Pityusa
Both Pityusa (1907) and its author Jose Maria Llanas Aguilaniedo (1875-1921), are two key elements in the study the Spanish fin de siecle culture and decadentism. The novel orbits around the love triangle of the prostitute Pityusa, the weak aristocratic Nikko, and his uncle Tinny, a man of action past his prime. The three will live their relation in the Balearic island of Menorca, turned into an oppressive environment that stifles its inhabitants willpower. Narrated in a pictorial language the novel agglutinates some compelling issues that impregnated the Spanish culture at the turn of the XIX Century, namely feminity, sexual desire and the overwhelming presence of the medical discourse. Jose Maria Llanas Aguilaniedo has been locked within the small and rare authors pantheon, an injustice because his double stance as medical practitioner and writer turn his well written novels, articles and essays on aesthetics and criminology into very interesting testimonials of the Spanish fin de siecle society This edition, with a foreword and notes by Alba del Pozo Garcia, casts a light over the text's historical and cultural background while helping the modern reader enjoy the text."
Computational Methods and Clinical Applications in Musculoskeletal Imaging
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Computational Methods and Clinical Applications for Musculoskeletal Imaging, MSKI 2018, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2018, in Granada, Spain, in September 2018. The 13 workshop papers were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume. Topics of interest include all major aspects of musculoskeletal imaging, for example: clinical applications of musculoskeletal computational imaging; computer-aided detection and diagnosis of conditions of the bones, muscles and joints; image-guided musculoskeletal surgery and interventions; image-based assessment and monitoring of surgical and pharmacological treatment; segmentation, registration, detection, localization and visualization of the musculoskeletal anatomy; statistical and geometrical modeling of the musculoskeletal shape and appearance; image-based microstructural characterization of musculoskeletal tissue; novel techniques for musculoskeletal imaging.
Clifford Algebras
The invited papers in this volume provide a detailed examination of Clifford algebras and their significance to analysis, geometry, mathematical structures, physics, and applications in engineering. While the papers collected in this volume require that the reader possess a solid knowledge of appropriate background material, they lead to the most current research topics. With its wide range of topics, well-established contributors, and excellent references and index, this book will appeal to graduate students and researchers.
Computational and Decision Methods in Economics and Business
This book presents different topics related to innovation, complexity, uncertainty, modeling and simulation, fuzzy logic, decision-making, aggregation operators, business and economic applications, among others. The chapters are the results of research presented at the International Workshop "Innovation, Complexity and Uncertainty in Economics and Business", held in Barcelona, in November 2019, by The Ibero-American Network for Competitiveness, Innovation and Development (REDCID in Spanish) and the Royal Academy of Economic and Financial Sciences (RACEF in Spanish). These papers are useful for junior and senior researchers in the area of economics and business.

Recent Advances in Computational Methods and Clinical Applications for Spine Imaging
This book contains the full papers presented at the MICCAI 2014 workshop on Computational Methods and Clinical Applications for Spine Imaging. The workshop brought together scientists and clinicians in the field of computational spine imaging. The chapters included in this book present and discuss the new advances and challenges in these fields, using several methods and techniques in order to address more efficiently different and timely applications involving signal and image acquisition, image processing and analysis, image segmentation, image registration and fusion, computer simulation, image based modeling, simulation and surgical planning, image guided robot assisted surgical and image based diagnosis. The book also includes papers and reports from the first challenge on vertebra segmentation held at the workshop.
