The book addresses contemporary challenges related to chronicity in the context of life and health. The book is structured across 11 core axes to aid healthcare professionals in understanding the topic. The axes address issues such as health promotion and quality of life, the transition from ephemerality to chronicity throughout life, the presence of chronicity in childhood and adolescence, violence against transgender people, the coexistence of communicable and non-communicable chronic diseases in the community, work-related chronic diseases, chronicity in the elderly, and strategies for sustainable development in this context. It discusses the importance of palliative care for patients facing finitude and explores the role of spirituality in coping with chronicity. In summary, the book aims to present a comprehensive and multidimensional perspective on chronicity, providing valuable insights for the teaching, research, extension, and care sectors.

Este não é um livro comum sobre o ‘cuidado’. Resultado da premiada tese de doutorado da autora, é leitura obrigatória para quem se interessa pelas teorias do cuidado. As reflexões trazidas pela autora descortinam muitas das questões ‘esquecidas’ pelas teóricas feministas quando o assunto envolve a desconstrução do uso do tempo na tarefa do cuidado. Aqui os ‘múltiplos do cuidado’ se revelam entrelaçados à questão da deficiência, em especial da deficiência intelectual, o papel das mães que cuidam e as próprias temporalidades implicadas nas várias dimensões da construção da vida adulta de pessoas com deficiência intelectual que buscam por (ou vão morar em) uma moradia assistida.”
O crescente interesse da antropologia por ciência e tecnologia é discutido nesta coletânea em diferentes abordagens, escalas de análise e contextos empíricos nacionais e transnacionais. Ao escutar os usuários das novas tecnologias - desde mulheres grávidas recorrendo ao ultrassom até presidiários sendo identificados por suas "impressões digitais genéticas" - os autores procuram entender os meandros da produção dessas inovações e os efeitos delas na vida real. Quer versem sobre a artificialidade/naturalidade da menstruação, a unidade de nosso código genético ou a (in)falibilidade das neurociências, os artigos são formulados para provocar dúvidas sobre temas raramente problematizados. E convidam o leitor - leigo ou especialista - a participar do debate.
Las elecciones de 1973 en Argentina no eran solo el retorno a la democracia, sino también el regreso del peronismo al juego electoral. El partido necesitaba reorganizarse a lo largo de todo el país. Prohibido de participar en las elecciones, Perón dibuja las principales candidaturas para todos los distritos. La provincia de Santa Fe nunca fue fácil para el General. En una jugada inesperada, designa a un candidato extrapartidario, tras lo cual se producen rupturas y realineamientos internos. El peronismo rápidamente se convierte en un escenario de disputas entre la juventud que conduce Montoneros y la estructura sindical, a lo que se sumará el lopezrreguismo. En este contexto, que inclu...

th FM 2009, the 16 International Symposium on Formal Methods, marked the 10th an- versary of the First World Congress on Formal Methods that was held in 1999 in Toulouse, France. We wished to celebrate this by advertising and organizing FM 2009 as the Second World Congress in the FM series, aiming to once again bring together the formal methods communities from all over the world. The statistics displayed in the table on the next page include the number of countries represented by the Programme Committee members, as well as of the authors of submitted and accepted papers. Novel this year was a special track on tools and industrial applications. Subm- sions of papers on these topics were especially encouraged, but not given any special treatment. (It was just as hard to get a special track paper accepted as any other paper.) What we did promote, however, was a discussion of how originality, contri- tion, and soundness should be judged for these papers. The following questions were used by our Programme Committee.
