"A proteção ao meio ambiente encontra as suas raízes pelo menos na Antiguidade Clássica ocidental. Em 80 d.C. o Senado de Roma aprovou uma lei para proteger o suprimento de água limpa para beber e banhar da cidade; no século XIV, a Inglaterra proibiu a queima de carvão em Londres, bem como a eliminação de resíduos nos cursos d'água navegáveis; em 1681, foi determinado, na colônia da Pensilvânia, que para cada cinco acres de terra desmatados para assentamento, um fosse preservado; no século seguinte, Franklin liderou campanhas para a redução do despejo de resíduos no meio ambiente; e, no século XIX, o governo britânico aprovou regulamentos para reduzir os efeitos prejudici...

The “Abtropfung” theory that nevi develop through the migration of nevus cells from the epidermis to the dermis prevailed for almost a century until the “Hochsteigerung” theory postulated the reverse pattern of migration. Most recently, however, new insights gained from epidemiology, cross-sectional and longitudinal studies of nevi, dermoscopy and confocal microscopy, and cellular and molecular studies have brought into question both of these theories. This book provides a comprehensive guide to current knowledge about nevogenesis by presenting these latest advances and in addition discusses issues yet to be resolved. It will assist practicing physicians in effectively managing patients with a variety of nevi and will also be of great value to researchers in the field. Importantly, since nevi are associated with an increased risk of melanoma, understanding nevogenesis may help to unravel some of the mysteries of melanomagenesis.

A tradutora Lúcia Peixoto Cherem não resistiu e decidiu aconselhar sua amiga, a pesquisadora canadense Claire Varin. Precisava alertá-la sobre o tipo de reação que sua leitura de Clarice Lispector poderia provocar no Brasil, "uma leitura muito pessoal, pouco acadêmica e identificada demais com a autora. E a referência ao ocultismo, então, talvez seja malvista pela crítica". Diante do alerta, Varin foi sincera ao afirmar: "O que eu posso fazer? Está lá na Clarice. Não fui eu que inventei." São justamente esses riscos que fazem de Línguas de fogo uma das abordagens mais originais do universo de Lispector, desde que o estudo foi lançado em meados dos anos 1980. Varin teve contato...
