This volume presents a project of empirical research on issues of theology, sexuality, and reproductive health and rights. It was carried out by researchers from two theological institutions in Brazil and Colombia in close contact with the grassroots in various civil-society organizations. Numerous studies at twenty-six Latin American institutions on the relation between theology and HIV/AIDS prepared the way for this project. It promotes and applies methodologies for Latin American popular education and participatory action research (PAR). While the project was finalized long before the COVID-19 pandemic hit Latin America and the world, the pandemic gave fresh evidence of the relevance of the project. The present volume is the English translation of the initial Portuguese and Spanish reports about the project, enriched with a new preface. The editors are delighted that this translation will help spread the vital insights from this research to a wider and global readership.
¿En qué sentido la revelación de Dios, como autocomunicación de su íntima voluntad sobre el hombre puede suceder históricamente en este mundo? ¿Cómo puede darse tal autocomunicación de Dios en el hombre de tal manera que este pueda conocerla con certeza? El autor aborda el concepto mismo de revelación basado principalmente en Karl Rahner, y responde en forma concreta a las preguntas formuladas. Para esto aborda las tradiciones del Pentateuco en el Antiguo Testamento, y en el Nuevo las tradiciones pascual y de la pasión. Para finalizar, plantea la hermenéutica filosófica de la revelación bíblica de Bultmann y, además, configura una hermenéutica de la revelación esencial según Rahner.
Este libro no es propiamente una historia de estas dos disciplinas. Toda ciencia es un proceso en movimiento en el cual un descubrimiento origina descubrimientos sucesivos, pues la inteligencia humana siempre está planteándose nuevas preguntas que generan nuevas respuestas. La presentación de ciertos momentos especialmente importantes del proceso de conocer y decidir, en la teología y en las ciencias sociales, nos ilustra con ejemplos concretos la noción de ?contexto en curso?, que puede ser útil en cualquier disciplina pero especialmente en las ciencias humanas en que están implicadas la historia y la libertad propias de la persona humana.
Between Copernicus and Galileo is the story of Christoph Clavius, the Jesuit astronomer and teacher whose work helped set the standards by which Galileo's famous claims appeared so radical, and whose teachings guided the intellectual and scientific agenda of the Church in the central years of the Scientific Revolution. Though relatively unknown today, Clavius was enormously influential throughout Europe in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries through his astronomy books—the standard texts used in many colleges and universities, and the tools with which Descartes, Gassendi, and Mersenne, among many others, learned their astronomy. James Lattis uses Clavius's own publications a...

Drug-Acceptor Interactions: Modeling theoretical tools to test and evaluate experimental equilibrium effects suggests novel theoretical tools to test and evaluate drug interactions seen with combinatorial drug therapy. The book provides an in-depth, yet controversial, exploration of existing tools for analysis of dose-response studies at equilibrium or steady state. The book is recommended reading for post-graduate students and researchers engaged in the study of systems biology, networks, and the pharmacodynamics of natural or industrial drugs, as well as for medical clinicians interested in drug application and combinatorial drug therapy. Even people without mathematical skills will be able to follow the pros and cons of reaction schemes and their related distribution equations. Chapter 9 is a hands-on guide for software to plot, fit and analyze one’s own data.
