Amazonia in the Anthropocene
Widespread human alteration of the planet has led many scholars to claim that we have entered a new epoch in geological time: the Anthropocene, an age dominated by humanity. This ethnography is the first to directly engage the Anthropocene, tackling its problems and paradoxes from the vantage point of the world’s largest tropical rainforest. Drawing from extensive ethnographic research, Nicholas Kawa examines how pre-Columbian Amerindians and contemporary rural Amazonians have shaped their environment, describing in vivid detail their use and management of the region’s soils, plants, and forests. At the same time, he highlights the ways in which the Amazonian environment resists human manipulation and control—a vital reminder in this time of perceived human dominance. Written in engaging, accessible prose, Amazonia in the Anthropocene offers an innovative contribution to debates about humanity’s place on the planet, encouraging deeper ecocentric thinking and a more inclusive vision of ecology for the future.
Role-Playing Game: práticas, ressignificações e potencialidades
Este livro reúne pesquisas diretamente ligadas ao Role-playing Game (RPG). Por vezes alvo de críticas negativas pela mídia geral desde seu surgimento e popularização, o RPG passou a ser visto como um jogo que ajudou a socializar pessoas e estimular-lhes a imaginação. Diversos sistemas de jogos e regras foram criados, e com tamanha popularidade desse jogo sua inserção no meio escolar e acadêmico era previsível. Procuramos, nesse livro, trazer importantes colaborações de pesquisadores de todo o Brasil sobre como o RPG pode ser benéfico a mediadores e público-alvo envolvidos. A falta de familiaridade aos assuntos não se mostra empecilho a quem nunca esteve envolvido com esse tipo de jogo, e – como qualquer outro desafio – qualquer interessado poderá aprender e ensinar com o RPG, se dedicar seu tempo para tal. Os textos aqui contidos podem ser um bom ponto de partida para essa nova jornada.

Local Food Plants of Brazil
There has been growing academic interest in local food plants. This is a subject that lies at the frontiers of knowledge of various areas, such as environmental sciences, nutrition, public health, and humanities. To date, however, we do not have a book bringing these multi-disciplinary perspectives to bear on this complex field. This book presents the current state of knowledge on local Brazilian food plants through a multidisciplinary approach, including an overview of food plants in Brazil, as well as comprehensive nutritional data. It compiles basic theories on the interrelationship between biodiversity and food and nutrition security, as well as ethnobotanical knowledge of local Brazilian food plants. Additionally, this title provides various methods of learning and teaching the subject, including through social media, artificial intelligence, and through workshops, among others.
Narrativas interativas contemporâneas
Este livro pode funcionar como uma sequência, ou melhor, uma expansão de outra publicação prévia: Role-Playing Game: práticas, ressignificações e potencialidades. Devido ao sucesso de recepção desse e-book, nossa ideia inicial foi organizar outro livro que continuasse a abranger estudos ligados aos RPGs, dos mais tradicionais aos mais contemporâneos. Com novos textos, novas inspirações surgiriam. No entanto, visando ampliar ainda mais o leque do que pretendíamos oferecer ao leitor, decidimos por incluir outras possibilidades. Assim surgiu a ideia das Narrativas interativas contemporâneas, englobando estudos sobre multimodalidade e interatividade, não necessariamente presas ao RPG. O leitor continua, aqui, a se deparar com temas e abordagens variadas, publicados por autores ligados ao que se pretende desenvolver neste espaço. Acreditamos, assim, que novos textos, explorações e ideias são capazes de alimentar ainda mais a pesquisa em áreas relativamente novas. Ao passo que buscamos inovar, na medida do possível, temos em mente que os campos permanecem tão vastos quanto um jogo no estilo sandbox. Um dos segredos para explorá-los é, justamente, a criatividade.
