A Luta Neste Remelão
Este livro é resultado de uma pesquisa etnográfica. Constitui-se em um exercício de interpretação antropológica sobre os saberes e estratégias de um grupo familiar de ribeirinhos pantaneiros que vivem na Ilha do Piraim, Pantanal Mato-Grossense, desde 1954. Sua economia de subsistência teve que se adaptar a um novo contexto socioeconômico que surge no Pantanal a partir de 1960. Para obter alguns benefícios de políticas públicas e ainda em razão das imposições da legislação ambiental que chegaram ao Pantanal, esses ribeirinhos alteraram a sua forma de produção econômica. Busquei compreender e apresento aqui quais foram as estratégias adotadas por eles para permanecer em seu território, as suas conexões profundas com as raízes indígenas e sua cosmovisão relacionada ao ritmo das águas e ao ciclo lunar.

Langford's Basic Photography
Langford's Basic Photography is a seminal photography text. First published in 1965, it has informed the work and career of many of the world's leading photographers.

It covers every aspect of photography, from capture through to output, both digital and analogue. There is an emphasis on explaining the 'how to' of photography, but Langford's Basic also includes in-depth coverage of the fundamental principles that govern the art, such as how light behaves, optics, and the shutter. This ensures that the reader comes away with not only a good grasp of ...
World Drug Report 2005
The World Drug Report 2005 provides one of the most comprehensive overviews of illicit drug trends at the international level. In addition, this year it presents the work of UNODC in two new areas of research: an estimate of the financial value of the world drug market, and the preliminary steps towards the creation of an illicit drug index. The analysis of trends, some going back 10 years or more, is presented in Volume 1. Detailed statistics are presented in Volume 2. Taken together these volumes provide the most up to date view of today's illicit drug situation.
