Método Pilates na prevenção e tratamento da Osteoporose
A osteoporose é o principal motivo de fraturas na população acima de 50 anos. É uma mazela silenciosa que afeta principalmente mulheres na pós-menopausa. Dentre as formas de prevenção e tratamento da osteoporose encontra-se o tratamento medicamentoso, assim como, a prática sistemática de exercícios físicos. No entanto, o uso de medicamentos pode ocasionar efeitos colaterais, enquanto a prática de exercícios físicos possui poucos eventos adversos. Uma possibilidade de exercício de resistência muscular progressiva que tem demonstrado efeitos sobre diferentes desfechos músculo-esqueléticos é o método Pilates. Vislumbrando essa realidade, surge a presente publicação: Método Pilates na prevenção e tratamento da osteoporose. Este livro compila informações cientificamente sustentadas e necessárias para serem utilizadas como guia prático por profissionais do exercício físico que trabalham com o método Pilates, visando à orientação quanto à elaboração de protocolos de intervenção quando o objetivo estiver atrelado à prevenção ou tratamento da osteoporose.
Robot Ghosts and Wired Dreams
Since the end of the Second World War--and particularly over the last decade--Japanese science fiction has strongly influenced global popular culture. Unlike American and British science fiction, its most popular examples have been visual--from Gojira (Godzilla) and Astro Boy in the 1950s and 1960s to the anime masterpieces Akira and Ghost in the Shell of the 1980s and 1990s--while little attention has been paid to a vibrant tradition of prose science fiction in Japan.

Japanese Transnational Cinema
The aim of this Special Issue lies in expanding contemporary discussions on Japanese Cinema and its transnational aspects by applying new critical methodologies and stances and in revealing the contradictions inherent in the way the old paradigm of 'National Cinema' has traditionally been articulated. In order to do so, this publication highlights the limitations of assessing Japanese film as a cinematic phenomenon confined to its national borders. Throughout this issue, the concept of transnationality is not confined to a single definition and is instead used as an analytical framework which allow authors to surpass narrow perspectives that neglect the complex nature of Japanese film in ter...

Noir Urbanisms
