En Colombia desde diversos ámbitos y atendiendo a las dinámicas y circunstancias socio-políticas, culturales, económicas y axiológicas actuales, se observa que, desde hace unos tres lustros, la demanda por los servicios y las acciones de "atención", "intervención", "acompañamiento psicosocial" están a la orden del día. El surgimiento y consolidación de éstos, así como de ofertas para la cualificación profesional desde los variados programas de pregrado, posgrados (maestrías y doctorados), redes académico-investigativas y otras formas de intercambios humanos en pro que la persona individual y colectivamente dignifique, funcionalice e interactúe lo más saludablemente posible y con el mejor y mayor sentido vital, son los objetivos teleológicos de múltiples alternativas gubernamentales -y no gubernamentales-, mediadas por los cimientos de las políticas públicas ( o de la construcción de éstas) para las multifacéticas y caleidoscópicas posibilidades de la interactividad existencial.
Candida, which was discovered more than a century ago as a causative organism of oral thrush, is now thought to potentially infect almost every tissue of the human body.

The role of anti-candida drugs and their mechanism of action are also discussed.

With their irresistible brand of pop, ABBA was the band that made dancing queens groove, the group that never met its Waterloo, the winner that took it all. They outsold and outperformed all their rivals throughout the 1970s, inspired a hit show that's run for decades, and served as the soundtrack for beloved movies. This magnificent tribute, written by the director of the ABBA Museum in Stockholm, takes an intimate, humorous look at the iconic quartet. In addition to brand-new interviews with all four members and backstage staff who have rarely if ever spoken about their work, it features never-before-seen images and removable facsimile memorabilia--including diaries, lyrics, a handwritten set list, and more. Every fan will treasure this unique volume
Marguerite Duras is France's best-known and most controversial contemporary woman writer. Duras' influence extends from her early novels of the 1950's to her radically innovative experimental autobiographical text of the 1980's The Lover Leslie Hill's book throws new light on Duras' relationship to feminism, psychoanalysis, sexuality, literature, film, politics, and the media. Feted by Kristeva, and Laca who claimed her as almost his other self, Duras is revealed to be a profoundly transgressive thinker and artist. It will be a must for all concerned with contemporary writing, writing by women, recent European cinema, film and literature.
Set in Soweto outside Johannesburg, Between Two Worlds is one of the most important novels of South Africa under apartheid. Originally published under the title Muriel at Metropolitan, the novel was for some years banned (on the grounds of language derogatory to Afrikaners) even as it received worldwide acclaim. It was later issued in the Longman African Writers Series, but has for some years been out of print and unavailable. This Broadview edition includes a new introduction by the author describing the circumstances in which she wrote Between Two Worlds.
