Diálogos entre Direito Civil e Direito Processual Civil
A complexidade do mundo contemporâneo vem contribuindo de modo efetivo para a eliminação das barreiras fictícias que delimitam os contornos das disciplinas do Direito, permitindo que alguns temas afins possam ser analisados sob diferentes enfoques e pontos de vista. Tal fenômeno é perceptível nos constantes diálogos e interações que existem entre o Direito Civil e o Direito Processual Civil brasileiros, principalmente após a promulgação do atual Código de Processo Civil, no ano 2015. Os paralelos são muito claros, pois o Código de Processo Civil atual incorporou o processo da constitucionalização, já operado no âmbito do Direito Civil, por meio da previsão expressa de di...
Escritos sobre trabalho escravo contemporâneo
"Existem alguns temas que parecem não sair do noticiário nacional: corrupção, violência urbana, desemprego, crise. O trabalho escravo também pode ser incluído entre eles. Na verdade, este tema não é nada novo no país em que o regime escravocrata vigorou por séculos. A estrutura social construída em torno da escravidão reflete na sociedade contemporânea e a manifestação mais evidente das sequelas deixadas são os milhares de trabalhadores resgatados nos últimos anos de situações análogas à de escravo. Embora o assunto não seja novo, continua a atrair atenção por razões variadas. É difícil conceber que, em pleno século XXI, ainda haja modalidades de escravidão. Por...
The State of the World's Forests 2020 (Chinese Edition)
Assesses progress to date in meeting global targets and goals related to forest biodiversity and examines the effectiveness of policies, actions and approaches, in terms of both conservation and sustainable development outcomes.
Pollinators and Pollination
A unique and personal insight into the ecology and evolution of pollinators, their relationships with flowers, and their conservation in a rapidly changing world. The pollination of flowers by insects, birds and other animals is a fundamentally important ecological function that supports both the natural world and human society. Without pollinators to facilitate the sexual reproduction of plants, the world would be a biologically poorer place in which to live, there would be an impact on food security, and human health would suffer. Written by one of the world’s leading pollination ecologists, this book provides an introduction to what pollinators are, how their interactions with flowers h...
The Cerrados of Brazil
The massive grasslands of Brazil -- known as the cerrados -- which cover roughly a quarter of its land surface and are among the most threatened regions in South America, have received little media attention. This book brings together leading researchers on the area to produce the first detailed account in English of the natural history and ecology of the cerrado/savanna ecosystem. Given their extent and threatened status, the richness of their flora and fauna, and the lack of familiarity with their unique ecology at the international level, the cerrados are badly in need of this important and timely work.
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

Restoration Ecology
Enlarged, enhanced and internationalized edition of the first restoration ecology textbook to be published, with foreword by Dr. Steven Whisnant of Texas A&M University and Chair of the Society of Ecological Restoration. Since 2006, when the first edition of this book appeared, major advances have taken place in restoration science and in the practice of ecological restoration. Both are now accepted as key components of the increasingly urgent search for sustainability at global, national, and community levels – hence the phrase 'New Frontier' in the title. While the first edition focused on ecosystems and landscapes in Europe, this new edition covers biomes and contexts all over the world...
The Atlantic Forest of South America
This is a detailed assessment of the state of biodiversity in the Atlantic Forest. Separate sections examine each of the three countries that are home to the forest, beginning with a brief overview that explores the dynamics of biodiversity loss in that country and outlining the topics to be addressed.
Privacy in a Cyber Age
This book lays out the foundation of a privacy doctrine suitable to the cyber age. It limits the volume, sensitivity, and secondary analysis that can be carried out. In studying these matters, the book examines the privacy issues raised by the NSA, publication of state secrets, and DNA usage.
