The first – and long-awaited – major biography of Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva Lula is among the greatest political figures in Brazilian history. The only president in the country with a working-class background, combined with a party that was profoundly original in its roots, he exercised charismatic power and influence in a more lasting way than any other public figure in the republican period. Since 2011, Fernando Morais, one of Brazil's leading writers, has gained direct, frank and frequent access to Lula. To these dozens of hours of testimonies, he has added a reporter's flair and captivating prose to compose a biography that paints a picture in all its grandeur and complexity. In a narrative that makes use of flashforwards and flashbacks to maintain an electrifying pace, Morais goes from Lula's childhood to the annulment of his convictions, in 2021, passing through the new unionism, the ABC strikes, the foundation of the PT and the first election campaign.

Since ancient times, explorers and adventurers have captured popular imagination with their frightening narratives of travels gone wrong. Usually, these stories heavily feature the exotic or unknown, and can transform any journey into a nightmare. Stories of such horrific happenings have a long and rich history that stretches from folktales to contemporary media narratives.This work presents eighteen essays that explore the ways in which these texts reflect and shape our fear and fascination surrounding travel, posing new questions about the "geographies of evil" and how our notions of "terrible places" and their inhabitants change over time. The volume's five thematic sections offer new insights into how power, privilege, uncanny landscapes, misbegotten quests, hellish commutes and deadly vacations can turn our travels into terror.
Após implementação do processo de enfermagem na área hospitalar, para o seu aperfeiçoamento, torna-se necessário submetê-lo a um sistema de avaliação. Como a análise de todas suas etapas é um trabalho complexo, extenso e demanda tempo mais longo, considerou-se oportuno focalizar esta pesquisa no histórico ou avaliação inicial de enfermagem, por ser a primeira fase desse processo, que sustenta a elaboração dos diagnósticos. O objetivo do presente estudo foi construir um instrumento de avaliação para um modelo de histórico de enfermagem centrado na integralidade de pacientes adultos hospitalizados. Trata-se de uma pesquisa metodológica descritiva, em três fases: revisão da literatura, escolha do modelo de histórico de enfermagem e construção do instrumento de avaliação.
