A presente obra reúne e abarca capítulos que abordam diversos temas educacionais e interdisciplinares com as diversas áreas do conhecimento e níveis de escolaridade. Deste modo, integram os conhecimentos que contribuem esclarecer e orientar, de modo aprofundado, os recursos de aperfeiçoamento tão necessários para auxiliar no processo de ensino e aprendizagem tanto para os profissionais evolvidos ou interessados em Educação. Assim, entende-se que a interdisciplinaridade presente nos capítulos desta obra tornam-se instrumentos fundamentais para promover a atuação conjunta com diversos campos do saber, especialmente frutífero quando são aplicados na vivência escolar ou fora dela para a construção dos conhecimentos e na obtenção dos resultados educacionais esperados.
A publicação de um texto técnico ou científico é uma das formas mais utilizadas para transmitir à comunidade o conhecimento adquirido durante o desenvolvimento de um projeto ou de uma pesquisa. O compartilhamento de conhecimento promove o acelerado desenvolvimento da sociedade, além de um crescimento pessoal e profissional através das trocas de aprendizados. Portanto, neste livro intitulado “Tópicos Especiais em Engenharia: inovações e avanços tecnológicos – Vol. III” são compartilhados conhecimentos interdisciplinares adquiridos por cada autor durante o desenvolvimento de seus estudos. A abrangência deste volume envolve diversos temas voltados as engenharias, onde os pe...
Nematology being an established discipline covers a wide range of area ranging from basic aspect to the advanced and applied aspects involving recent advances in molecular techniques. This book discusses the following topics: the role of nematodes in our life (in agriculture, ecosystem functioning, experimental biology, ecological studies, pest management programs, or biocontrol), identification of GRSPs in nematode genomes, novel way for the diagnosis of pathogenic nematodes involving various recent molecular techniques, other methodologies for successful control of termites, evolution of plant-parasitic nematodes, viability of adult filarial nematode parasites, the impact of plant-parasitic nematodes on crops, and harnessing useful rhizosphere microorganisms for nematode control. The book also encompasses on classical study, molecular study, bioinformatics in nematology, biodiversity analysis, and culturing of nematodes in laboratory condition.
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
Textiles are ubiquitous materials that many of us take for granted in our everyday lives. We rely on our clothes to protect us from the environment and use them to enhance our appearance. Textiles also find applications in transport, healthcare, construction, and many other industries. The revised and updated 2nd Edition of The Chemistry of Textile Fibres highlights the trend towards the synthesis, from renewable resources, of monomers for making synthetic fibres. It contains new information on the influence of legislation and the concerns of environmental organisations on the use of chemicals in the textile industry. New sections on genetically modified cotton, anti-microbial materials and ...
The book looks at the history of knitting and how the process has evolved to the latest developments. The chapters discuss the principles involved in all types of knitting machines and the different types of loops and knitted structures. The science and quality aspects of knitting, calculations related to knitting, and the mechanics of knitting are also examined.
This is a compilation of bibliographic (historical and descriptive) information for the minerals first described from Brazil; it includes both valid and invalid, discredited species, unnamed, unidentified, problematic minerals, and so on. This work brings together as much data as possible concerning type mineral species. It will save future researchers a lot of work because it contains data from many publications that are difficult to obtain.
Coloproctology is a surgical specialty which dynamically changes every few years. There is a profusion of colorectal textbooks but specialty series on particularly complex topics as well as on the specialized management approach for trainees and training colorectal surgeons are actually few. The aim of this text is a superior quality colorectal book written by world experts targeted at senior surgical and colorectal trainees and young consultant coloproctologists in current areas of subspecialty expertise. The structure of the chapters is current and is based on what does not appear and is not addressed in current colorectal textbooks. This series has proven useful in areas already represent...
When I conceived this book, what I had in mind was what I did not know about coffee-parasitic nematodes (CPNs). Indeed, after reading many papers and several chapters in books, I felt far from having a comprehensive understanding of the subject. Not only would it be a daunting task to retrieve the numerous articles, reports, theses and dissertations on CPNs published since 1878, but it would also be impossible to learn, on my own, from all the enormous experience acquired by nematologists and coffee growers in so many countries. Therefore, this book is dedicated to those with restless minds, who want to know more about CPNs and their importance in coffee production worldwide. This book has b...
