Una historia, cuatro historias.

La escuela de ayer, hoy y mañana: claves y desafíos
Vivimos inmersos en una crisis mundial, que no es solo una crisis económica. Es decir, asistimos a una crisis política, cultural y de valores. Y para superarla, para conquistar el futuro, la necesidad más grande que tenemos es la educación: un derecho que nosotros, mejor o peor, tenemos y disfrutamos, pero que dista mucho de ser universal en la realidad. Por ello, hoy se habla más que nunca de educación. Se piensa más que nunca en el modo de adaptar la escuela a los grandes desafíos que tenemos ante nosotros, a nivel local y a nivel universal. En consecuencia, es más urgente que nunca reflexionar individual y colectivamente: profesoras y profesores, madres y padres, universidades, e...

Pilgrimage as Transformative Process
The construct of transformation has emerged as a prominent theme in academic discourse. Based on the accepted notion that processes and living organisms are in an ongoing state of development, it is unsurprising that this concept of transformation would find resonance within literature on the pilgrimage phenomenon. Examples of transformational processes intersecting with pilgrimage are the movement from sickness to wellness, from grief to closure and from fractured to integrated. That the pilgrimage journey itself can be construed as a transformational quest was noted by Winkleman and Dubisch (2005), who stated “Life-transforming experiences are at the core of both ‘traditional’ and more contemporary forms of pilgrimage”. In the current volume, Warfield and Hetherington examine the transformational process of pilgrimage journeys. Contributors are Sharenda Holland Barlar, Anne M. Blankenship, Valentina Bold, Shirley du Plooy, Alexandria M. Egler, Miguel Tain Guzman, Kate Hetherington, Scott Libson, Chadwick Co Sy Su, Kip Redick, Roy Tamashiro and Heather A. Warfield.

Applying Emotional Intelligence
The explosion of research on emotional intelligence (EI) in the past decade has provided increasing evidence that EI can be measured reliably and can be useful in predicting important outcomes, such as managerial effectiveness and relationship quality. Naturally, people are now asking, "So, how does one improve EI?". Applying Emotional Intelligence collects the most important programs focused on that idea, and enquires of their originators, "What do you do?", "Why do you do it?", and, "What is the evidence for your approach?". The emphasis of the book is applied, in that it provides and contrasts concrete examples of what we do in our interventions in a wide variety of situations. The chapte...
