Dinámica de suelos amazónicos procesos de degradación y alternativas para su recuperación

El presente libro recoge los avances que en el tema el proyecto BPIN “Mantenimiento de la fertilidad del suelo y generación de tecnologías para la recuperación de áreas degradadas para la Amazonia colombiana” logró acopiar en los últimos 10 años (2000-2009), esperando ser una contribución para los nuevos investigadores que vuelcan su interés en la Amazonia, así como una herramienta que oriente a las autoridades locales y regionales sobre cómo hacer de los suelos de la región un uso más sostenible, que minimice la presión sobre el bosque nativo en pie.

Micorrizas arbusculares de la Amazonia Colombiana. Catalogo Ilustrado.

El catálogo es el resultado de un trabajo de más de tres años y más de 400 muestras revisadas, en el cual se describen aquellos morfotipos que frecuentemente aparecen en suelos de la Amazonia colombiana. Incluye además de las descripciones, mapas de distribución, plantas hospederas, coberturas asociadas, y tipos de suelo comúnmente asociados a los morfotipos, a partir del uso de información recogida en campo y que hacen parte de una base de datos que el Instituto Sinchi posee. La conjunción de todas estas variables relacionadas, pueden ser una herramienta útil para identificar correctamente un morfotipo, ampliar el conocimiento de este grupo de hongos, fomentar la investigación en el tema y promover el uso de este recurso. El catálogo es entonces un documento de consulta que pretende facilitar la labor investigativa de los interesados en estudiar esta simbiosis en la Amazonia colombiana.

There is an Elephant in Your Living Room

The Journey What you are about to read is the journey that I took close to a decade ago. This book is really my diary about the investigations I made of a group of mediums and their work. Little did I know that I would also begin to experience phenomenon of a spiritual nature. I made a choice to continue to experience and study and found myself in the need to write down all the experiences that I had so I could later examine them. I found the process and the drama of the soul as they leave their present existence and enter into a new dimension, which is the spiritual world. You will read what I went through, and I learned that life does not end with death but is rather a transformation of the spirit I found that the spirit retains his identity as well as the mind. This journey has taken many turns and continues to this day. I decided to make this information available to all that would wish to read it.

Designs for the Pluriverse

In Designs for the Pluriverse Arturo Escobar presents a new vision of design theory and practice aimed at channeling design's world-making capacity toward ways of being and doing that are deeply attuned to justice and the Earth. Noting that most design—from consumer goods and digital technologies to built environments—currently serves capitalist ends, Escobar argues for the development of an “autonomous design” that eschews commercial and modernizing aims in favor of more collaborative and placed-based approaches. Such design attends to questions of environment, experience, and politics while focusing on the production of human experience based on the radical interdependence of all beings. Mapping autonomous design’s principles to the history of decolonial efforts of indigenous and Afro-descended people in Latin America, Escobar shows how refiguring current design practices could lead to the creation of more just and sustainable social orders.

Zero-Point Hubris

Zero-Point Hubris

Operating within the framework of postcolonial studies and decolonial theory, this important work starts from the assumption that the violence exercised by European colonialism was not only physical and economic, but also ‘epistemic’. Santiago Castro-Gómez argues that toward the end of the eighteenth century, this epistemic violence of the Spanish Empire assumed a specific form: zero-point hubris. The ‘many forms of knowing’ were integrated into a chronological hierarchy in which scientific-enlightened knowledge appears at the highest point on the cognitive scale, while all other epistemes are seen as constituting its past. Enlightened criollo thinkers did not hesitate to situate the Black, Indigenous, and mestizo peoples of New Granada in the lowest position on this cognitive scale. Castro-Gómez argues that in the colonial periphery of the Spanish Americas, Enlightenment constituted not only the position of epistemic distance separating science from all other knowledges, but also the position of ethnic distance separating the criollos from the ‘castes’. Epistemic violence—and not only physical violence—is thereby found at the very origin of Colombian nationality.

The Metabolic Miracle

We all like to eat, but we are doing it wrong, and it gets worse every day. Deceived by the food industry, advertising, culinary fake news, and Aunt Bertha's nutrition advice, with every bite we are making nefarious decisions that steal our energy and make us both ill and fat. How can we stop this cycle? Who should we believe? How can we change our habits without becoming rigid and boring? In this book, renowned doctor Carlos Jaramillo offers robust answers to these questions and states that the key to optimal weight and health is our metabolism. Understanding what it is, how it operates, and what we can do to make it work in our favor is fundamental. And it is what the reader will accomplish on these pages.
