascade of events resulting in altered neurochemistry and molecular biology of the peripheral neurons, the dorsal root ganglion cell, and changes in neurotransmitter and receptor expression in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Moreover, nerve injury produces anatomical changes with functional consequences. This volume summarises the current understanding of the pathophysiological processes in the peripheral and central nervous system that contribute to the neuropathic pain. It provides a timely review of neuropathic pain mechanisms, written by experts in the field.
