Os muitos avanços tecnológicos podem estimular a ideia de que muitos instrumentos seculares utilizados pela sociedade já não são mais valorosos. No entanto, a autora busca se afastar da euforia dos entusiastas tecnológicos para produzir uma análise profunda e serena das implicações jurídicas da tecnologia blockchain e da tokenização para o Registro Imobiliário brasileiro, a partir de uma investigação da função e desenvolvimento do Registro de Imóveis ao longo do tempo, bem como do funcionamento da tecnologia blockchain e seus principais instrumentos, até se chegar às interseções entre os temas. A obra traz, ainda, uma rica contribuição de Direito Comparado quando da análise da aplicação da tecnologia em outros países e lança também um olhar para o problema da exclusão digital.
Poetry. In DEMOCRACY IS NOT FOR THE PEOPLE, Josef Kaplan takes up extreme forms of political speech and other "heterogeneous" discourses of the present to address the culture of advanced capitalism in the voice of its own transcendent violence. Assassination threats, the farewell letters of political suicides by self-immolation, pulp science fiction, journalistic accounts of Palestinian bombings, origami instructions, bland reports on the controversies surrounding autonomous robotic weapons systems in DINFTP, these and other unassimilable elements become the sources for a series of errant, self-winding mashups that can neither be rejected outright, because of their powerfully sculpted quality, nor fully absorbed as artistic work."
Vascular surgery has experienced remarkable growth and diversification in the last decade, especially with its embracing the disruptive endovascular technological revolution. Vascular surgeons remain the only group of specialists capable of total treatment of patients with vascular disease, providing medical, minimally invasive, and surgical therapy. Although vascular surgeons practice in all areas of the world, practice patterns in different areas naturally have both similarities and differences that reflect both regional patterns of disease, genetic characteristics of local peoples, cultural preferences for treatment, local political and economic situations, different access to resources a...
At the dawn of structural crystallography, Friedrich, Knipping and von Laue carried out the first experiments and developed the theory of X-ray diffraction. From these early days, structural crystallography evolved at its own pace and found new partners in chemistry, physics, materials science, biology and other fields of physical sciences. Both morphological and structural crystallography, however, have remained as important instruments in the mineralogist's toolbox until today. Efforts to enhance the existing instrumentation, to improve our understanding of the theory of diffraction, to study nanoparticulate or poorly ordered materials, and to master large, complex structures continue in all fields of physical sciences. Mineralogy can thus use the fruits of this labour and include them in its toolbox.
This book offers a counterpart to the extensive corpus of literature available on the same topic from a Western perspective. It showcases innovative approaches to professional development of mathematics teachers in Asian countries, and reports on both empirical and expository studies of teachers’ professional development in these counties. It provides scholars from non-English-speaking and under-represented Asian countries the opportunity to engage in discourse with other scholars in the field, and is the first book to present substantial contributions from scholars in Asia on the professional development of mathematics teachers in their respective countries. It includes perspectives that shed valuable light on how the approaches pursued in Asian countries resemble or differ from those in the West.
The tenth edition of the four-yearly review of mathematics education research in Australasia, compiled by the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia (MERGA), critically reviews research in mathematics education in the four years from 2016 to 2019. Its goals are to provide a reference guide for researchers, and to promote further quality research in Australasia.
"In this important book, Edy Greenblatt shows us the way to achieve a higher quality of life and how to eliminate so many of the stressors that plague and tire us - especially the self imposed ones." -Bronwyn Fryer, Senior Editor, Harvard Business Review "This inspiring book translates years of thoughtful social scientific research into actionable strategies for bringing positive energy back into our work and lives. Restore Yourself not only advances the argument that restoration is critical to both productivity and happiness, it shows us HOW to find that energy and then capitalize on it every day." -Monica C. Higgins, Associate Professor, Harvard Graduate School of Education, and author, Career Imprints: Creating Leaders Across an Industry .."astonishingly timely, useful and important. Please read it before you die because it may add a few years to your life." -Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business, University of Southern California and best selling author of Leaders, An Invented Life and On Becoming a Leader.
The wide availability of digital educational resources for mathematics teaching and learning is indisputable, with some notable genres of technologies having evolved, such as graphing calculators, dynamic graphing, dynamic geometry and data visualization tools. But what does this mean for teachers of mathematics, and how do their roles evolve within this digital landscape? This essential book offers an international perspective to help bridge theory and practice, including coverage of networking theories, curriculum design, task implementation, online resources and assessment. Mathematics Education in the Digital Age details the impacts this digital age has, and will continue to have, on the...

This book focusses on the theory and application of ‘time perspective theory’. Time perspective can be an important factor in determining psychological well-being and the way we see our world and others around us. The unique contemporary nature of this theory’s evolution has spurred great interest over the last 20 years. The editors responded to this interest by bringing together contributors across a multitude of subjects and perspectives to facilitate an unprecedented discussion on the topic; covering areas such as financial health, psychotherapy across adulthood and old age, prenatal past, metacognition, community and change, fear of crime and intrinsic motivations. The interdisciplinary nature of this project makes it of interest to a wide cross-section of academics and practitioners including psychologist, social workers, criminologists and anyone who has or wishes to adopted time perspective theorization to assist them in their understanding.
