This history of mankind's battles against infectious diseases looks at how epidemics shaped empires and economies and how medical revolutions freed us from these cycles until new threats arose caused by changes in global trade and climate.
Nudibranchs of Britain, Ireland and Northwest Europe
A strikingly illustrated photographic identification guide to sea slugs in all their colourful variety Nudibranchs, or sea slugs, are a group of marine gastropod molluscs whose adults lack shells, an evolutionary loss that has led to a wide variety of body shapes, colours and colour patterns, making them popular with divers and underwater photographers.

Covers more than 195 species, each on its own two-page spread Includes in situ photos to aid finding nudibranchs under water and on the shore Features photos of nudibranchs’ distinctive spawn coils and studio photos showing detailed anatomy Presents key distinguishing features and essential information on size, habitat, diet and distribution

Unfinished
Spain was one of the countries where the practice of architecture has been most affected by the economic crisis. There are few places on earth where such large numbers of buildings were built in such a short period of time. The lack of reflection over whether these projects were necessary or valid resulted in the subsequent abandonment of many buildings when their completion or maintenance was discovered not to be economically viable. Their appearance throughout Spanish territories has generated a collection of unfinished buildings where the factor of time was eliminated from the formula for making architecture. The publication gathers examples of architecture produced during the past few years, born out of renunciation and economy of means, designed to evolve and adapt to future necessities and trusting in the beauty conferred by the passage of time.

La baronia de Queralt al segle XV
El present treball intenta ser una aproximació a l'estudi d'un espai feudal —la baronia de Queralt— en un període específic de la seva trajectòria històrica —la primera meitat del segle xv—. La nostra intenció és, en principi, esbrinar el funcionament d'una sèrie d'aspectes organitzatius d'aquest marc espacial: els que fan referència a algunes relacions socials i econòmiques desenvolupades a la vila de Santa Coloma de Queralt, epicentre del domini, i per extensió, a tota la baronia.
A Idade da Odisseia
Na antiguidade, um incêndio teria causado o maior retrocesso já visto na história da humanidade. A queda da Biblioteca de Alexandria possivelmente levou consigo toda a evolução adquirida desde o Antigo Egito. Mas... E se de alguma forma todo esse conhecimento tivesse sido preservado e encaminhado ao outro lado do planeta? E, com isso, o Novo Mundo pudesse conquistar o Velho Mundo? São com esses questionamentos que se inicia a primeira parte de "A Idade da Odisseia". Nela conta-se a história de um jovem Nativo órfão chamado Mikasi, o qual foi adotado por uma Criatura Lendária dotada de logos (racionalidade) conhecida como Amarok. Ambos vivem em um mundo onde a outrora América dominou a antiga Europa em 1492, graças aos poderes e habilidades dos Nativos, com a utilização da Frequência, uma energia presente em todos os seres vivos e registrada primeiramente pelos antigos egípcios. Em meio a aventuras, desafios e choque de realidades, Mikasi e Amarok terão um mistério a resolver ao longo de uma grande odisseia: a resolução do enigmático Cubo Taquiônico, o maior legado da Biblioteca de Alexandria.
