Deep knowledge of the chemical composition, nutrients, physical properties, toxicology, and microbiological composition of food allows for the production of safe, high-quality foods. This knowledge is fundamental when producing, preserving, manipulating, and distributing food substances, especially to reduce the risks to consumer health. The full extent of the effects on the composition of foods treated by new technologies is still unknown and it must be considered to guarantee that food is produced safely. Descriptive Food Science gives an in-depth insight into this field. Section 1 focuses on the quality of various foods and Section 2 centers on how different technological treatments affect the quality of food.

Mr. Babenco – Solilóquio a Dois Sem Um é um livro de memórias do cineasta Hector Babenco (1946-2016). A obra é composta de conversas que ele e a atriz Bárbara Paz, sua mulher, tiveram no fim da vida do diretor de Pixote – até o último jantar do casal. Provocado pelas perguntas de Bárbara, Babenco vai contando sobre sua infância na Argentina, a descoberta do primeiro câncer, os bastidores de seus filmes. É ela quem organiza o livro, pontuado por este diálogo íntimo sobre a vida e obra do cineasta responsável ainda por filmes como O Beijo da Mulher Aranha, Carandiru, O Passado e Meu Amigo Hindu, o último dele. A obra traz também poemas inéditos escritos por Babenco na juventude – em espanhol e em português – e alguns registros fotográficos.

Entrecruzando observação participante, análise de práticas e documentos e realização de entrevistas qualitativas, Cineclube em Movimento reverbera o papel político e didático-pedagógico do trabalho imagético e dialógico na educação básica. Em um movimento de harmonia entre Cinema e Sociologia, o cineclube ganha potência como um lugar lúdico e crítico de aprendizagem, tecido no diálogo entre os sujeitos. Sem a mesma relação de encantamento intersujeitos, a sala de aula, em grande parte, é percebida como um espaço onde o monólogo do/a professor/a é a didática recorrente. A partir do diálogo entre educadores/as e educandos/as, o cineclube se apresenta como um espaço d...
