Esta coletânea surgiu com a proposta de divulgar resultados de pesquisas, desenvolvidas no âmbito do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação (PPGE) da Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências (FFC), Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho” (UNESP), Campus de Marília, que abordam a intersecção dos temas ética, moral e valores com a Educação. O livro reuniu 18 textos resultantes de pesquisas de Mestrado, Doutorado e Pós-Doutorado, concluídas ou em andamento, que foram distribuídos em duas partes. Na primeira parte, Contribuições, análises e reflexões teóricas, encontram-se 11 textos que abordam resultados de pesquisas que investigaram os temas em questão no p...
Para além de uma discussão que parece estar na moda, a proposta desse livro é contribuir, de fato, para as reflexões e práticas que dinamizam e movimentam o ambiente escolar. Quando se pretende articular ética, formação, interculturalidade e decolonialidade para pensar as coisas da educação, ele quer dialogar não apenas com os pesquisadores das temáticas aqui tratadas, mas sobretudo chegar ao ambiente da escola e da sala de aula. São nesses lugares que, efetivamente, emergem situações desafiadoras que, no mais das vezes, as pessoas têm dificuldades em compreender, reconhecer e construir soluções. Sempre recorrendo ao mais do mesmo, o que geralmente acontece é um olhar supe...
Neste número especial de Natureza humana, estamos publicando as comunicações apresentadas no I Congresso Internacional de Filosofia da Psicanálise, realizado na PUC-SP e na Unicamp em 2005.
Vols. for 1969- include a section of abstracts.
This book describes the process of immunomodulation and the plants which possess immunomodulation properties to boost the immune system. The immunomodulation process is highly relevant to address emerging as well as existing diseases in humans. A better immune system triggers the cellular responses for neutralizing and combating the onset of disease conditions. Chapters in the book discuss plants that have profound effects on the health and well-being of humans. They discuss the natural phytochemicals that have immense diversity and uniqueness of molecules. Molecules belonging to phenylpropanoids, terpenoids, steroids, alkaloids, and tannins etc possess a variety of pharmacological activities. The chapters describe how bioactive exert effects even when taken as part of the diet, supplement, and or as traditional herbal medicine. This book provides up-to-date scientific knowledge about the activities and mechanisms and leads in the area of medicinal plants and phytochemicals with immunomodulation properties. This book is meant for students, academics, researchers, and industry professionals interested in pharmacology, immunology, and plant secondary metabolites.
This book aspires to be a comprehensive summary of current biofuels issues and thereby contribute to the understanding of this important topic. Readers will find themes including biofuels development efforts, their implications for the food industry, current and future biofuels crops, the successful Brazilian ethanol program, insights of the first, second, third and fourth biofuel generations, advanced biofuel production techniques, related waste treatment, emissions and environmental impacts, water consumption, produced allergens and toxins. Additionally, the biofuel policy discussion is expected to be continuing in the foreseeable future and the reading of the biofuels features dealt with in this book, are recommended for anyone interested in understanding this diverse and developing theme.
This book presents a current review of the science of monsoon research and forecasting. The contents are based on the invited reviews presented at the World Meteorological Organization''s Fourth International Workshop on Monsoons in late 2008, with subsequent manuscripts revised from 2009 to early 2010. The book builds on the concept that the monsoons in various parts of the globe can be viewed as components of an integrated global monsoon system, while emphasizing that significant region-specific characteristics are present in individual monsoon regions. The topics covered include all major monsoon regions and time scales (mesoscale, synoptic, intraseasonal, interannual, decadal, and climate change). It is intended to provide an updated comprehensive review of the current status of knowledge, modeling capability, and future directions in the research of monsoon systems around the world.
Alcoholic Beverages, Volume Seven in The Science of Beverages series, is a multidisciplinary resource for anyone who needs deeper knowledge on the most recent approaches in beverage development, technology, and engineering, along with their effects on beverage composition, quality, sensory and nutritional features. The book discusses main alcoholic beverages, such as spirits and wines that are thoroughly analyzed in terms of production, sustainability, and future perspectives. It offers examples of the new trends and the most recent technologies and approaches in the industry of alcoholic drinks. - Includes a variety of trending ingredients for novel beverage production - Provides different approaches for the identification of adulterations and contaminants in alcoholic beverages - Includes research examples and applications of different products, such as beer, wine, and spirits
The incorporation of functional ingredients in a given food system and the processing and handling of such foods are associated with nutritional challenges for their healthy delivery. The extreme sensitivity of some components cause significant loss of product quality, stability, nutritional value and bioavailability, and the overall acceptability of the food product. Consequently, encapsulation has been successfully used to improve stability and bioavailability of functional ingredients. Encapsulation is one example of technology that has the potential to meet the challenge of successfully incorporating and delivering functional ingredients into a range of food types. The book will cover to...
The relatively new technique of solid phase microextraction (SPME) is an important tool to prepare samples both in the lab and on-site. SPME is a "green" technology because it eliminates organic solvents from analytical laboratory and can be used in environmental, food and fragrance, and forensic and drug analysis. This handbook offers a thorough background of the theory and practical implementation of SPME. SPME protocols are presented outlining each stage of the method and providing useful tips and potential pitfalls. In addition, devices and fiber coatings, automated SPME systems, SPME method development, and In Vivo applications are discussed. This handbook is essential for its discussion of the latest SPME developments as well as its in depth information on the history, theory, and practical application of the method. - Practical application of Solid Phase Microextraction methods including detailed steps - Provides history of extraction methods to better understand the process - Suitable for all levels, from beginning student to experienced practitioner
