TEMAS EM EDUCAÇÃO: Olhares Interdisciplinares, Reflexões e Saberes – Vol. 2
A presente obra reúne e abarca capítulos que abordam diversos temas educacionais e interdisciplinares com as diversas áreas do conhecimento e níveis de escolaridade. Deste modo, integram os conhecimentos que contribuem esclarecer e orientar, de modo aprofundado, os recursos de aperfeiçoamento tão necessários para auxiliar no processo de ensino e aprendizagem tanto para os profissionais evolvidos ou interessados em Educação. Assim, entende-se que a interdisciplinaridade presente nos capítulos desta obra tornam-se instrumentos fundamentais para promover a atuação conjunta com diversos campos do saber, especialmente frutífero quando são aplicados na vivência escolar ou fora dela para a construção dos conhecimentos e na obtenção dos resultados educacionais esperados.

Understanding Health Promotion
In health promotion, easy access to good information is often hard to achieve. Understanding Health Promotion, whilst grounded solidly in theory, draws on the research undertaken by the authors to focus on practice. 'Guidebooks' containing expert summaries and practical information areintegrated throughout to help students expore the resources which are available to support the work of health promotion practitioners.Written for students, the textbook follows a logical 3-part structure and is rich in pedagogy, containing key take-home messages, case studies, exercises, key terms, useful websites, further reading and summaries. Part 1 lays the foundations for understanding health promotion and in particular,the implications of the social determinants of health. Part 2 covers the key practice skills for health promotion. Part 3 describes actions that promote health from different sectors or parts of our society.The combination of theory, research and 'real world' practical application makes this book an essential learning tool for students.
Physical Activity & Well-being

The following articles are included: (1) "Physical Growth and Maturation" (Robert M. Malina); (2) "Acquisition of Motor Skills During Childhood" (John L. Haubenstricker and Vern D. Seefeldt); (3) "Development of Sensory-Motor Function in Young Children" (Harriet G. Williams); (4) "Memory Development and Motor Skill Acquisition" (Jerry R. Thomas and Jere Dee Gallagher); (5) "Physical Activity and the Prevention of Premature Aging" (Waneen W. Spirduso); (6) "Physical Activity and Body Composition" (Pat Eisenman); (7) "Neuromuscular Adaptations to High-Resistance Exercise" (Gary ...
Communication in Healthcare
Communication within the context of health and social care faces many challenges. Our understanding of how language and communication information is processed by the brain is increasing our awareness of the complexities involved and the influence of normal ageing on communication processing. Care systems are becoming more complex and service users demand more information and choice. At the same time, the range of service users encountered by practitioners includes more people with varied language backgrounds, and greater language and cultural diversity is occurring among health and social care staff. This volume explores current challenges to achieving effective communication in health and social care. It outlines how practitioners communicate, innovative methods for teaching communication skills, and methodologies to include children and people with communication difficulties in research and in consultation processes about healthcare. Particular communication issues, within the context of healthcare, for population groups such as older people, asylum seekers, young offenders and people with mental health problems are also addressed.
Direct and Inverse Scattering on the Line
This book deals with the theory of linear ordinary differential operators of arbitrary order. Unlike treatments that focus on spectral theory, this work centers on the construction of special eigenfunctions (generalized Jost solutions) and on the inverse problem: the problem of reconstructing the operator from minimal data associated to the special eigenfunctions. In the second order case this program includes spectral theory and is equivalent to quantum mechanical scattering theory; the essential analysis involves only the bounded eigenfunctions. For higher order operators, bounded eigenfunctions are again sufficient for spectral theory and quantum scattering theory, but they are far from s...
The Reception Of Unconventional Science
The issue of perhaps greatest concern to historians of science today is the internalist-externalist dichotomy. This volume directly addresses that issue, at the same time providing a context for the serious study of heterodox science and scientific theories. The book consists of four studies, each of which considers the response of a scientific community to an unconventional theory or claim: the acausal physics of Heisenberg; Wegener's geological theory of continental drift; acupuncture; and the statistical argument for extrasensory perception. As they reveal a wide range of reactions to orthodoxy, the studies themselves exemplify the range of approaches the historian may use in examining scientific unconventionality.
