Field of Battle
The emergence of a geopolitical war scenario, establishing a form of global governance that utilizes methods of surveillance and control. In times of war the law is silent. —from Field of Battle Field of Battle presents the world today as nothing less than a war in progress, with Mexico an illustrative microcosm of the developing geopolitical scenario: a battlefield in which violence, drug trafficking, and organized crime—as well as the alegal state that works alongside all of this in the guise of fighting against it—hold sway. The rule of law has been replaced by the dominance of alegality and the rise of the “a-state.” This war scenario is establishing a form of global governance...
Vidas Revolucionarias
Es un libro compuesto por seis historias de la izquierda chilena, que responden a las interrogantes que por décadas la prensa ha hecho sobre si la izquierda nacional tuvo alguna capacidad militar y, si contó con ella, qué tan importante fue como para que una estrategia de lucha armada hubiera sido viable. El libro da cuenta de militantes de diversas organizaciones de la izquierda nacional, que dieron hasta sus propias vidas para conseguir lo que denominaban “liberación nacional”. Su lectura nos permite adentrarnos en hechos poco conocidos de la historia, y en la desmitificación de acontecimientos que hasta hoy se han dado por ciertos. Vidas Revolucionarias es el fruto de años de investigación historiográfica, contado de manera sencilla pero no por ello menos documentada ni certera.
Advances in Artificial Intelligence and Soft Computing
The two volume set LNAI 9413 + LNAI 9414 constitutes the proceedings of the 14th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2015, held in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico, in October 2015. The total of 98 papers presented in these proceedings was carefully reviewed and selected from 297 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: natural language processing; logic and multi-agent systems; bioinspired algorithms; neural networks; evolutionary algorithms; fuzzy logic; machine learning and data mining; natural language processing applications; educational applications; biomedical applications; image processing and computer vision; search and optimization; forecasting; and intelligent applications.
Vitiligo
Practical guidance based on expert experience and evidence for developing management strategies for vitiligo This complete guide to vitiligo provides a full appraisal of strategy for the treatment of this autoimmune disease that affects 1-2% of the world’s population. It addresses all aspects of vitiligo, covering the science, medical and surgical therapies, and the psychological evaluations and approaches based on the proper understanding of the causes and classification of a particular case. Management of vitiligo is challenging and requires a multipronged approach. Vitiligo: Medical and Surgical Management is a comprehensive, timely, state-of-the-art resource that will help those involv...

They are organized in topical sections named: Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning; Computer Vision; Image and Signal Processing; Medical Image; and Applications.
Transactions on Computational Collective Intelligence XXVI
These transactions publish research in computer-based methods of computational collective intelligence (CCI) and their applications in a wide range of fields such as the semantic Web, social networks, and multi-agent systems. TCCI strives to cover new methodological, theoretical and practical aspects of CCI understood as the form of intelligence that emerges from the collaboration and competition of many individuals (artificial and/or natural). The application of multiple computational intelligence technologies, such as fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, neural systems, consensus theory, etc., aims to support human and other collective intelligence and to create new forms of CCI in natural and/or artificial systems. This twenty-sixth issue is a special issue with selected papers from the First International KEYSTONE Conference 2015 (IKC 2015), part of the keystone COST Action IC1302.
Urethroplasty in a post irradiation urethral stricture - a review
Radiotherapy-induced urethral strictures (RIUS) decrease quality of life and present a great challenge for surgical reconstruction, especially due to proximal location, compromised vascular supply, and poor wound healing. It is unclear whether urethroplasty is an option in cases with stricture resulting from exposure to pelvic radiation. We review the pathophysiology, diagnostic workup, and disease-specific aspects of RIUS. Furthermore, we discuss several management alternatives such as excision and primary anastomosis, as well as techniques for open reconstruction with flaps. The most extensive techniques in the treatment of strictures include, for example, those using gracilis muscle flaps, as they can involve periurethral tissue to provide sufficient vascularity for excellent post-surgery urethral healing. In brief, RIUS represent a significant challenge. In carefully chosen patients, urethroplasty should be considered as a feasible and durable treatment. However, medical practitioners should always take into consideration that the results of urethroplasty in RIUS are not comparable to urethroplasties without a radiation background.
