Contribuições da criatividade em diferentes áreas do conhecimento

O que é um livro? Um livro, na fria definição dos dicionários, não passa de páginas encadernadas contendo textos e imagens. Prefiro a definição dos poetas. Como diz Mário Quintana, poeta mor: “Os livros não mudam o Mundo, quem muda o Mundo são as pessoas. Os livros só mudam as pessoas”. Daí a responsabilidade de quem escreve. A pretensão deste livro não é tão grande, diferente do “Cérebro” dos desenhos animados não acordamos hoje com o intuito de usar a nossa criatividade como sempre a usamos: para “conquistar o mundo”. Nosso objetivo, aqui, é o de compartilhar com os interessados as pesquisas que fizemos sobre o tema criatividade na qual explorando o poder da...

Golden Gulag

Since 1980, the number of people in U.S. prisons has increased more than 450%. Despite a crime rate that has been falling steadily for decades, California has led the way in this explosion, with what a state analyst called "the biggest prison building project in the history of the world." Golden Gulag provides the first detailed explanation for that buildup by looking at how political and economic forces, ranging from global to local, conjoined to produce the prison boom. In an informed and impassioned account, Ruth Wilson Gilmore examines this issue through statewide, rural, and urban perspectives to explain how the expansion developed from surpluses of finance capital, labor, land, and sta...

Customs Law of the European Union

  • Categories: Law

Today, global competition obliges companies dealing in international trade to modernize their procedures of delivery in order to minimize the customs burden and simplify the relation with customs authorities. Customs planning is the current option to be effective in the worldwide marketplace. However, customs officials are facing new challenges: they must ensure the smooth flow of trade while applying necessary controls on the one hand, while protecting the health and safety of the Community's citizens on the other. To achieve and maintain the correct balance between these demands, control methods are constantly evolving raising major challenges to those charged with planning and compliance....

Psiquiatria para estudantes de Medicina

Este livro básico de psiquiatria foi desenvolvido para estudantes de medicina ou qualquer outros da área da saúde mental. Observamos, no decorrer de toda a existência da psiquiatria em nosso meio, que o ensino/aprendizado dessa área tem se dado predominantemente através de livros didáticos traduzidos e construídos em uma realidade muito diferente da nossa. Nas avaliações realizadas a cada final de semestre letivo, frequentemente deparamo-nos com a observação dos alunos de que os livros-texto de psiquiatria sao complexos e de difícil entendimento, muitos deles afirmando que se trata de livros escritos "por psiquiatras para psiquiatras e não para estudantes". Com a experiencia de duas edições anteriores de tiragem esgotadas, construímos a atual terceira edição, contando com a participação de mais de 100 professores de psiquiatria de 25 universidades brasileiras. Boa leitura a todos, Os organizadores.
