Como primeiro livro no Brasil totalmente projetado, produzido e escrito por mulheres negras evangélicas, temos esperança de que a coletânea Vozes Que Não Se Calam - Cartas de um Evangelho Brasileiro, Feminino e Negro desperte em você, leitora ou leitor, a percepção da importância de mulheres negras escreverem sobre a sua fé. Afinal, é pela forma que nos escrevemos, nos contamos e nos imaginamos, que conseguimos entender quem somos. A coletânea vislumbra um fazer teológico que não vem da academia, mas do chão onde tocam os pés daquelas que integram as experiências de nossas igrejas. “O livro mostra o cotidiano vivido pelas mulheres negras nas igrejas. A igreja é reflexo da ...
Pré / Fácies Versatilidade foi uma das suas maiores qualidades, descendente de imigrantes italianos, Landa nasceu em Mairinque – São Paulo, mas foi em Sorocaba que ela viveu grande parte de sua vida, sendo integrante da Academia Sorocabana de Letras e tendo recebido o título de Cidadã Sorocabana pela Câmara Municipal de Sorocaba. Em 1952 publicou seu primeiro livro de poesias, As Quatro Volúpias, prefaciado pelo romancista Afonso Schimidt, que a definiu como “a mulher das sete graças”. Contista, sua obra O Sonho recebeu um dos prêmios do II Concurso Literário Sudameris. Além do romance Negra, publicado em 1999 pela TCM, Poemas - para Ler Com Música , três outras obras de s...

Spencer, Dominic Standish, Tim B. Swartz, Dan Travis, Theresa Walton-Fisette, and Zhong Yijing Given the presumed dominance of American sport, many fans throughout the hemisphere find it difficult to envision the role of sport beyond the confines of their own continent. And yet, world sport consists of so much more than the games Americans play and so much more than the stereotype of cricket for the...

This edited book is a compilation of findings on the molecular and cellular toxicity of nanoparticles (NPs) in animal cell, human cells, invertebrates. The varied selection of test models will provide better understanding about the horizon of NPs toxicity. Interaction of NPs with cells and its organelles can induce toxicological consequences, including transcriptional and translational alterations, DNA damage, cytotoxicity, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death. NPs can get internalized in cells through phagocytosis, macropinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis and passive penetration, which can affect varied cell types. Readers will be benefited with the compilations...
The accumulation of large amounts of contaminants occurs in the environment due to industrialization and various other anthropogenic activities. Contaminants ultimately affect human health worldwide. Organic, inorganic, and radioactive substances are the prevalent forms of environmental contaminants and their complete remediation in soils and sediments is rather a difficult task. Concerns of their toxicities led to the emphasis on development of effective techniques to assess the presence and mobility of contaminants in air, water, and soil. Furthermore, the ever-increasing concentration of toxic pollutants in the environment is considered a serious threat to plant, animal, human, and enviro...

This book describes various strategies for the synthesis of green nanoparticles using plant extracts and microbes, including the advantages and disadvantages of different methods and their applications. After discussing strategies for and the potential of green synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles, it highlights the role of the solvent system. The book then explores the stability/toxicity of nanoparticles and the associated-surface engineering techniques for achieving biocompatibility, and examines the antimicrobial efficacy of green nanoparticles with regard to various bacterial pathogens, as well as the underlying cytotoxicity mechanisms. Lastly, the book addresses the potential applications of various green nanoparticles in cancer theranostics, and reviews a number of plant-mediated nanoparticles as potential pharmaceutical agents. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to all scientists and students wanting to learn more about the synthesis and applications of green nanoparticles.
