The Road to the Land of the Mother of God
The Interoceanic Highway is many things to many people: an emblematic project during a period focused on integration, a dream realized for an isolated region, a symbol of the profound fragility of state institutions, a key cause of political corruption, and a major driver of ecological and cultural devastation. This highway links the Andean highlands with the Amazonian lowlands in southern Peru, offering an outlet for Brazil's emergent economy. While it finally brought an end to the isolation of Madre de Dios and other parts of southern Peru and the western Amazon, it was made possible by political corruption revealed in the Lava Jato scandal, and it permitted the spread of criminal business...
Vertical
Vertical will make you look at the world around you anew: this is a revolution in understanding your place in the world. Today we live in a world that can no longer be read as a two-dimensional map, but must now be understood as a series of vertical strata that reach from the satellites that encircle our planet to the tunnels deep within the ground. In Vertical, Stephen Graham rewrites the city at every level: how the geography of inequality, politics, and identity is determined in terms of above and below. Starting at the edge of earth's atmosphere and, in a series of riveting studies, descending through each layer, Graham explores the world of drones, the city from the viewpoint of an aerial bomber, the design of sidewalks and the hidden depths of underground bunkers.
Metrics for Project Control - The Atomic Watermelon
A watermelon seems green on the outside but it is red on the inside. As well as in reports, there are some indicators that are presented as if they were green due to flaws made in metrics calculation or wrong calculation function. As a result, Project Monitoring is damaged and Control is not activated to solve a problem, but, way more than a problem, a red light means a cry for help, it means a monitoring alert sent so a control action can be taken. Such a logic sequence in first of all monitoring and controlling items is not always followed and among other issues, traffic light indicators are commonly applied without the need of a precision measure. These are the atomic watermelons in projects and this book is an invitation for us to think about the way the current processing structuring organization is made in the PMBOK® Guide. We propose changes in it. You will learn about metrics and its meanings through a mix of equations and practical examples that may assist in enabling a reliable monitoring system besides a free projects´ control when atomic watermelons come up.
Nas asas da mamata
Com informações inéditas, Nas asas da Mamata reconstitui um dos maiores escândalos da política brasileira: a farra das passagens. Revelado em 2009, o caso saiu do Congresso Nacional e decolou rapidamente: expôs os abusos praticados por parlamentares com verbas de transporte aéreo, desviadas para turismo de parentes e amigos dentro e fora do Brasil e negociadas em um lucrativo mercado paralelo. O livro apresenta novos e destacados personagens e detalha o arquivamento pela Justiça dos processos sobre o caso.
Mobility and Identity in Europe
This book demonstrates that mobility in Europe is not a synonym for European mobility, showing how certain mobile individuals are more likely to develop an explicitly European identity than others. Through a series of mobile ethnographic accounts with truck drivers, musicians and MEPs, the author lays out the complexities behind assumptions about mobility and European identity, providing a clear contrast between individuals for whom this process certainly is true and others who, in spite of their high levels of mobility, do not consider themselves European, or for whom the notion of being European is simply insignificant. Ultimately, as this book shows, the enactment of a European identity, ...

O reino
Leitura fundamental para entender como funciona e o que pretende uma das mais poderosas instituições religiosas do país, com suas extensões tentaculares na política, na mídia, na sociedade e no mundo empresarial. Com mais de 10 mil templos, distribuídos em todos os estados e em quase cem países, a Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus é um gigante neopentecostal. Da réplica do Templo de Salomão, Edir Macedo dirige sua igreja com autoridade inconteste, cortejado por líderes de todas as cores ideológicas. Nesse sentido, a recente unção de Jair Bolsonaro como paladino da fé cristã — celebrada pessoalmente por Macedo — demonstra um projeto de poder iniciado há mais de quarenta ...
