El presente volumen recoge una panorámica completa de la problemática que se plantea entre los derechos de los creadores y los titulares de los soportes a que dichas obras se incorporan. Dicotomía que resulta de la diferenciación entre el corpus mysticum y el corpus mechanicum en la que toda creación se exterioriza. La obra se inicia con la contribución de la profesora Caridad del Carmen Valdés Díaz, de la Universidad de La Habana, en torno a cómo las obras del espíritu se manifiestan a través de su continente y cómo se pueden diversificar las propiedades existentes en los mismos. Seguidamente, el Profesor de Derecho Civil de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid Luis Antonio Angu...
Esta obra incluye los trabajos presentados en la VI edición de las Jornadas sobre temas actuales de la Propiedad Intelectual que se celebran en Cuba, cada dos años, producto de la fructífera colaboración existente entre la Facultad de Derecho de La Universidad de La Habana y AISGE, entidad de gestión de los derechos de los actores y otros colectivos de creadores en España, dedicada en esta ocasión al análisis de las conexiones existentes entre el Derecho de autor y la Propiedad Industrial. El volumen se inicia con la contribución de la Doctora Marta Fernández Martínez, Vicedecana de la Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad de La Habana, que ilustra acerca del proyecto de investiga...
La presente obra, compleja, se estructura del modo siguiente: En primer lugar, el profesor cubano Leonardo Pérez Gallardo, plantea una aproximación a lo que haya de entenderse por cultura popular, haciendo referencia al individuo, a la sociedad y al Estado como partícipes y destinatarios de la misma. Acto seguido, la profesora burgalesa Raquel de Román se ocupa de estudiar las manifestaciones de la cultura popular relevantes como auténticas obras del espíritu, prestando atención particular, en esta sede, a la tapicería, al folclore y a los cuentos y tradiciones populares. Sabido ya lo anterior, Carlos Rogel, de la Complutense de Madrid, se ocupa de reflexionar sobre la autoría de la...
Tuberculosis (TB) remains the largest cause of adult deaths from any single infectious disease, and ranks among the top 10 causes of death worldwide. When TB and war occur simultaneously, the inevitable consequences are disease, human misery, suffering, and heightened mortality. TB is, therefore, one of the most frequent and deadly diseases to complicate the special circumstances of warfare. Written by internationally acclaimed experts, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the status of TB before, during and after WWII in the 25 belligerent countries that were chiefly involved. It summarizes the history of TB up to the present day. A special chapter on “Nazi Medicine, Tuberculosi...

Electromagnetic Scattering is a collection of studies that aims to discuss methods, state of the art, applications, and future research in electromagnetic scattering. The book covers topics related to the subject, which includes low-frequency electromagnetic scattering; the uniform asymptomatic theory of electromagnetic edge diffraction; analyses of problems involving high frequency diffraction and imperfect half planes; and multiple scattering of waves by periodic and random distribution. Also covered in this book are topics such as theories of scattering from wire grid and mesh structures; the electromagnetic inverse problem; computational methods for transmission of waves; and developments in the use of complex singularities in the electromagnetic theory. Engineers and physicists who are interested in the study, developments, and applications of electromagnetic scattering will find the text informative and helpful.
This open access book explores the concept of Industry 4.0, which presents a considerable challenge for the production and service sectors. While digitization initiatives are usually integrated into the central corporate strategy of larger companies, smaller firms often have problems putting Industry 4.0 paradigms into practice. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) possess neither the human nor financial resources to systematically investigate the potential and risks of introducing Industry 4.0. Addressing this obstacle, the international team of authors focuses on the development of smart manufacturing concepts, logistics solutions and managerial models specifically for SMEs. Aiming to provide methodological frameworks and pilot solutions for SMEs during their digital transformation, this innovative and timely book will be of great use to scholars researching technology management, digitization and small business, as well as practitioners within manufacturing companies.
In this rich, eye-opening, and uplifting digital anthology, dozens of esteemed writers, poets, and artists from more than thirty countries send literary dispatches from life during the pandemic. Net proceeds benefit booksellers in need. As our world is transformed by the coronavirus pandemic, writers offer a powerful antidote to the fearful confines of isolation: a window onto lives and corners of the world beyond our own. In Mauritius, a journalist contends with denialism and mourns the last days of summer, lost to the lockdown. In Paris, a writer struggles to protect his young son from fear. In Chile, protesters who prevailed against tear gas and rubber bullets are now halted by a virus. I...
The first text to take a truly inter-disciplinary approach to critically examining the impacts of tourism on marine environments and coastal regions, focusing on the negative environmental impacts but also looking at the social and economic context of marine tourism and coastal zone management. The book sets tourism against the background of the crisis facing our oceans due to climate change and the effects of global warming. Tourism adds another layer of challenges for our marine environment, and its rapid growth globally means that these challenges have grown dramatically in recent years. We have seen a number of trends in the relationship between tourism and our oceans which pose a threat...
The conditions and characteristics of correctional facilities - overcrowded with rapid population turnover, often in old and poorly ventilated structures, a spatially concentrated pattern of releases and admissions in low-income communities of color, and a health care system that is siloed from community public health - accelerates transmission of the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) responsible for COVID-19. Such conditions increase the risk of coming into contact with the virus for incarcerated people, correctional staff, and their families and communities. Relative to the general public, moreover, incarcerated individuals have a higher prevalence of chronic health conditions such as asthma,...
