The Nature of Nature
In an age of climate catastrophes and extinction, we need to turn back to nature and learn, once again, how to live sustainably on planet Earth—beginning with our relationship to food. Four billion years ago, Earth was a hot, lifeless planet. Through the process of evolution, the Earth and its diversity of living organisms gradually reduced the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. About 200,000 years ago, the conditions aligned for our own species—Homo sapiens—to emerge and thrive. But what will it take to continue to survive? In The Nature of Nature, world-renowned environmental thinker and activist Vandana Shiva argues that food is the currency of life, a thread woven throughout the w...
PROJETOS INTERDISCIPLINARES E A FORMAÇÃO INICIAL DE PROFESSORES/AS DE CIÊNCIAS
As ciências da natureza são carentes de diálogo entre si porque pouco o faz e por diferentes razões. Buscando um repensar, quatro formadores de uma IES Federal, em ação conjunta na disciplina Projetos Interdisciplinares IV, apresenta aqui um trabalho que envolveu formadores Doutores e graduandos das três áreas: Química, Física e Biologia. O que subsidiou a escrita foi a execução, os relatos e as experiências, frutos de um projeto de extensão que semestralmente tem chegado à escola, levado experimentação interdisciplinar e contribuído para a formação inicial e continuada.
Apontamentos para a Historia da Capitania de S. Thomé — Memórias Fluminenses, vol. 6
Publicado no ano de 1888, Apontamentos para a História da Capitania de S. Thomé foi a última obra de maior repercussão difundida pelo campista Francisco Augusto de Paula Carvalho, mais conhecido como Augusto de Carvalho, e o texto em que se dedicou a tratar da gênese da região de seu nascimento, a partir da colonização portuguesa. O ilustre entusiasta da história brasileira e do Norte Fluminense teve cuidado especial com as fontes e a objetividade, dividindo sua obra em uma parte preliminar, na qual discorreu sobre a traição de Calabar e a origem do nome do Brasil, seguida do tratamento cronológico da capitania de São Thomé pelos seus donatários Pero de Góes da Silveira (1536...
Temas e jogos digitais para educação alimentar e nutricional de adolescentes
Pensamos este livro como um apoio didático-pedagógico para os diversos profissionais envolvidos no cuidado alimentar e nutricional de adolescentes. As informações disponíveis nesta obra devem nortear atividades dialógicas com adolescentes em escolas, serviços de saúde e outros espaços de educação formais ou informais. Os capítulos são independentes e podem ser consultados como referencial teórico e prático para o desenvolvimento de ações (projetos individuais ou coletivos) de educação alimentar e nutricional com adolescentes na perspectiva da complexidade para o desenvolvimento de práticas alimentares resilientes e autônomas.
Local Food Plants of Brazil
There has been growing academic interest in local food plants. This is a subject that lies at the frontiers of knowledge of various areas, such as environmental sciences, nutrition, public health, and humanities. To date, however, we do not have a book bringing these multi-disciplinary perspectives to bear on this complex field. This book presents the current state of knowledge on local Brazilian food plants through a multidisciplinary approach, including an overview of food plants in Brazil, as well as comprehensive nutritional data. It compiles basic theories on the interrelationship between biodiversity and food and nutrition security, as well as ethnobotanical knowledge of local Brazilian food plants. Additionally, this title provides various methods of learning and teaching the subject, including through social media, artificial intelligence, and through workshops, among others.
Nanocarriers for Drug Delivery
This book covers basic aspects of different nanoparticles, including type of materials, lipid, polymeric and inorganic structures, synthesis strategies, as well as the main physicochemical characterization techniques. Moreover, this book addresses applications for both treatment and diagnosis of diseases, highlighting in vitro and in vivo findings and clinical evaluation. The chapters highlight the main barriers for drug delivery which can benefit from nanoencapsulation: the topical and oral routes. The main innovations in the field, such as gene therapy and functionalization of nanoparticles with a variety of moieties, including monoclonal antibodies for selective delivery, are discussed and illustrated with examples. Finally, the application of nanoparticles for drug delivery to cancer is reviewed considering toxicology and regulatory aspects.
Evidence-based Diagnosis
Explains the mathematics involved in understanding and choosing an array of diagnostic and prognostic tests, in order to improve treatment.
Progress in Artificial Intelligence
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th EPIA Conference on Artificial Intelligence, EPIA 2021, held virtually in September 2021. The 62 full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 108 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: artificial intelligence and IoT in agriculture; artificial intelligence and law; artificial intelligence in medicine; artificial intelligence in power and energy systems; artificial intelligence in transportation systems; artificial life and evolutionary algorithms; ambient intelligence and affective environments; general AI; intelligent robotics; knowledge discovery and business intelligence; multi-agent systems: theory and applications; and text mining and applications.
