A criminologia, como campo interdisciplinar das ciências jurídicas, desempenha um papel fundamental na compreensão e na abordagem das questões atuais relacionadas ao crime e à justiça criminal. Nesta obra, exploramos alguns temas atuais da criminologia com um olhar crítico e clínico, destacando a importância dessas análises no contexto atual das ciências jurídicas. Desempenhando um papel crucial na compreensão das motivações por trás desses crimes, bem como no desenvolvimento de estratégias para preveni-los e investigá-los. Além disso, a criminologia clínica pode ser aplicada na avaliação de criminosos, ajudando a determinar se eles representam uma ameaça à sociedade ...

Leitura fundamental para entender como funciona e o que pretende uma das mais poderosas instituições religiosas do país, com suas extensões tentaculares na política, na mídia, na sociedade e no mundo empresarial. Com mais de 10 mil templos, distribuídos em todos os estados e em quase cem países, a Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus é um gigante neopentecostal. Da réplica do Templo de Salomão, Edir Macedo dirige sua igreja com autoridade inconteste, cortejado por líderes de todas as cores ideológicas. Nesse sentido, a recente unção de Jair Bolsonaro como paladino da fé cristã — celebrada pessoalmente por Macedo — demonstra um projeto de poder iniciado há mais de quarenta ...
The tropics are home to most of the world’s biodiversity and are currently the frontier for human settlement. Tropical ecosystems are being converted to agricultural and other land uses at unprecedented rates. Land conversion and maintenance almost always rely on fire and, because of this, fire is now more prevalent in the tropics than anywhere else on Earth. Despite pervasive fire, human settlement and threatened biodiversity, there is little comprehensive information available on fire and its effects in tropical ecosystems. Tropical deforestation, especially in rainforests, has been widely documented for many years. Forests are cut down and allowed to dry before being burned to remove bi...
Physical Therapy – Treatment of Common Orthopedic Conditions is a highly illustrated, evidence-based guide to the treatment of a range of common orthopaedic disorders, edited by US based experts in the field. Divided into sixteen chapters, across three sections, the book begins with a section on upper extremity, including conditions such as thoracic outlet syndrome, rotator cuff impingement, and carpal tunnel syndrome. The second section covers the spine, including sprains and strains, and cervical radiculopathy. The final section focuses on lower extremity, covering conditions such as hamstring strain, tendinopathy, and medial tibial stress syndrome. Each chapter begins with an overview o...
Grasslands are an important element of European nature. About half of Europe's endemic species depend on grasslands, whether in mountains, lowlands, river plains or coastal areas. Many grasslands originate in traditional agricultural landscapes. Modern intensification, however, brings many of these ecosystems under threat. 'Grasslands in Europe' is a tribute to these important ecosystems. It was written by an international team of grassland experts, who describe twenty-four case studies from countries in all of Europe - ranging from the grasslands of Gotland and #land (Sweden) to the Spanish Dehesa, and from the hay meadows of the British Pennine Dales to the steppes of Turkish Anatolia. Tog...
"Society for Ecological Restoration"--Cover.
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.
Laws, decrees, and administrative acts of government.
The abundance of insects can change dramatically from generation to generation; these generational changes may occur within a growing season or over a period of years. Such extraordinary density changes or "outbreaks" may be abrupt and ostensibly random, or population peaks may occur in a more or less cyclic fashion. They can be hugely destructive when the insect is a crop pest or carries diseases of humans, farm animals, or wildlife. Knowledge of these types of population dynamics and computer models that may help predict when they occur are very important. This important new book revisits a subject not thoroughly discussed in such a publication since 1988 and brings an international scale to the issue of insect outbreaks. Insect Outbreaks Revisited is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate students in ecology, population biology and entomology, as well as government and industry scientists doing research on pests, land managers, pest management personnel, extension personnel, conservation biologists and ecologists, and state, county and district foresters.
