Specific chapters are devoted to art...
The Portuguese Inquisition is often portrayed as a tyrannical institution that imposed itself on an unsuspecting and impotent society. The men who ran it are depicted as unprincipled bandits and ruthless spies who gleefully dragged their neighbors away to rot in dark, pestilential prisons. In this new study, based on extensive archival research, James E. Wadsworth challenges these myths by focusing on the lay and clerical officials who staffed the Inquisition in colonial Pernambuco, one of Brazil's oldest, wealthiest, and most populated colonies. He argues that the Inquisition was an integral part of colonial society and that it reflected and reinforced deeply held social and religious value...

Despite success with treatment when diagnosed early, breast cancer is still one of the most fatal forms of cancer for women. Imaging diagnosis is still one of the most efficient ways to detect early breast changes with mammography among the most used techniques. However, there are other techniques that have emerged as alternatives or even complementary tests in the early detection of breast lesions (e.g., breast thermography and electrical impedance tomography). Artificial intelligence can be used to optimize image diagnosis, increasing the reliability of the reports and supporting professionals who do not have enough knowledge or experience to make good diagnoses. Biomedical Computing for B...
O que fez de um rio não catalogado pela ciência até o século XVII se tornar uma referência econômica nos meados dos séculos XIX e até a metade do século XX e desencadear a criação e urbanização de cidades ao longo de suas margens? A resposta está inserida no contexto deste livro sob o título Geografia Histórica de Carauary do Yuruá: 130 anos de mudança socioeconômica, territorial e ambiental. A referida obra faz um resgate histórico do Reconhecimento do Rio Juruá, a partir de uma missão pacificadora diplomática da Comissão Mista Brasileiro-Peruana, resultando em um relatório bem mais científico que diplomático, sobre o rio considerado o mais sinuoso do mundo. A obra é considerada uma coletânea de diferentes ciências como: antropologia, arqueologia, biogeografia, economia, geografia física, hidrografia, história, paleontologia, patologia, política, sociedade, cultura, território e meio ambiente, que por certo irá contribuir para o norteamento ou guia intelectual aos estudantes, professores e o público em geral que tenham disposição em expandir seus conhecimentos sobre o rio Juruá e o município e cidade de Carauari.
