La eficacia de lo sencillo

Esta obra ofrece al lector una primera aproximación a la redacción periodística, centrada en el caso de la prensa. el libro va más allá de una introducción a los géneros periodísticos y a sus usos, ya que se adentra en el tratamiento de la información y en el análisis de las diferentes formas de obtenerla, trabajarla y publicarla. En este sentido debe entenderse también el estudio de la labor que desarrollan las agencias de información y de los gabinetes de comunicación. A estos dos aspectos se les dedica sendos capítulos del libro. Pero además de un acercamiento a la redacción periodística, hay un segundo gran elemento que se analiza en este libro. El tratamiento de la imag...

Corruption and Reform in India

This book asks why some governments improve public services more effectively than others. Through the investigation of a new era of administrative reform, in which digital technologies may be used to facilitate citizens' access to the state, Jennifer Bussell's analysis provides unanticipated insights into this fundamental question. In contrast to factors such as economic development or electoral competition, this study highlights the importance of access to rents, which can dramatically shape the opportunities and threats of reform to political elites. Drawing on a sub-national analysis of twenty Indian states, a field experiment, statistical modeling, case studies, interviews of citizens, bureaucrats, and politicians, and comparative data from South Africa and Brazil, Bussell shows that the extent to which politicians rely on income from petty and grand corruption is closely linked to variation in the timing, management, and comprehensiveness of reforms. The book also illuminates the importance of electoral constituencies and coalition politics in shaping policy outcomes.

Actin-based Motility

Since the discovery of actin by Straub in the 1950’s and the pioneering work of Oosawa on actin self-assembly in helical laments in the 1960’s, many books and conference proceedings have been published. As one of the most essential p- teins in life, essential for movement in organisms rangingfrom bacteria to higher eukaryotes, it is no surprise that actin has fascinated generations of scientists from many different elds. Actin can be considered as a “living treasure” of biology; the kinetics and thermodynamics of self-assembly, the dissipative nature of actin po- merization, the molecular interactions of monomeric and polymerized actin with regulators, the mechanical properties of ac...
