O saneamento básico consiste em atividade de fundamental importância para qualquer sociedade. É capaz de fortes impactos econômicos e sobretudo sociais. A interconexão do tema com a saúde e o meio ambiente e, consequentemente, com o desenvolvimento econômico definem a importância do debate e impõem medidas prospectivas mais reais de politicas públicas para o setor. É nesse contexto que a presente obra se insere, fruto de debates e pesquisas do Grupo de Estudos de Direito Administrativo (GDA) realizados no decorrer do ano de 2016. Assim, temos o enorme prazer de apresentar os resultados dos estudos e pesquisas por meio da presente obra coletiva que brinda o leitor com os temas debatidos ao longo do ano. O desafio encarado com garra e dedicação por todos do GDA gerou essa obra importante para o cenário jurídico. Por isso, agradecemos a todos que escreveram e também aqueles que, diretamente ou indiretamente, contribuíram com a produção do trabalho. E o GDA prossegue o seu caminhado estudando agora a relação do Direito Administrativo com as novas tecnologias.
Climate Change and Cities bridges science-to-action for climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts in cities around the world.
As transformações por que passa o mundo, velhos problemas continuam em evidência. Dentro dos direitos humanos, o saneamento básico continua a ser um grande desafio. A titularidade da gestão da água e do esgotamento sanitário está no topo das discussões. A recente lei sobre o Marco do Saneamento trouxe transformações no setor, como concorrência, universalização, regulação pela Agência Nacional de Águas. Neste sentido a obra coletiva sobre direito sanitário está atenta na busca de identificar problemas e soluções, tanto na gestão desses direitos pela iniciativa pública quanto pela iniciativa privada. O livro pode ser utilizado por profissionais e estudantes de Direito que tenham interesse em conhecer as discussões atuais acerca do direito sanitário, mas também a todos aqueles que queiram se colocar a par nesta área do conhecimento.
Diabetes has become a worldwide health problem, the global estimated prevalence approaches ten percent and the burden of this disease in terms of morbidity and mortality is unprecedented. The advances acquired through the knowledge of the mechanisms of the disease and the variety of therapeutic approaches contrast with the inability of private and public health systems in underdeveloped and even developed countries to achieve the goals of treatment. This paradox has been described in many sources: the surge of scientific advances contrast with an unprecedented amount of human suffering. Thus, a patient centered and an evidence based approach with the capacity to produce measurable clinical a...
Active botanical ingredients are a prime requirement for herbal formulations and discovering a drug is all about integration of science disciplines. In recent decades there has been a growing interest in treating wounds and diseases using traditional remedies based on local herbs, combined with chemical advances. Although this has led to the development of new bioactive ingredients from plants, there has been little success in terms of clinical trials and post-marketing studies to comply with FDA guidelines. Plants have been used as a source of medicine throughout history and continue to serve as the basis for many pharmaceuticals used today. However, despite the modern pharmaceutical indust...
A timely symposium entitled Body-Fluid Homeostasis: Transduction and Integration was held at Araraquara, São Paulo, Brazil in 2011.

Broad international participation at this event generated stimulating discussion among the invited speakers, leading to the publication of Neurobiology of Body Fluid Homeostasis: Transduction and Integration. Drawn from the proceedings and filled with rich examples of integrative neurobiology and regulatory physiology, this volume: Provides updated research...
Fifty years after the foundation of the OAU and the consolidation of most African states and institutions, the international panorama and Africa’s position in it have changed considerably. The world's geopolitical and economic configuration has evolved, with new actors appearing in a new period of globalization. In tone with ECAS 2013, this volume proposes that the experiences appearing in Africa question dominant paradigms in terms of political practice and academic reflection and thus offer a clear challenge to the academic community. The volume offers clues to answer questions such as: What is the impact of the current processes of globalization for African countries and African citizens? How should African Studies be engaged to gauge African dynamics, both at a local and global level? What interdisciplinary means and tools should be brought in to produce an epistemologically relevant view (or narrative) of the issues under analysis?
This unique new handbook explains this emerging dispute resolution model of collaborative law that is helping family lawyers bring their clients through the divorce passage with integrity and satisfaction. Collaborative Law describes how this approach engages the unique problem-solving skills of lawyers to achieve settlements that creatively and appropriately customize outcomes in the way that few courts are able to achieve. In the collaborative process, fees and costs are minimized, high-quality legal counsel and negotiating assistance are built in, and the ability of divorcing spouses to cooperate and coparent is maximized to a dramatic extent.
