Abortion: what We Ought to Believe: an Ontological and Normative Analysis
En esta tesis me pregunto si, moralmente hablando, debemos concebir el aborto como matar a alguien o, más bien, como impedir que alguien exista. En primer lugar, presento algunas distinciones preliminares acerca de valores y de razones prácticas. En segundo lugar, comparo la solidez de diferentes argumentos a favor de la posición de que abortar es como matar a alguien. Propongo seguidamente que el mejor de tales argumentos es aquél que considera que, respecto a la ética de matar, los hechos relevantes que nos dan razones son aquéllos acerca del valor que la vida de la víctima tiene para ésta, así como que la identidad diacrónica es lo que importa en la supervivencia. Finalmente, presento una serie de desafíos a las asunciones ontológicas y normativas de dicho argumento, que al cabo encuentro deficiente. De la consideración de esas objeciones concluyo que es mejor concebir el aborto, desde la razón práctica, como una decisión acerca de cuál de varios seres posibles devendrá actual, y, por ende, como parte de la ética poblacional.

Derecho de daños, principios morales y justicia social
Riesgos y daños, de Jules L. Coleman, publicado originalmente en 1992, es el primer testimonio comprehensivo de que el derecho privado también puede ser interesante para la filosofía. Su influencia ha sido enorme, en grado tal que resulta difícil comprender el desarrollo de la teoría del derecho privado sin tomar nota del impacto que Riesgos y daños ha tenido en la disciplina. Todavía hoy, esta obra conserva plenamente su vigencia, en tanto sigue siendo el punto de partida obligado para quien desee embarcarse en el estudio de los fundamentos de la responsabilidad civil. En conmemoración de los veinte años de la publicación de Riesgos y daños, la Universidad de Girona organizó una...

Doing Business in 2005
Doing Business in 2005: Obstacles to Growth is the second in a series of annual reports investigating the scope and manner of regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it. New quantitative indicators on business regulations and their enforcement can be compared across more than 130 countries, and over time.

Topics in Doing Business in 2005 include: Licensing and Inspections: Having registered a business, now what? In most countries, firms face a myriad of sector specific licenses as well as inspections to enforce compliance. The Doing Business database construc...
Resolving Spectral Mixtures
Resolving Spectral Mixtures: With Applications from Ultrafast Time-Resolved Spectroscopy to Superresolution Imaging offers a comprehensive look into the most important models and frameworks essential to resolving the spectral unmixing problem—from multivariate curve resolution and multi-way analysis to Bayesian positive source separation and nonlinear unmixing. Unravelling total spectral data into the contributions from individual unknown components with limited prior information is a complex problem that has attracted continuous interest for almost four decades. Spectral unmixing is a topic of interest in statistics, chemometrics, signal processing, and image analysis. For decades, resear...
