The Place of Affectivity and Sexuality in the Shaping of Personal Identity
The work The Place of Affectivity and Sexuality in the Shaping of Personal Identity presents as its fundamental core a set of scientific texts – both inter- and trans-disciplinary – reflecting on the definition of personal identity, its configuration as a human task, in which the concrete realities of affectivity and sexuality manifest themselves as unavoidable parts. Aiming to transcend ideologies, that always ignore reality, and fashions of irreflective thinking, this work assumes itself as a contribution for the debate about that which is the foundation of that very special identity, properly human: a totally irreducible personal identity.

Misericordia
Misericordia es uno de los libros más audaces de la literatura portuguesa de los últimos tiempos. Brutal y esperanzador, irónico y amable, conmueve, enfurece y saca algunas carcajadas. La literatura puede mover muchas emociones, y aquí se hace patente. Dentro del Hotel Paraíso, Lídia Jorge dibuja un testimonio de la condición humana, de la vejez, de los momentos fugaces de la vejez, de sus callejones sin salida. Como externó el jurado que premió a esta obra con el Gran Premio de Romance y Novela 2023 de la Asociación Portuguesa de Escritores, Misericordia "es un himno a la lectura, a la literatura y al poder transformador de ambas en la vida de lo humano, pero también al poder de la literatura para levantar del suelo a los desamparados del tiempo y del imaginario social común". Y en Francia, esta obra también fue galardonada, seleccionada para el Premio Fémina, y merecedora del Premio de lectores Au bord du jour, y el premio Transfuge a la mejor novela lusófona. Esta es la historia que la madre le pidió a Lídia escribir.
Concepts and Applications of Stem Cell Biology
This textbook will support graduate students with learning materials rich in the basic concepts of stem cell biology, in its most widespread and updated perspective. The chapters are conceived in a way for students to understand the meaning of pluripotency, the definition of embryonic stem cells and the formation of multicellular structures such as organoids together with the underlying principles of their epigenetic. This textbook also discusses adult stem cells and the potential use of these cells, in particular neural, mesenchymal, and several types of muscular cells, in biomedical research and clinical applications. This textbook represents a vital complement to the text on Essential Current Concepts of Stem Cell Biology, also published in the Learning Materials in Biosciences textbook series.
ORIGENS uma história genealógica
Como é dito na introdução, considere-se este livro uma aventura genealógica. Na sua elaboração foi-se tão longe quanto as fontes disponíveis o permitiram. Considere-se igualmente que o autor não é um académico, um historiador, um investigador, mas tão somente um observador atento que sem recorrer ao apoio de profissionais se atreveu a reunir dados, ordenar e dar-lhe forma. Se o conseguiu com êxito, os eventuais leitores o dirão. Aqui faz-se a reconstituição de sucessivas gerações de antepassados, percorrendo, nalguns casos, cerca de quinhentos anos. Fica a perceber-se a multiplicidade de origem geográfica das gentes de Santiago do Escoural, a génese das famílias formadas, em muitos casos por casamento entre parentes mais ou menos próximos. Não é à toa que existe a popular expressão na aldeia todos são primos e primas.
The Making of the Common in Social Relations
This book originates from a basic, yet innovative question: in which forms of qualification and justification do social actors support themselves to engage in common actions? This inquiry brings to the field of sociological and anthropological analysis the need to take into account socially accepted forms of qualifications of common action and the ways by which they are brought to social situations, and, simultaneously, the need to understand the processes of elaboration of justifications which may demonstrate to social actors that acting in common is worthwhile. As such, this volume analyses the processes by which social actors qualify and communalize certain aspects of their life and also ...
Endless Holocausts
An argument against the myth of "American exceptionalism" Endless Holocausts: Mass Death in the History of the United States Empire helps us to come to terms with what we have long suspected: the rise of the U.S. Empire has relied upon an almost unimaginable loss of life, from its inception during the European colonial period, to the present. And yet, in the face of a series of endless holocausts at home and abroad, the doctrine of American exceptionalism has plagued the globe for over a century. However much the ruling class insists on U.S. superiority, we find ourselves in the midst of a sea change. Perpetual wars, deteriorating economic conditions, the resurgence of white supremacy, and t...
