José Soares de Araújo. A grande decoração barroca em Diamantina, no século XVIII
José Soares de Araújo ( Braga 1723-Diamantina 1799) è stato un pittore portoghese che è vissuto e lavorato in Brasile, a quel tempo colonia portoghese. La società di allora era gerarchica, diseguale e piena di pregiudizi, dove la possibilità di un rapido arricchimento era rallentata dalla rigidità delle relazioni sociali basate sul colore della pelle e sull'origine sociale . In un ambiente più incerto e ostile di quello del Portogallo, la mancanza di controllo sociale esercitato dalla fede, dovuta dall'assenza di rappresentanti degli ordini religiosi di ogni ordine e grado, minacciava di far decadere lo status quo e di aprire le porte alla prevalenza delle religioni africane. Il pittore realizzò ad Arraial do Tijuco in Minas Gerais quadri di quadratura influenzati dal gesuita Andrea Pozzo aggiungendovi elementi prospettici, producendo insiemi eruditi che riverberavano i valori religiosi e politici della Corona portoghese nella colonia, rispondendo così all'esigenza di stabilire la supremazia religiosa cattolica.

Mulheres do Brasil: artes e artistas
Il lavoro nel campo della storia dell'arte è stato ampiamente definito da un referenziale europeo. Allo stesso modo, la prospettiva di genere pur avendo un'attenzione crescente è ancora insufficiente nelle recenti ricerche in quel campo. La ricerca femminista nella storia dell'arte ha cercato di rivalutare la produzione artistica delle donne in questa realtà di notevoli trasformazioni e molteplicità culturali e riscrivendo storie rese invisibili se non cancellate dalla tradizione canonica. L'invisibilità di queste manifestazioni artistiche costituisce infatti una lacuna che fortemente marca e segna l'esclusione delle donne, soprattutto di quelle che non si adattano allo stereotipo scelt...
Food Safety Culture
Food safety awareness is at an all time high, new and emerging threats to the food supply are being recognized, and consumers are eating more and more meals prepared outside of the home. Accordingly, retail and foodservice establishments, as well as food producers at all levels of the food production chain, have a growing responsibility to ensure that proper food safety and sanitation practices are followed, thereby, safeguarding the health of their guests and customers. Achieving food safety success in this changing environment requires going beyond traditional training, testing, and inspectional approaches to managing risks. It requires a better understanding of organizational culture and ...

Social Research Methods
Text accompanied by a companion web site.
Drug Utilization Research
Drug Utilization Research (DUR) is an eclectic scientific discipline, integrating descriptive and analytical methods for the quantification, understanding and evaluation of the processes of prescribing, dispensing and consumption of medicines and for the testing of interventions to enhance the quality of these processes. The discipline is closely related and linked mainly to the broader field of pharmacoepidemiology, but also to health outcomes research, pharmacovigilance and health economics. Drug Utilization Research is a unique, practical guide to the assessment and evaluation of prescribing practices and to interventions to improve the use of medicines in populations. Edited by an international expert team from the International Society for Pharmacoepidemiology (ISPE), DUR is the only title to cover both the methodology and applications of drug utilization research and covers areas such as health policy, specific populations, therapeutics and adherence.
Twitter and Society
Since its launch in 2006, Twitter has evolved from a niche service to a mass phenomenon; it has become instrumental for everyday communication as well as for political debates, crisis communication, marketing, and cultural participation. But the basic idea behind it has stayed the same: users may post short messages (tweets) of up to 140 characters and follow the updates posted by other users. Drawing on the experience of leading international Twitter researchers from a variety of disciplines and contexts, this is the first book to document the various notions and concepts of Twitter communication, providing a detailed and comprehensive overview of current research into the uses of Twitter. It also presents methods for analyzing Twitter data and outlines their practical application in different research contexts.
