El universo fragmentado en cuentos
El libro de Hernán España evoca temas y enigmas cuya fuente emana de la ciencia ficción; además de los ecos nominales y temáticos de la ciencia ficción, el autor incursiona por los mitos, esa religión-ficción de nuestros poetas antiguos. Aquí algunos mitos se reactualizan: Ulises, Dédalo, Prometeo, Teseo, Eva.
Guía para navegantes: anotaciones ilustradas en torno a lo digital
Dirigido a estudiantes, docentes y profesionales de diseño, arte, publicidad, ingeniería, comunicación y áreas afines, Guía para navegantes: anotaciones ilustradas en torno a lo digital se suma a la discusión de diversas posturas en relación a lo tecnológico –enmarcado en el terreno de lo digital– mediante una navegación por las principales posturas teóricas y algunos conceptos considerados relevantes en los últimos años. Cada aporte va acompañado de una ilustración creada con deleite y perspicacia y si bien el texto y la imagen se combinan para tejer un mismo discurso, son bienvenidas nuevas interpretaciones.
Cyberpragmatics
Cyberpragmatics is an analysis of Internet-mediated communication from the perspective of cognitive pragmatics. It addresses a whole range of interactions that can be found on the Net: the web page, chat rooms, instant messaging, social networking sites, 3D virtual worlds, blogs, videoconference, e-mail, Twitter, etc. Of special interest is the role of intentions and the quality of interpretations when these Internet-mediated interactions take place, which is often affected by the textual properties of the medium. The book also analyses the pragmatic implications of transferring offline discourses (e.g. printed paper, advertisements) to the screen-framed space of the Net. And although the main framework is cognitive pragmatics, the book also draws from other theories and models in order to build up a better picture of what really happens when people communicate on the Net. This book will interest analysts doing research on computer-mediated communication, university students and researchers undergoing post-graduate courses or writing a PhD thesis.

Decolonial Feminisms, Power and Place
This book draws on participatory ethnographic research to understand how rural Colombian women work to dismantle the coloniality of power. It critically examines the ways in which colonial feminisms have homogenized the "category of woman,” ignoring the intersecting relationship of class, race, and gender, thereby excluding the voices of “subaltern women” and upholding existing power structures. Supplementing that analysis are testimonials from rural Colombian women who speak about their struggles for sovereignty and against territorial, sexual, and racialized violence enacted upon their land and their bodies. By documenting the stories of rural women and centering their voices, this book seeks to dismantle the coloniality of power and gender, and narrate and imagine decolonial feminist worlds. Scholars in gender studies, rural studies, and post-colonial studies will find this work of interest.
XIII Mediterranean Conference on Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing 2013
The general theme of MEDICON 2013 is "Research and Development of Technology for Sustainable Healthcare". This decade is being characterized by the appearance and use of emergent technologies under development. This situation has produced a tremendous impact on Medicine and Biology from which it is expected an unparalleled evolution in these disciplines towards novel concept and practices. The consequence will be a significant improvement in health care and well-fare, i.e. the shift from a reactive medicine to a preventive medicine. This shift implies that the citizen will play an important role in the healthcare delivery process, what requires a comprehensive and personalized assistance. In...
Biofuel Production Technologies: Critical Analysis for Sustainability
Production and utilization of sustainable energy toward maintaining a clean environment is a major challenge. At the same time, the continued depletion of fossil fuels and the global dependency on non-renewable fuels is a chief concern. Moreover, the long-term economic and environmental issues associated with the high utilization of fossil fuel, such as global warming, are also important, particularly in the context of the predicted increase in the global population to around 5 billion by 2050. In recent years, researchers have been investigating alternative, renewable fuels to replace fossil fuels. Of the various options, biofuels are especially attractive due to their low production costs ...
