En los últimos años, el Derecho y el sistema legal han sido puestos a prueba debido a los diversos desequilibrios y crisis que han tenido que enfrentar, como el proceso de globalización acelerado, las crisis financieras, la afectación grave al medio ambiente en forma de cambio climático y, recientemente, una pandemia. El objetivo de este libro es analizar el futuro del derecho en sociedades en transformación. En cuanto a la metodología, se utiliza un enfoque cualitativo, descriptivo, basado en investigación documental y estudios de casos. Se analizan diferentes ejemplos que evalúan aspectos considerados prioritarios en el Derecho, con el fin de extrapolar patrones que puedan ser afines al objetivo de generar una teoría que dé cuenta de este devenir, en relación con lo político, lo económico y lo social. Un Derecho que vuelva a ser considerado desde una variedad de disciplinas, con una multiplicidad de perspectivas y análisis y, sobre todo, que esté al servicio de las personas, la sociedad y la vida en el planeta.
Reservoir Characterization is a collection of papers presented at the Reservoir Characterization Technical Conference, held at the Westin Hotel-Galleria in Dallas on April 29-May 1, 1985. Conference held April 29-May 1, 1985, at the Westin Hotel—Galleria in Dallas. The conference was sponsored by the National Institute for Petroleum and Energy Research, Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Reservoir characterization is a process for quantitatively assigning reservoir properties, recognizing geologic information and uncertainties in spatial variability. This book contains 19 chapters, and begins with the geological characterization of sandstone reservoir, followed by the geological prediction of shale d...
The microwave and millimeter wave frequency range is nowadays widely exploited in a large variety of fields including (wireless) communications, security, radar, spectroscopy, but also astronomy and biomedical, to name a few. This Special Issue focuses on the interaction between the nanoscale dimensions and centimeter to millimeter wavelengths. This interaction has been proven to be efficient for the design and fabrication of devices showing enhanced performance. Novel contributions are welcome in the field of devices based on nanoscaled geometries and materials. Applications cover, but not are limited to, electronics, sensors, signal processing, imaging and metrology, all exploiting nanoscale/nanotechnology at microwave and millimeter waves. Contributions can take the form of short communications, regular or review papers.

The book is an instrumental tool for Process Engineers, Chemical Engineers, Process Control Technicians, Water Chemists, Environmental Chemists, Materials Scientists and Patent Lawyers.
This handbook covers anatomy and physiology before moving on to identification, investigation and management of specific endocrine disorders. As well as covering common and less common endocrine problems, there are also chapters on endocrine investigations and endocrine emergencies, designed for quick reference.
Examining growth hormone resistance, this text includes coverage of such topics as: growth hormone receptor signalling; metabolic actions of growth hormone - direct and indirect; and IGF bioactivity and its modification in growth hormone resistance in childhood.
This book investigates how sustainability informs the universal principles used in domestic and international law. It calls for the acceptance of sustainability as a recognized legal principle which could be applied to the entire legal system rather than just environmental law and regardless of its international or domestic levels. To this end, the book makes a contribution to a theory of global law by discussing whether, as a universally shared concern, environmental protection and the principle of sustainability should contribute to the 'greening' of the fundamental principles of law and governance. The book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers and policy makers working in the areas of environmental law and governance.
