A Just Determination
In the first book of his JAG in Space series, New York Times bestselling author Jack Campbell combines lived experience with spaceborne adventure in a U.S. Navy courtroom drama about honor, duty, and the sins that follow humanity even to the stars... When Ensign Paul Sinclair comes aboard the USS Michaelson for his very first tour, he’s surprised to be named ship’s legal officer. Four weeks of training isn’t much to help him advise on legal issues involving a crew of 200. But serving on a spacegoing warship requires he learn fast, even surrounded by strangers and juggling expectations from an absentee superior, daunting commanders, and a reckless captain. When the Michaelson comes into catastrophic contact with another vessel, Paul must answer his captain on what the law permits in the dark of space, even if it leads to trouble. But when a court-martial convenes shortly afterward, only he can decide if justice demands he risk his career, too...
A Research Agenda for Environmental Management
The understanding of global environmental management problems is best achieved through transdisciplinary research lenses that combine scientific and other sector (industry, government, etc.) tools and perspectives. However, developing effective research teams that cross such boundaries is difficult. This book demonstrates the importance of transdisciplinarity, describes challenges to such teamwork, and provides solutions for overcoming these challenges. It includes case studies of transdisciplinary teamwork, showing how these solutions have helped groups to develop better understandings of environmental problems and potential responses.
Kant’s Transcendental Semantics
Kant’s Transcendental Semantics is a translation of the most influential monograph on Kant published in Brazil, one that launched the “Semantic School” in a country with a thriving tradition of Kant scholarship. Zeljko Loparic differs from most interpreters of the Critique of Pure Reason in claiming that Kant’s main aim is neither metaphysical nor epistemological nor methodological but semantic in asking for the conditions for meaning and reference of terms in order to justify the possibility of meaningful discourse of different types.

Standardization of Financial Reporting and Accounting in Latin American Countries
Accounting has often been described as the language of business. As the increasing competition of overseas markets begins to affect even the smallest local companies, many more business professionals must become fluent in accounting principles and practice. Standardization of Financial Reporting and Accounting in Latin American Countries highlights the recent move to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and addresses some of the concerns raised due to cultural differences and the level of enforcement of these standards in separate countries. Describing the evolution of both financial and managerial accounting due to the adoption of IFRS, this book is an essential reference source for both students and seasoned professionals in the fields of accounting, finance, and related management fields, especially those with an international emphasis.

O homem da areia
"O homem da Areia me parece o conto mais representativo do maior autor fantástico do século XIX, o mais rico de sugestões e o mais forte em valor narrativo. A descoberta do inconsciente ocorre precisamente aqui, na literatura romântica fantástica, quase cem anos antes que lhe seja dada uma definição teórica." — Italo Calvino Inteiramente ilustrado com obras do artista Eduardo Berliner, o grande conto de Hoffmann fica ainda mais desconcertante. Obra que inspirou Freud para cunhar o conceito de Unheimlich, "O homem da areia" traz uma mistura de relato epistolar e narrativa que borra as fronteiras entre vigília e sonho, razão e loucura.
