El presente libro recoge las memorias del V Coloquio de Infancia: "Las palabras, las niñas y los niños: canciones y rondas, poemas y relatos, dibujos y libros", realizado el 25 de mayo de 2017, organizado por la Cátedra Unesco en Desarrollo del Niño y la Maestría en Infancia y Cultura de la Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas. Este evento académico se propuso generar reflexiones y compartir resultados de las investigaciones del grupo "Lenguaje, Discurso y Saberes".
¿Qué hacen los niños y las niñas cuando navegan en Internet? Qué páginas web frecuentan? Cuáles son los lugares de conexión más usuales? Con qué personas establecen relaciones on-line? Son entre otras, las preguntas que el autor de manera audaz y entretenida presenta a los lectores en su análisis de los relatos infantiles y sus respectivas experiencias en el uso de Internet. Conservando un lenguaje propio y manteniendo las huellas del discurso infantil cotidiano; el libro destaca la importancia de la narración oral en niños y niñas como materialización de experiencias constructivas de conocimientos -en un tema específico: Internet-, y, en la necesidad de entendimiento sobre los usos que la niñez hace de este medio tecnologico.

We think we know what healers do: they build on patients’ irrational beliefs and treat them in a ‘symbolic’ way. If they get results, it’s thanks to their capacity to listen, rather than any influence on a clinical level. At the same time, we also think we know what modern medicine is: a highly technical and rational process, but one that scarcely listens to patients at all. In this book, ethnopsychiatrist Tobie Nathan and philosopher Isabelle Stengers argue that this commonly posed opposition between traditional and modern medicine is misleading. They show instead that healers are interesting precisely because they don’t listen to patients, using techniques of ‘divination’ rat...
"This spectacular book does full justice to the Compositae (Asteraceae), the largest and most successful flowering plant family with some 1700 genera and 24,000 species. It is an indispensable reference, providing the most up-to-date hypotheses of phylogenetic relationships in the family based on molecular and morphological characters, along with the corresponding subfamilial and tribal classification. The 2009 work not only integrates the extensive molecular phylogenetic analyses conducted in the last 25 years, but also uses these to produce a metatree for about 900 taxa of Compositae. The book contains 44 chapters, contributed by 80 authors, covering the history, economic importance, chara...
This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018. The early science of chemistry and microbiology were the source of most drugs until the revolution of genetic engineering in the mid 1970s. Then biotechnology made available novel protein agents such as interferons, blood factors and monoclonal antibodies that have changed the modern pharmacy. Over the past year, a new pharmacy of oligonucleotides has emerged from the science of gene expression such as RNA splicing and RNA interference. The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...
