Contact Strategies

Around the year 1800, independent Native groups still effectively controlled about half the territory of the Americas. How did they maintain their political autonomy and territorial sovereignty, hundreds of years after the arrival of Europeans? In a study that spans the eighteenth to twentieth centuries and ranges across the vast interior of South America, Heather F. Roller examines this history of power and persistence from the vantage point of autonomous Native peoples in Brazil. The central argument of the book is that Indigenous groups took the initiative in their contacts with Brazilian society. Rather than fleeing or evading contact, Native peoples actively sought to appropriate what w...

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology

  • Publisher: Springer

This book presents a wide-ranging series of illustrative clinical cases that cover the main pathologies and areas of interest in diagnostic and therapeutic neuroradiology. The aim is to enable the reader to learn important lessons from real cases that exemplify the caseload and capabilities of a large, modern neuroradiology department. The cases are presented in a quiz format. For each one, the first page documents clinical and imaging findings, followed by questions concerning these findings, differential diagnosis, and other aspects. On the second page, the answers are provided, with concise explanation and discussion. Attention is also drawn to the relevant available literature. Most of the cases derive from the Department of Neuroradiology at the University Hospital Center of Porto (Portugal), which is staffed by a large multidisciplinary team providing cutting-edge services. In addition, some cases from other centers have been included to ensure wider representation of experience. The book will be of particular value for residents and fellows in neuroradiology, radiology, neurology, and neurosurgery.

Microbial Endophytes and Plant Growth: Beneficial Interactions and Applications explains how modern molecular tools can unlock the plant's microbial network, building the bridge between plant and environment. Chapters describe the usefulness of the endophytic microbiome of different crops, including cereals, vegetables and horticulture, and delve into the latest research surrounding the applications of plant-microbe interactions in improving plant growth. Other topics discussed include root endophytes and their role in plant fitness, seed associated endophytes and their functions, and microbial endophytes and nanotechnology. This is a one-stop resource for scientists wanting access to the latest research in plant microbiology. The book also provides advanced techniques for using multi-omics approaches to study plant-microbe interactions, providing readers with a practical approach. - Outlines multi-omics approaches to study plant endophytes interactions - Describes the efficacy of endophytes to combat biotic and abiotic factors - Defines the prominent role of endophytic microbes to improve plant growth

Toxicology of Amphibian Tadpoles

  • Publisher: CRC Press

Anuran amphibians are among the animal groups with the highest rate of population decline on the planet. Among the factors driving this decline are environmental pollutants, whose negative effects on larvae and tadpoles are still relatively little studied. This is the first book devoted entirely to studying the effects of environmental pollutants on amphibian tadpoles. Throughout its 14 chapters, various aspects of the toxic effects of different classes of environmental contaminants are explored, such as the toxicokinetics of toxic compounds in tadpoles and their health effects, which may result in negative consequences at populations level.

Die Rettung der Botokudensprache: Von der Wiederherstellung einer bedrohten indigenen Sprache anhand eines historischen Wörterbuchs

Diese Studie schafft die Grundlagen fur die Wiederherstellung einer im 19. Jahrhundert nur mangelhaft dokumentierten indigenen Sprache Sudostbrasiliens. Untersuchungsgegenstand ist das Worterbuch der Botokudensprache. Es wurde vom deutschen Brasilienauswanderer Bruno Rudolph um 1900 verfasst, als die indigene Ethnie der Botokuden (Borum) bereits auszusterben drohte. Neben einer generellen Einfuhrung zu den indigenen Ethnien und Sprachen in Brasilien werden die Botokuden ausfuhrlich vorgestellt und sprachliche Aspekte des Krenak, der einzigen nach modernen linguistischen Methoden erforschten Sprache der letzten uberlebenden Subgruppe der Botokuden, erlautert. Ausserdem werden der Autor und der Entstehungskontext des Worterbuchs beleuchtet und dabei neue Forschungsergebnisse zur Geschichte der deutsch-brasilianischen Erforschung indigener Sprachen prasentiert. Es erfolgt eine umfassende metalexikographische Analyse des Worterbuchs und die Aufbereitung eines speziellen Grundwortschatzes, der zur Wiederherstellung der Botokudensprache dient. Schliesslich wird die eigentliche Restitution exemplarisch an einem Lexem aus dem Worterbuch bis hin zu seiner phonetischen Form durchgefuhr
