A presente obra objetiva denunciar a opressão e a exploração de mulheres como um problema advindo da desigualdade estrutural produzida por um sistema de exploração do trabalho que é essencialmente racista e sexista. Aos termos, da materialidade dialética, serão apresentadas diferentes problemáticas dos estudos de gênero contemporâneos no Brasil, com ênfase nas consequências da realidade do capitalismo Neoliberal, bem como no conservadorismo social que se instrumentaliza como legitimidade histórica de violência de gênero e finalmente nas limitações e contribuições da proteção jurídica de mulheres. Sob um olhar decolonial, a crítica se coloca no alarde da falsa neutralidade ciêntífica baseada em um suposto sujeito do conhecimento universal, mas, que na verdade é masculino, branco e detentor de privilégios econômicos. Pretende-se uma obra sensível, fruto da orientação acadêmica feminista de mulheres potentes que acreditam na utopia de um amanhã permeado por maior liberdade e igualdade.

Perhaps only the animals can tell us what it is to be human. The souls of ten animals caught up in human conflicts over the last century tell their astonishing stories of life and death. In a trench on the Western Front a cat recalls her owner Colette's theatrical antics in Paris. In Nazi Germany a dog seeks enlightenment. A Russian tortoise once owned by the Tolstoys drifts in space during the Cold War. In the siege of Sarajevo a bear starving to death tells a fairytale. And a dolphin sent to Iraq by the US Navy writes a letter to Sylvia Plath. Exquisitely written, playful and poignant, Only the Animals is a remarkable literary achievement by this bright young writer. An animal's-eye view of humans at our brutal, violent worst and our creative, imaginative best, it asks us to find our way back to empathy not only for animals, but for other people, and to believe again in the redemptive power of reading and writing fiction.

Separation and purification processes play a critical role in biorefineries and their optimal selection, design and operation to maximise product yields and improve overall process efficiency. Separations and purifications are necessary for upstream processes as well as in maximising and improving product recovery in downstream processes. These processes account for a significant fraction of the total capital and operating costs and also are highly energy intensive. Consequently, a better understanding of separation and purification processes, current and possible alternative and novel advanced methods is essential for achieving the overall techno-economic feasibility and commercial success ...
Handbook of Cannabis and Related Pathologies: Biology, Pharmacology, Diagnosis, and Treatment is the first book to take an interdisciplinary approach to the understanding of cannabis use and misuse. Recent worldwide trends toward decriminalizing marijuana for medical use have increased legal use of the drug and recreational use remains high, making cannabis one of the most commonly used drugs. Cannabis has a wide range of adverse neurological effects, and use and abuse can lead to physical, social, and psychopathological issues that are multifarious and complex. Effective understanding and treatment requires knowledge of the drug's effects from across scientific disciplines. This book provid...
