This book describes the fauna of the Pernambuco Endemism Center in Brazil's Northern Atlantic Forest, an understudied global biodiversity hotspot. Through fifteen curated chapters, it provides the latest information about the fauna of the northern portion of the Atlantic Forest, gathering important information about the faunal composition of the region for the first time. The chapters address animal biodiversity including terrestrial and aquatic vertebrates (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals) and invertebrates (ants, butterflies, dung beetles, hervestmen, spiders, and termites). All chapters provide species lists, taxonomic aspects and richness analysis. Conservation of specific animal groups is also discussed. Finally, the book discusses human impacts on the forest and its biodiversity, emphasizing the need for conservation of this highly impacted ecosystem.
O estudo exarado nos capítulos da presente publicação contribuem com textos que versam de algum modo, direta ou indiretamente, a educação e o ensino numa perspectiva da teoria ou pela prática pedagógica com a intenção de trazer ideias interdisciplinares e questionamentos para incentivar o debate a respeito do ensino e da aprendizagem. Tudo isso se revela por meio de novos olhares multidisciplinares na educação e articulados pelos conhecimentos teóricos aos práticos, possibilitando ampliar e significar os múltiplos saberes no campo da educação.
A sociedade capitalista globalizada dos dias atuais continua seu itinerário, ora ocultando, ora desvelando (algumas!?) de suas múltiplas facetas (…). Mesclam-se ou apartam-se tempos e momentos de: alegria e tristeza, sorrisos e lágrimas, calmaria e caos, ensinar e aprender, entre tantos outros paradoxos verossimilhantes que poderiam ser mencionados. Doce, salgado, agridoce, amargo, azedo ou umami se convulsionam sinergeticamente como sabores alusivos não somente ao paladar humano, mas também à vida (pessoal, familiar, matrimonial, profissional, escolar, acadêmica, etc.). Cara ou coroa: eis as duas faces distintas de uma mesma moeda. Apresentar uma obra científica é sempre um momen...

Focus: Music of Northeast Brazil examines the historical and contemporary manifestations of the music of Brazil, a country with a musical landscape that is layered with complexity and diversity. Based on the author’s field research during the past twenty years, the book describes and analyzes the social/historical contexts and contemporary musical practices of Afro-Brazilian religion, selected Carnival traditions, Bahia’s black cultural renaissance, the traditions of rural migrants, and currents in new popular music. Part One, Understanding Music in Brazil, presents important issues and topics that encompass all of Brazil, and provides a general survey of Brazil’s diverse musical landscape. Part Two, Creating Music in Brazil, presents historical trajectories and contemporary examples of Afro-Brazilian traditions, Carnival music, and northeastern popular music. Part Three, Focusing In, presents two case studies that explore the ground-level activities of contemporary musicians in Northeast Brazil and the ways in which they move between local, national, and international realms. The accompanying downloadable resources offer vivid musical examples that are discussed in the text
The three-volume set LNAI 14195, 14196, and 14197 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th Brazilian Conference on Intelligent Systems, BRACIS 2023, which took place in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, in September 2023. The 90 full papers included in the proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 242 submissions. They have been organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Best papers; resource allocation and planning; rules and feature extraction; AI and education; agent systems; explainability; AI models; Part II: Transformer applications; convolutional neural networks; deep learning applications; reinforcement learning and GAN; classification; machine learning analysis; Part III: Evolutionary algorithms; optimization strategies; computer vision; language and models; graph neural networks; pattern recognition; AI applications.
People have relied on medicinal products derived from natural sources for millennia, and animals have long been an important part of that repertoire; nearly all cultures, from ancient times to the present, have used animals as a source of medicine. Ingredients derived from wild animals are not only widely used in traditional remedies, but are also increasingly valued as raw materials in the preparation of modern medicines. Regrettably, the unsustainable use of plants and animals in traditional medicine is recognized as a threat to wildlife conservation, as a result of which discussions concerning the links between traditional medicine and biodiversity are becoming increasingly imperative, particularly in view of the fact that folk medicine is the primary source of health care for 80% of the world’s population. This book discusses the role of animals in traditional folk medicine and its meaning for wildlife conservation. We hope to further stimulate further discussions about the use of biodiversity and its implications for wildlife conservation strategies.
