Nesta obra, a cada página de leitura, o leitor é convidado a assumir o leme de uma navegação entre mundos imaginários e reais. Trata-se de uma navegação que promete prender o leitor numa saga inspiradora, com relatos e impressões que fazem do autor, Mariano Hebenbrock, um Julio Verne bem pós-moderno, senão na melhor descrição do que o flânerie da poesia de Baudelaire. Um sujeito deambulante nos espaços da cidade. Sem destino, mas destinos. Assim, numa volta ao mundo que se inicia na cidade do Recife, em Pernambuco, para os mais distintos destinos do planeta. Ou seria o contrário!? Não, não. Na verdade, Mariano sempre foi do mundo para o mundo, assim provando que o nomadismo,...
Understanding Media, Today. McLuhan in the Era of Convergence Culture
Ranging from hydrogenation to hydroamination, cycloadditions and nanoparticles, this first handbook to comprehensively cover the topic of iridium in synthesis discusses the important advances in iridium-catalyzed reactions, namely the use of iridium complexes in enantioselective catalysis. A must for organic, complex and catalytic chemists, as well as those working with/on organometallics.
"Marshall McLuhan, a central figure in the fields of communication studies and media ecology, is one of the most important and influential intellectuals of the twentieth century. This volume of original essays brings together 29 leading experts from a wide variety of academic disciplines, and from the media professions, to explore, assess, critique, and extend McLuhan's rich and controversial legacy. The contributors to this anthology address such diverse areas as communication studies, journalism, literature, art and art history, archeology, computer science, digital media, philosophy, theology, law, history, psychology, sociology, political science, and cultural studies. The Legacy of McLuhan goes further than any previous study in showing the broad and far-reaching impact of the thought, the publication and the life of Herbert Marshall McLuhan."--BOOK JACKET.

This book spans diverse aspects of modified nucleic acids, from chemical synthesis and spectroscopy to in vivo applications, and highlights studies on chemical modifications of the backbone and nucleobases. Topics discussed include fluorescent pyrimidine and purine analogs, enzymatic approaches to the preparation of modified nucleic acids, emission and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for studying nucleic acid structure and dynamics, non-covalent binding of low- and high-MW ligands to nucleic acids and the design of unnatural base pairs. This unique book addresses new developments and is designed for graduate level and professional research purposes.
A refreshingly unconventional look at architecture and the World Wide Web. Using Vitruvius' classical text De Arquitectura as a starting point, De Kerckhove begins a journey into the exciting world of the Internet. On the one hand he explores the architecture of this revolutionary medium, on the other, he considers the wide-ranging opportunities which the IT world offers for architectonic design, revealing how this new medium for communication is as much based on tradition as on innovation. Derrick de Kerckhove is the Director of the McLuhan Institute and Professor at the University of Toronto. His research into the effects of innovative technology on human communication, of new media on traditional culture have gained worldwide recognition.
