O esporte é um elemento tão presente na formação e na atuação dos profissionais de educação física que acabou se consolidando uma associação direta entre esporte e educação física. Contudo, no Brasil, tanto a prática quanto o conhecimento esportivo costumam se limitar a algumas modalidades– como o futebol, o vôlei, o basquete, o handebol, a natação e o atletismo. Sendo assim, nesta obra buscamos ampliar esse espectro, discutindo não apenas acerca de outras modalidades, mas investigando também o esporte em seu aspecto histórico, social e cultural. Acompanhe-nos nestas páginas! Diretamente vinculado ao ensino de Educação Física, o esporte vem se consolidando como uma...

This book is a collection of the life's work and essential teachings of Jigoro Kano, who founded Kodokan Judo in Tokyo in 1882. Kodokan Judo was for Kano the culmination of a lifelong devotion to the jujutsu of the past, which he reorganized along educational lines while taking great care to retain its classical traditions. In doing so, he opened the path from jutsu (skill) to do (way), and broadened the horizons of knowledge until he reached the point at which he began to advocate seiryoku zenyo (maximum efficiency) and jita kyoei (mutual prosperity), which represent the universality and ideal of human existence, and are the core values of judo.
The International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib) is a pre-normative organization. 'Pre-normative' implies pioneering work in codification. This work has now been realized with the fib Model Code 2010. The objectives of the fib Model Code 2010 are to serve as a basis for future codes for concrete structures, and present new developments with regard to concrete structures, structural materials and new ideas in order to achieve optimum behaviour. The fib Model Code 2010 is now the most comprehensive code on concrete structures, including their complete life cycle: conceptual design, dimensioning, construction, conservation and dismantlement. It is expected to become an important document for both national and international code committees, practitioners and researchers. The fib Model Code 2010 was produced during the last ten years through an exceptional effort by Joost Walraven (Convener; Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands), Agnieszka Bigaj-van Vliet (Technical Secretary; TNO Built Environment and Geosciences, The Netherlands) as well as experts out of 44 countries from five continents.
This book examines how the structure of electoral institutions may affect political corruption.

This book presents a new theory of leadership and management. It provides a clearer understanding of why leaders are effective, the specific characteristics of a good leader, and how to increase effectiveness of leaders and their organizations. It incorporates such elements as the leader's personality, situational factors and stress, leader behavior, and the cognitive resource variables of intelligence, technical knowledge and skills and experience. The conditions under which leaders should be directive or nondirective in order to have an efficiently running group are also looked at.
This book explores the epistemological and ethical issues at the foundations of environmental philosophy, emphasising the conservation of biodiversity. Sahota Sarkar criticises attempts to attribute intrinsic value to nature and defends an anthropocentric position on biodiversity conservation based on an untraditional concept of transformative value. Unlike other studies in the field of environmental philosophy, this book is as much concerned with epistemological issues as with environmental ethics. It covers a broad range of topics, including problems of explanation and prediction in traditional ecology and how individual-based models and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology is transforming ecology. Introducing a brief history of conservation biology, Sarkar analyses the consensus framework for conservation planning through adaptive management. He concludes with a discussion of directions for theoretical research in conservation biology and environmental philosophy.
