Applied and Computational Historical Astronomy. Angewandte und computergestützte historische Astronomie.
'Computational History' derives history from data and nowadays, therefore, relies on the technologies of the digital humanities. 'Computational History of Science' addresses questions of history by evaluating historical data, e.g. for tracing back copying traditions and conclude on transfer and transformation of data and knowledge. The term 'Applied Historical Astronomy', in contrast, tries to address questions of contemporary science by evaluating historical data in comparison with most recent data. This opens new possibilities, e.g. in the search for stellar transients among historical data. In the contribution by Hoffmann & Vogt we will focus on the stellar transients among all the topics...
Transgender Athletes in Competitive Sport
While efforts to include gay and lesbian athletes in competitive sport have received significant attention, it is only recently that we have begun examining the experiences of transgender athletes in competitive sport. This book represents the first comprehensive study of the challenges that transgender athletes face in competitive sport; and the challenges they pose for this sex-segregated institution. Beginning with a discussion of the historical role that sport has played in preserving sex as a binary, the book examines how gender has been policed by policymakers within competitive athletics. It also considers how transgender athletes are treated by a system predicated on separating males...
Critical Media Pedagogy
This practical book examines how teaching media in high school English and social studies classrooms can address major challenges in our educational system. The authors argue that, in addition to providing underserved youth with access to 21st century learning technologies, critical media education will help improve academic literacy achievement in city schools. Critical Media Pedagogy presents first-hand accounts of teachers who are successfully incorporating critical media education into standards-based lessons and units. The book begins with an analysis of how media have been conceptualized and studied; it identifies the various ways that youth are practicing media, as well as how these practices are constantly increasing in sophistication. Finally, it offers concrete examples of how to develop a rigorous, standards-based content area curriculum that embraces new media practices and features media production.

Neurociencia y Criminología
Neurocriminología y neurovictimología son dos conceptos clave que forman parte de los conocimientos que todo experto en ciencias penales debe poseer, ya que los avances neurocientíficos nos muestran que los procesos de victimización tienen importantes repercusiones en el funcionamiento del cerebro, y que ello puede vulnerar los procesos cognitivos y volitivos, llegando a afectar la salud mental y las conductas de quienes sufren un delito o una violación a sus derechos humanos. A la par, hoy no podría entenderse la criminalidad sin una mirada pluridisciplinar que, desde luego, incluye el estudio del encéfalo y su relación con el ambiente. Por tal motivo, en esta obra se insiste en una...
