Raíces comunes e historias compartidas
Situado en la ruta del pensamiento latinoamericano crítico, reflexivo y dialogante con los universalismos occidentales, la colonialidad de poder, los afrosaberes y la sociohistoria de mujeres, hombres, jóvenes, músicos, poetas, políticos e intelectuales, este libro simboliza un esfuerzo por promover diálogos transfronterizos y transculturales sobre diversos asuntos concernientes a la realidad pasada, presente y futura de Centroamérica, el Caribe, México, desde una perspectiva de análisis regional y diferentes miradas analíticas y políticas. se trata de una apuesta intelectual por dirimir los profundos vínculos históricos, los comunes problemas estructurales y los desafíos de las agudas crisis económicas, políticas y sociales regionales, a partir de las dinámicas que redimensionan la configuración política de todo Mesoamérica.
Natural Products as Source of Molecules with Therapeutic Potential
This book addresses the highly relevant and complex subject of research on drugs from natural products, discussing the current hot topics in the field. It also provides a detailed overview of the strategies used to research and develop these drugs. Respected experts explore issues involved in the production chain and when looking for new medicinal agents, including aspects such as therapeutic potential, functional foods, ethnopharmacology, metabolomics, virtual screening and regulatory scenarios. Further, the book describes strategic methods of isolation and characterization of active principles, biological assays, biotechnology of plants, synthesis, clinical trials and the use of tools to identity active principles.
Biology of Polar Benthic Algae
This work synthesizes the current state of knowledge on the biology of polar benthic marine algae and presents an outlook on their responses to changing environmental conditions in polar regions. Topics treated include environment, biodiversity and biogeography of micro- and macroalgae, including an update of the knowledge of the red algal flora of Antarctica. It treats the chemical ecology as well as the primary production and ecophysiology of polar benthic algae with new information on the important contribution of benthic microalgae to the productivity in costal areas.
Hidden Histories
Tuscany is a landscape whose cultural construction is complicated and multi-layered. It is this very complexity that this book seeks to untangle. By revealing hidden histories, we learn how food, landscape and architecture are intertwined, as well as the extent to which Italian design and contemporary consumption patterns form a legacy that draws upon the Romantic longings of a century before. In the process, this book reveals the extent to which Tuscany has been constructed by Anglos — and what has been distorted, idealized and even overlooked in the process.
Dependency Linguistics
This volume offers the reader a unique possibility to obtain a concise introduction to dependency linguistics and to learn about the current state of the art in the field. It unites the revised and extended versions of the linguistically-oriented papers to the First International Conference on Dependency Linguistics held in Barcelona. The contributions range from the discussion of definitional challenges of dependency at different levels of the linguistic model, its role beyond the classical grammatical description, and its annotation in dependency treebanks to concrete analyses of various cross-linguistic phenomena of syntax in its interplay with phonetics, morphology, and semantics, including phenomena for which classical simple phrase-structure based models have proven to be unsatisfactory. The volume will be thus of interest to both experts and newcomers to the field of dependency linguistics and its computational applications.
Gendercide
'Readers interested in feminist studies, applied ethics, or social and political philosophy should find Gendercide especially interesting and informative. Highly recommended.'-CHOICE
