Comparative Perspectives on the Rise of the Brazilian Novel
Comparative Perspectives on the Rise of the Brazilian Novel presents a framework of comparative literature based on a systemic and empirical approach to the study of the novel and applies that framework to the analysis of key nineteenth-century Brazilian novels. The works under examination were published during the period in which the forms and procedures of the novel were acclimatized as the genre established and consolidated itself in Brazil.
Tracking Medicine
Written by a groundbreaking figure of modern medical study, Tracking Medicine is an eye-opening introduction to the science of health care delivery, as well as a powerful argument for its relevance in shaping the future of our country. An indispensable resource for those involved in public health and health policy, this book uses Dr. Wennberg's pioneering research to provide a framework for understanding the health care crisis; and outlines a roadmap for real change in the future.

Handbook of Aviation Neuropsychology
The field of aviation neuropsychology helps us to understand and improve human performance and safety in the aerospace industry, both for the estimated 300,000+ commercial pilots and the 4.5 billion passengers they transport every year. This handbook brings together a group of internationally renown academic and industry experts to provide a comprehensive overview of the background, goals, principles, challenges, and associated practice skills and research themes of aviation neuropsychology. After an introduction to the history and development of aviation psychology, additional sections focus on the importance of prevention and resilience to enhance airline workers' cognitive and mental func...
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

Quality Assurance of Health Services
This report presents a policy- and methodology-oriented discussion of factors involved in developing and analyzing quality assurance in European health care. Data are taken from research literature and interviews with representatives of national health authorities, professional organizations, and research and educational institutions. The first chapter of this report discusses a suggested conceptual framework, for a program of health care quality assurance, derived from evaluative research and industrial quality control. The second, third, and fourth chapters deal with three major variables in the framework: environment, conceptualization, and methodology. Examples of different approaches to quality assurance are given, and sources of information and measurement instruments and criteria are examined. The fifth chapter presents conclusions concerning the trends and state of quality assurance in health care. A bibliography of 179 items is appended. (FG)
Foucault
Michel Foucault and Paul Veyne: the philosopher and the historian. Two major figures in the world of ideas, resisting all attempts at categorization. Two timeless thinkers who have long walked and fought together. In this short book Paul Veyne offers a fresh portrait of his friend and relaunches the debate about his ideas and legacy. ‘Foucault is not who you think he is’, writes Veyne; he stood neither on the left nor on the right and was frequently disowned by both. He was not so much a structuralist as a sceptic, an empiricist disciple of Montaigne, who never ceased in his work to reflect on 'truth games', on singular, constructed truths that belonged to their own time. A unique testimony by a scholar who knew Foucault well, this book succeeds brilliantly in grasping the core of his thought and in stripping away the confusions and misunderstandings that have so often characterized the interpretation of Foucault and his work.
Evaluation of Health Care
This book is about concepts and methods of evaluation in health care. This is a relatively new field and the conceptual framework, the methods and the vocabulary are still being developed. The text is divided into three parts. Part One describes the fundamental concepts and their interrelationships. Part Two describes the basic methods. Part Three presents examples of their applications. Throughout an attempt has been made to use a consistent set of terms and a glossary is presented for the sake of clarity. This book should complement an earlier one1 which describes the basic methods of epidemiology in relation to health. The Commission of the European Communities commissioned the Panel for Epidemiology and Social Medicine to prepare both in order to promote better communication and exchange between health-care policy makers and administrators, clinicians, and epidemiologists. They are intended for use at the crossroads of health care management, clinical care, and medical research.
Direito Processual Previdenciário
A obra Direito Processual Previdenciário marcou teoricamente a exigência jurídica de que os institutos, as normas e as técnicas processuais do processo civil comum sejam flexibilizados quando destinados a regular as ações previdenciárias. Esta nova edição de Direito Processual Previdenciário expressa, em cada detalhe, o cuidado de relacionar, às exigências do estudo e da prática profissional, as normas do Código de Processo Civil, as recentes alterações na legislação previdenciária e as atuais conformações da jurisprudência pátria. Em relação às edições anteriores, o livro surpreende pela consistência argumentativa oferecida às novas e mais diversas problemáticas processuais previdenciárias, assim como pela ampliação dos temas, que são tratados de forma didática e segura pelo autor, o que lhe credencia como uma das mais importantes obras doutrinárias desse campo do direito.
