En Colombia desde diversos ámbitos y atendiendo a las dinámicas y circunstancias socio-políticas, culturales, económicas y axiológicas actuales, se observa que, desde hace unos tres lustros, la demanda por los servicios y las acciones de "atención", "intervención", "acompañamiento psicosocial" están a la orden del día. El surgimiento y consolidación de éstos, así como de ofertas para la cualificación profesional desde los variados programas de pregrado, posgrados (maestrías y doctorados), redes académico-investigativas y otras formas de intercambios humanos en pro que la persona individual y colectivamente dignifique, funcionalice e interactúe lo más saludablemente posible y con el mejor y mayor sentido vital, son los objetivos teleológicos de múltiples alternativas gubernamentales -y no gubernamentales-, mediadas por los cimientos de las políticas públicas ( o de la construcción de éstas) para las multifacéticas y caleidoscópicas posibilidades de la interactividad existencial.
En Colombia desde diversos ámbitos y atendiendo a las dinámicas y circunstancias socio-políticas, culturales, económicas y axiológicas actuales, se observa que, desde hace unos tres lustros, la demanda por los servicios y las acciones de "atención", "intervención", "acompañamiento psicosocial" están a la orden del día.Esta nueva publicación en torno al envejecimiento como proceso y a la vejez como etapa del ciclo / curso vital humano (y de los seres vivos en general), es el producto de un esfuerzo conjunto, humano, académico-investigativo, inspirado en la responsabilidad y aporte al contexto social, dinamizado por una diversidad de grupos etarios, entre quienes se encuentran las personas mayores, en el país y fuera de éste.
This two-volume set (CCIS 915 and CCIS 916) constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th Workshop on Engineering Applications, WEA 2018, held in Medellín, Colombia, in October 2018. The 50 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from126 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections such as computer science; computational intelligence; simulation systems; software engineering; power and energy applications.
This handbook provides the first systematic integrated analysis of the role that states or state actors play in the construction of history and public memory after 1945. The book focuses on many different forms of state-sponsored history, including memory laws, monuments and memorials, state-archives, science policies, history in schools, truth commissions, historical expert commissions, the use of history in courts and tribunals etc. The handbook contributes to the study of history and public memory by combining elements of state-focused research in separate fields of study. By looking at the state’s memorialising capacities the book introduces an analytical perspective that is not often found in classical studies of the state. The handbook has a broad geographical focus and analyses cases from different regions around the world. The volume mainly tackles democratic contexts, although dictatorial regimes are not excluded.
This book provides information on synthesis, properties, and applications of carbon nanomaterials. With novel materials, such as graphene (atomically flat carbon) or carbon onions (carbon nanospheres), the family of carbon nanomaterials is rapidly growing. This book provides a state-of-the-art overview and in-depth analysis of the most important ca

Telomerase, an enzyme that maintains telomeres and endows eukaryotic cells with immortality, was first discovered in tetrahymena in 1985. In 1990s, it was proven that this enzyme also plays a key role in the infinite proliferation of human cancer cells. Now telomere and telomerase are widely accepted as important factors involved in cancer biology, and as promising diagnostic tools and therapeutic targets. Recently, role of telomerase in “cancer stem cells” has become another attractive story. Until now, there are several good books on telomere and telomerase focusing on biology in ciliates, yeasts, and mouse or basic sciences in human, providing basic scientists or students with updated knowledge.
The thought-provoking essays brought together in Engaging Affects, Thinking Feelings: Social, Political and Artistic Practices balance critical thinking with creative opportunities to imagine new possibilities. With an international breadth that crosses continents and an interdisciplinary orientation that connects diverse scholarly fields, this collection is ambitious in its scope. At the same time, the essays focus on the small details, embodied traces, and intimate spaces of experience often overlooked or devalued within dominant discourses. Exploring diverse issues and methodologies, the contributions here share a willingness to pay close attention to vulnerable subjects that challenge readers to think beyond the rational and binary limits of academic knowledge. As such, the authors simultaneously engage readers’ intellects and emotions as they write passionately about subjects ranging from war, food, sexuality, geography, social media, poetry, photography, and philosophy. The result is a text that offers diverse ways of mobilizing an array of affect theories in relation to specific sites of interpretation, activism, and creativity.
The art world is no longer defined by the activity of traditional art centres such as New York, Berlin, Beijing, or London, but is instead shaped by many cities, small and large. This book explores the hybrid nature of today's international artistic landscape by introducing readers to the art scenes in six featured cities.
