"Há 30 anos, mais precisamente em 11.09.1990, era sancionada a Lei 8.078, mais conhecida como Código de Defesa do Consumidor, entrando em vigor 6 meses depois. Ao contrário do que muitos possam pensar, não se tratava nem de uma novidade no cenário jurídico, nem de uma panaceia para todos os males que afligem todos nós, afinal de contas, consumidores de bens e serviços a todo instante de nossas vidas. Com efeito, quando nossa comissão, foi designada em junho de 1988, pelo então Ministro da Justiça Paulo Brossard, por proposta do extinto Conselho Nacional de Defesa do Consumidor, a tarefa se nos apresentou como sendo de grande responsabilidade, mas não cuidamos de reinventar a roda...
O Direito Processual passa por uma profunda transformação nos dias atuais, migrando da tradicional centralidade do Poder Judiciário na solução dos conflitos para a consolidação da Justiça Multiportas, que agrega outros agentes a esse cenário.
This book is about the more than 4,000 beach systems that form most of the 9000 km long Brazilian coast. It focuses on the beaches of each of the seventeen coastal states and three oceanic islands, their nature, morphodynamics and status. It is a must for anyone who wants to know more about this great coast and its beach systems. This is the first book ever written about the beach systems of Brazil, and actually the very first about the beaches of an entire country. The Brazilian coast extends from the mighty Amazon River and its muddy shores in the north to one of the world’s longest sandy beaches in the southern Rio Grande do Sul. It contains every beach type from wave to tide-dominated which range in size from small embayed beaches to long barrier beaches. The book is written by leading Brazilian academics and researchers and aims at the university level market, as well as coastal scientists, engineers and managers. Standard scientific terminology is used to describe the coast and its beaches. It is illustrated with more than 400 original figures and serves as a benchmark text on the Brazilian coast.

This book is a pioneer attempt to bring forward the first synthesis on the most diverse and threatened mountain top vegetation of South America, the rupestrian grasslands. It brings to light the state of the art information on this ecosystem geology, soil formation and distribution, environmental filters that lead to biodiversity, species interactions and their fine tuned adaptations to survive the harsh mountain environment. The human dimensions of the rupestrian grassland are also addressed, including the anthropogenic threats that may irreversibly impact biodiversity and ecosystem services. The book also highlights the ongoing studies on ecological restoration and first attempt to model the impacts of climate change on its speciose biota.
Este livro, que levou vinte e sete anos de pesquisas genealógicas, será de grande relevância, uma vez que vai documentar e registrar a genealogia de grandes famílias de quase todo o Centro-Oeste Mineiro, e ainda, narrar um pouco de sua história, de sua etnia e de sua cultura. Seu público alvo será, além, de seus próprios descendentes, também de futuros pesquisadores de seus próprios ramos genealógicos e estudiosos sobre o assunto. Sobretudo, será de grande importância para a História de Minas e do Brasil, na medida em que essas famílias deram ao nosso país elementos de realce na vida pública, artística, cultural, etc. Durante todos estes longos anos de pesquisas, que dediquei e dedico as Famílias Rabelo, Vasconcelos, Gonçalves da Costa e outras, sejam através de batistérios paroquiais, arquivos públicos, prefeituras e cartórios, tomando depoimento de várias pessoas, principalmente dos mais velhos, cujas memórias remontam a um passado mais distante, dando-me incentivo e informações importantes para a construção desta obra.
Stem cells are fascinating cell types. They can replicate themselves forever while retaining the potential to generate progeny with speci?c functions. Because of these special properties, stem cells have been subjects of intensive investigation, from understanding basic mechanisms underlying tissue generation, to modeling human diseases, to application for cell replacement therapy. Stem cells come in different forms. For example, mouse embryonic stem cells can general all cell types in a body, either in a dish or when put back into mouse embryos. On the other hand, neural stem cells in the adult brain generate neurons and glia cells that contribute to the brain’s plasticity. Rapid progress...
This book includes selecting the articles accepted for presentation and discussion at WCQR2021, held on January 20th to 22nd, 2021 (Virtual Conference). The World Conference on Qualitative Research (WCQR) is an annual event that aims to bring together researchers, academics and professionals, promoting the sharing and discussion of knowledge, new perspectives, experiences and innovations on Qualitative Research. WCQR2021 featured four main application fields (Education, Health, Social Sciences, and Engineering/Technology) and seven main subjects: Rationale and Paradigms of Qualitative Research; Systematization of Approaches with Qualitative Studies; Qualitative and Mixed Methods Research; Data Analysis Types; Innovative Processes of Qualitative Data Analysis; Qualitative Research in Web Context; Qualitative Analysis with Software Support. The book is a valuable resource for everyone interested in qualitative research, emphasizing Computer-Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software (CAQDAS).
Leishmania parasites are a group of pathogens responsible for diseases known as leishmaniases. These pathologies affect predominantly the poorest people, mainly in tropical countries, exerting a high impact on mortality and morbidity rates. The absence of a vaccine and the reduced drug arsenal, associated with the diversity in the clinical presentation and hosts, highlight the complexity of the disease and its position as a worldwide public health problem. This book addresses different aspects related to leishmaniases, such as epidemiology, immunopathology, and the challenges of disease in humans and domestic animals. The information presented contributes to a better understanding of the Leishmania parasites and different clinical forms produced by infection, as well as their distribution around the world and their impacts on public health.
