A comprehensive state-of-the-art collection of the most frequently used techniques for plant cell and tissue culture. Readily reproducible and extensively annotated, the methods range from general methodologies, such as culture induction, growth and viability evaluation, and contamination control, to such highly specialized techniques as chloroplast transformation involving the laborious process of protoplast isolation and culture. Most of the protocols are currently used in the research programs of the authors or represent important parts of business projects aimed at the generation of improved plant materials. Two new appendices explain the principles for formulating culture media and the composition of the eight most commonly used media formulations, and list more than 100 very useful internet sites.
El libro es el resultado de varios años de investigación del autor sobre los problemas, aún no resueltos, de la práctica laboral de los profesionales universitarios en formación, en las empresas donde deben insertarse con tal objetivo. Del análisis de los resultados investigativos que, sobre la calidad de sus graduados universitarios, realiza regularmente el Ministerio de Educación Superior, se encontraron insuficiencias en su formación, relacionadas con los componentes curriculares investigativo y laboral a los cuales se le dedica como promedio, en todas las carreras, el 29% del tiempo de los currículos y cuya etapa más rica y creativa transcurre en las empresas en las que se insertan, a las que se denomina unidades docentes. El texto contiene una síntesis teórica de las principales concepciones que, en diferentes contextos, trata sobre la capacitación laboral de los profesionales universitarios en formación.

From the first North American scholar permitted to study in residence at Hemingway's beloved Cuban home comes a radically new understanding of “Papa’s” life in Cuba Ernest Hemingway first landed in Cuba in 1928. In some ways he never left. After a decade of visiting regularly, he settled near Cojímar—a tiny fishing village east of Havana—and came to think of himself as Cuban. His daily life among the common people there taught him surprising lessons, and inspired the novel that would rescue his declining career. That book, The Old Man and the Sea, won him a Pulitzer and, one year later, a Nobel Prize. In a rare gesture of humility, Hemingway announced to the press that he accepted...

Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
