«Entre ambas realidades ha pasado el arrollador laminado de la historia que, ajena a la personal vivencia de sus habitantes, ha desembocado en la forma de hoy. Entenderla no es fácil sin atender al paso del tiempo. Y eso es lo que la autora trata de decirnos [...]». Del prólogo de Ángel Martín Díaz. Los barrios no solo están hechos de arquitectura y detalles por los que normalmente pasamos de largo, sino también de las personas que los habitan. Carabanchel Bajo. De villa a barrio es la historia de su gente, esa que le da una identidad tan marcada al barrio. Una historia reflejada a través de los edificios que han visto crecer Carabanchel, mientras pasaba a integrarse dentro de la ciudad de Madrid.
«[...] esta publicación contribuye a entender cuál es el alcance del trabajo de los arquitectos hoy en día y a definir los límites de una profesión que parece que, cada vez más y como su autor indica, se expande más allá del "arte de diseñar y construir edificios". A partir de un complejo conjunto de enfoques extraídos de diversas fuentes, Álvaro Romero visibiliza el otro arquitecto: aquel que busca diferentes modelos operativos, apunta a estrategias colaborativas, introduce nuevos conceptos, establece nuevas alianzas y experimenta con nuevos tipos de herramientas». Del prólogo de Gonzalo Pardo. La arquitectura lo es todo y, sin embargo se mantiene la idea de que los arquitecto...
This is the proceedings of the XVI International Congress of Graphic Design in Architecture, EGA 2016, held in Alcalá de Henares, Spain, in June 2016. About 200 professionals and researchers from 18 different countries attended the Congress. This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of architecture and Engineering. Topics discussed are Innovations in Architecture, graphic design and architecture, history and heritage among others.
This book investigates the effects of corpus work on the process of foreign language learning in ESP settings. It suggests that observing learners at work with corpus data can stimulate discussion and re-thinking of the pedagogical implications of both the theoretical and empirical aspects of corpus linguistics. The ideas presented here are developed from the Data-Driven Learning approach introduced by Tim Johns in the early nineties. The experience of watching students perform corpus analysis provides the basis for the two main observations in the book: a) corpus work provides students with a useful source of information about ESP language features, b) the process of "search-and-discovery" implied in the method of corpus analysis may facilitate language learning and promote autonomy in learning language use. The discussion is carried out on the basis of a series of corpus-based "explorations" by students and provides suggestions for developing new tasks and tools for language learners.
A considerable amount of information has been gathered in the field of immunoneurology over recent years. This knowledge about modifications in the pathways of neuroimmune diseases has enabled the development of new therapies. In this volume leading experts present the state of the art in the field, covering all aspects from basic science to the development of better therapies.
The 1994 IUCN Red List of Threatened Animals was a major advance on its predecessors in clarity of layout and amount of information presented. This is taken further in the 1996 edition, which is also the first global compilation to use the complete new IUCN Red List category system.
This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018. The early science of chemistry and microbiology were the source of most drugs until the revolution of genetic engineering in the mid 1970s. Then biotechnology made available novel protein agents such as interferons, blood factors and monoclonal antibodies that have changed the modern pharmacy. Over the past year, a new pharmacy of oligonucleotides has emerged from the science of gene expression such as RNA splicing and RNA interference. The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...

Que quepamos por el hueco de una puerta, podamos circular por un pasillo o subir unas escaleras es, en fin, lo normal. Pero no lo es para todo el mundo. Hay personas a las que un pasillo se les hace muy estrecho o que la iluminación de una estancia les genera un ambiente hostil. La percepción espacial y el TEA es un ensayo divulgativo que investiga cómo la arquitectura puede mejorar la vida de las personas con Trastornos del Espectro Autista.
