Aurelio Desdentado Bonete, funcionario del Cuerpo Superior de Administradores Civiles del Estado y Técnico de Administración de la Seguridad Social, falleció en 2020 víctima de las terribles circunstancias sufridas por España en ese año maldito. El vacío dejado por su muerte ha motivado que sus compañeros y amigos, provenientes del mundo de la docencia universitaria y de la abogacía hayan querido rendirle un homenaje en esta obra colectiva. Aurelio Desdentado fue Magistrado del Tribunal Supremo, Sala IV de lo Social (febrero 1986-marzo 2014) y presidió «en funciones» en varias ocasiones la Sala de lo Social del Tribunal Supremo. Fue también miembro de algunas Salas de Conflictos de Competencia de este Tribunal y de la Sala del artículo 61 de la LOPJ. A lo anterior se suma su docencia universitaria, el ejercicio de la abogacía y una ingente bibliografía. Por ello, la presente obra incorpora monografías sobre los principales temas socio-laborales que estuvieron presentes en su obra y, por supuesto, los autores le dedican un emocionado recuerdo, con la exposición de las vivencias que compartieron con él.
Desde la creación del Retiro Obrero, en 1919, la edad de jubilación se situó en los 65 años; en aquel momento, esa edad resultaba muy elevada, lo que garantizaba que el número de beneficiarios fuera muy escaso durante las primeras décadas de aplicación del seguro social obligatorio y su sostenimiento no corriese peligro. Sin embargo, el actual contexto es muy distinto. Al incrementarse la esperanza de vida, también se han elevado los costes de protección social y las necesidades de financiación pues -al margen del coste de la asistencia sanitaria- la Seguridad Social tendrá que afrontar el pago de pensiones durante más tiempo. Las estimaciones económicas sobre la viabilidad de l...

The first International Congress on Science and Skiing was held in Austria in January 1996. The main aim of the conference was to bring together original key research in this area and provid an essential update for those in the field. The lnk between theory and practice was also addressed, making the research more applicable for both researchers and coaches. This book is divided into five parts, each containing a group of papers that are related by theme or disciplineary approach. They are as follows: Biomechanics of Skiing; Fitness testing and Training in Skiing; Movement Control and Psychology in Skiing; Physiology of Skiing and Sociology of Skiing. The conclusions drawn from the conference represent an invaluable practical reference for sports scientists, coached, skiers and all those involved in this area.
Biomaterials are produced from biological material and are used for their physical characteristics. This book looks at the range of biomaterials and their applications which range from the use of polysaccharides as thickening agents to the use of proteins as fibres and adhesives.

Ion channels are membrane proteins that act as gated pathways for the movement of ions across cell membranes. They play essential roles in the physiology of all cells. In recent years, an ever-increasing number of human and animal diseases have been found to result from defects in ion channel function. Most of these diseases arise from mutations in the genes encoding ion channel proteins, and they are now referred to as the channelopathies. Ion Channels and Disease provides an informative and up-to-date account of our present understanding of ion channels and the molecular basis of ion channel diseases. It includes a basic introduction to the relevant aspects of molecular biology and biophys...
A few decades ago, management thinking started to embrace the idea of purpose. The first edition of this book marked an important step in this trajectory; it drew attention to the need for managers to relate the concepts of ‘purpose’ and ‘missions’ to strategy, culture and leadership. In the years since, purpose and missions have become business imperatives – not only in terms of remaining competitive but as core in the attempts to have a sustainable impact on the world. The second edition of Management by Missions is an open access book based on substantially more research carried out over fifteen years, involving more than 200 organizations around the world. All of this resear...
