From the Bench to the Witness Stand
When a renowned Puerto Rican surgeon is slapped with a malpractice suit out of nowhere that defies all trustworthy existing scientific knowledge, he must face the absurdity and injustice of all levels of the local courts up to the P.R. Supreme Court, and later advance to Appellate and Supreme Courts of the U.S. He describes his insights into the failures of the system toward common citizens and the backroom deals that define our legal practices: the faulty, highly politicized selection of judges and justices; deficient preparation and evaluation of lawyers and, above all, the perceived absolute immunity and impunity of judges who answer to no one for their failures in applying the law. It is a thought-provoking read that will challenge the notion that the legal system exists to protect the rights of all citizens.
Plastic Pollution In The Global Ocean
Plastic pollution is a growing environmental problem that is attracting increasing interest across society, from academics to the general public. A significant factor in the wide public interest in plastics is its visibility; present throughout urban and rural environments, washing up on beaches and even visible from space. However, 'invisible' microplastics and nanoplastics are also an issue. With growing plastic production and usage, plastic waste within the environment will continue to increase. This increased input along with its persistence leads to accumulation and increasing ecosystem exposure, with as-yet unknown consequences.This book brings together a collection of chapters written by world-leading experts in environmental plastic pollution inputs, fate, effects and solutions. It provides an accessible overview of the current scientific understanding, future implications and key considerations for the management and mitigation of plastic waste within the global ocean.Related Link(s)
The Bacteriophages
This authoritative, timely, and comprehensively referenced compendium on the bacteriophages explores current views of how viruses infect bacteria. In combination with classical phage molecular genetics, new structural, genomic, and single-molecule technologies have rendered an explosion in our knowledge of phages. Bacteriophages, the most abundant and genetically diverse type of organism in the biosphere, were discovered at the beginning of the 20th century and enjoyed decades of used as anti-bacterial agents before being eclipsed by the antibiotic era. Since 1988, phages have come back into the spotlight as major factors in pathogenesis, bacterial evolution, and ecology. This book reveals their compelling elegence of function and their almost inconceivable diversity.Much of the founding work in molecular biology and structural biology was done on bacteriophages. These are widely used in molecular biology research and in biotechnology, as probes and markers, and in the popular method of assesing gene expression.

Foot and Mouth Disease
"Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV), the cause of these dramatic consequences, is one of the smallest animal viruses, yet is often quoted as being the most infectious agent known. This book, for the first time, presents the story of FMDV as written by world experts on the virus. Initial chapters describe the structure of the virus and what is known of the molecular mechanisms that enable it to replicate faster than any other known animal virus. Anti-FMD vaccines are made in vast quantities and can be extremely effective for disease control. However, the ability of the virus to change rapidly is a constant headache for vaccine manufacturers. Both vaccine production and virus evolution are reviewed comprehensively. In addition to vaccination, disease control requires accurate and sensitive diagnostic procedures and effective hygiene measures. Modern molecular epidemiology and the measures available for infection control are described in further chapters." "Finally, the role of wildlife in the spread and maintenance of FMD is discussed."--BOOK JACKET.
Metodología de la investigación jurídica
Esta cuidada compilación, constituida por un rico y variado conjunto de propuestas metodológicas contemporáneas, conforma una obra original. Entre las múltiples razones de ello, cabe destacar que es la primera obra con estas caracterísiticas en habla hispana. Otra virtud es haber integrado los aportes de numerosos científicos sociales y jurídicos prestigiosos de diversas nacionalidades y trayectorias disciplinares y epistemológicas. Se trata de una obra que combina la reflexión detallada sobre tópicos clásicos como la metodología de la dogmática jurídica según la óptica de diversas áreas (derecho penal, privado, de daños,etc.), la historia y sociología del derecho, la crim...
Teoria da Conduta na Realização Jurisdicional do Direito Penal
Na realização jurisdicional do direito penal, ao conjugarmos direito substantivo, direito adjectivo e, dentro deste último, direito probatório, podemos identificar um comportamento ilícito-típico fundamentado na matéria de facto e na matéria de direito, admitindo que o processo penal estabelece as suas próprias regras quanto à forma como as pessoas podem conhecer e comprovar a realidade onde assumem os comportamentos, admitindo que o direito penal substantivo tem os seus próprios pressupostos, formais e informais, para qualificar os comportamentos, e admitindo, finalmente, objectivos práticos e operativos que visam renovar e actualizar o significado jurídico-criminal desses mesmos comportamentos processualmente adquiridos com base num sistema de orientação valorativa.
