Las últimas décadas han evidenciado no solamente un creciente interés acerca de todo lo concerniente a la vejez y a los viejos, sino acerca de las diversas perspectivas desde las cuales se ha abordado el envejecimiento, tan diversas como las múltiples facetas que componen este proceso. De ahí que este libro, Envejecer en el siglo xxi, se haya pensado para estimular el “aprender a aprender” sobre estos temas, más allá de las aulas universitarias; para ofrecer soluciones a las problemáticas sociales, y para que los profesionales de la salud se comuniquen de manera efectiva en los diferentes escenarios del desempeño profesional. También se concibió para consolidar la adquisición de saberes a través de un hilo conductor de contextos sociales y humanísticos desde los cuales se enlazan los problemas clínicos. Además, mediante una integración horizontal, plantea al lector una forma dinámica en la manera de concebir la vejez y de contemplar, al mismo tiempo, el nacimiento de ciencias como la biología, la estadística o la antropología, para determinar al final una mirada integral al surgimiento de la gerontología con sus componentes multidisciplinarios.

This 5 volume set represents the first complete English translation of one of the major chronicles of medieval Europe, by 'the father of Portuguese historiography' Covering the reigns of Pedro I, Fernando I and João I up to the signing of the 1411 treaty with Castile which confirmed the survival of the Portuguese kingdom, the chronicles provide a wealth of detail on late fourteenth-century politics, diplomacy, warfare and economic matters, courtly society, queenship and noble women, as well as more mundane concerns such as food, health and the purchasing power of a fluctuating currency. Lopes had a keen eye for detail and a perspective especially attuned to the common people, and his chronicles provide an invaluable source for the history of Western Europe in the later Middle Ages. The first four volumes are accompanied by introductions and bibliographies setting the translations in context, and the fifth volume contains a general bibliography and a comprehensive general index encompassing all of the chronicles.
Includes entries for maps and atlases.
