As selfies do Instagram
Os autorretratos produzidos através de dispositivos digitais circulam nas redes sociais configurando um novo gênero fotográfico que são as selfies. Dos autorretratos do século XIX ao regime visual da pós-fotografia estas imagens certificam a presença das pessoas nos acontecimentos. Entender a estrutura rizomática do Instagram, as questões estéticas de construção de sentidos e a forma de visibilidade vinculada a sociedade de controle possibilita discutir a fotografia algorítmica que tem instruções e intencionalidades definidas para a vigilância das pessoas pela produção imagética.

Horizontes do pensamento geográfico
Esta bela obra é fruto da efervescência de ideias, inovações e afetos que o GRUPEG proporciona. Traz um recorte de pesquisas que, produzidas de forma colaborativa e dialogada, torna possível avanços na ciência, nas pesquisas que envolvem a formação inicial e continuada de professores de Geografia e, ainda, no fazer docente que se efetiva tanto na educação escolar, quanto nas práticas e experiências do PIBID e da Residência Pedagógica. Nesse sentido, por meio das produções que envolvem estudantes e professores do curso de Licenciatura em Geografia da Universidade Estadual do Sudoeste da Bahia (UESB), da Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz (UESC), da Universidade Federal de Sergipe (UFS), dos Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação (PPGEd), em Geografia (PPGEO) e em Ensino (PPGEn), tem se tornado espaço-tempo de produção de conhecimento e de práticas de ensino de Geografia que reverberam em profissionais implicados com as transformações da sociedade através da proposição de atividades diversas, fortalecidas pela atuação viva, potente e dinâmica que o GRUPEG possibilita.
Philosophies of Technology
The essays in the present volume attempt to historically reconstruct the various dependencies of philosophical and scientific knowledge of the material and technical culture of the early modern era and to draw systematic conclusions for the writing of early modern history of science. The divisive transformation of humanist scholarly culture, the Scholastic school philosophy, as well as magic in the form of a philosophy of practice is always associated with the work of Francis Bacon. All of these essays in this volume reflect the close interaction between technical models and knowledge production in natural philosophy, natural history and epistemology. It becomes clear that the technological developments of the early modern era cannot be adequately depicted in the form of a pure history of technology but rather only as part of a broader, cultural history of the sciences. Contributors include: Todd Andrew Borlik, Arianna Borrelli, Thomas Brandstetter, Daniel Damler, Luisa Dolza, Moritz Epple, Berthold Heinecke, Dana Jalobeanu, J rgen Klein, Staffan M ller-Wille, Romano Nanni, Jarmo Pulkkinen, Pablo Schneider, Andr s Vaccari, Benjamin Wardhaugh, Sophie Weeks, and Claus Zittel.

The pollination of cultivated plants: A compendium for practitioners
More than twenty years ago, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations contributed to the growing recognition of the role of pollination in agricultural production, with the publication of “The Pollination of Cultivated Plants in the Tropics”. Since that time, the appreciation of pollinators has grown, alongside the realization that we stand to lose them. But our knowledge and understanding of crop pollination, pollinator biology, and best management practices has also expanded over this time. This volume is the second of two “compendiums for practitioners”, sharing expert knowledge on all dimensions of crop pollination in both temperate and tropical zones. The focus in this second volume is on management, study and research tools and techniques.
Crop Pollination by Bees
The collapse of the ubiquitous honeybee population during the past 20 years has caused a pollination vacuum for many crops. Surveys and grower experience indicate that a crisis exists in our pollinator populations. This book is an accessible, practical and authoritative research-based guide to using bees for crop pollination. It emphasizes conserving feral bee populations as well as more traditional methods of culturing honeybees and other bees. There are three main sections that address the biology of pollination, culturing and managing bees for optimum crop pollination, and individual crop pollination requirements and recommendations. This last section includes 42 short chapters on different crops.
Broken Angel
One rule: don't lose. When Gabriel Morgan's sister disappears somewhere in New York's underground, he'll do anything to save her. But finding her is only the beginning, because Marcus Slade won't let her go for less than ten million dollars - earned through Gabriel's blood. Slade, one of five ruthless leaders of an organization identified only by a symbol, runs hookers and street fighters, and never gives up what's his. Including Gabriel's sister. To win her freedom, Gabriel is forced to undergo a brutal training program with Slade's top fighters in order to become one of them. He is branded, broken, given a new image, and a new name. In the ring, Gabriel is known as Angel...and he does not lose. Because the price for losing is his sister's life.
Pictorial Cultures and Political Iconographies
The pictorial turn in the humanities and social sciences has emphasized the political power of images and the extent to which historical, political, social, and cultural processes and practices are shaped visually. The volume gathers original articles by visual culture studies experts in the fields of Art History, American Studies, History, and Political Science from Europe and the United States. The collection explores the political function and cultural impact of images and how political iconographies interpret norms of actions, support ideological formations, and enhance moral concepts. Visual rhetorics are understood as active players in the construction and contestation of the political realm and public space. Individual essays address concepts and theories for a politics of art and perception, investigate national(ist) forms of political representation on both sides of the Atlantic, and interpret the iconographic repertoires of specific cultures and political systems from the eighteenth century to the immediate present.
