El libro que presentamos, una reedición actualizada y ampliada del que fue publicado en 2004, se estructura en tres grandes apartados. Después de la introducción de Fina Sanz, que conceptualiza el buentrato y el maltrato en todas sus dimensiones, en la primera parte se incluyen cuatro capítulos dirigidos a facilitar la comprensión del origen y finalidad de las múltiples violencias contra las mujeres, recuperando y visibilizando la trayectoria histórica y social de su desarrollo. Se expone cómo opera el sistema patriarcal, que a partir de la diferencia sexual, sustenta la inferioridad de las mujeres, fundamenta la desigualdad y crea jerarquías de los hombres sobre las mujeres, lo que...
The meat of wild species, referred to in this report as ‘wild meat’, is an essential source of protein and a generator of income for millions of forest-living communities in tropical and subtropical regions. However, unsustainable harvest rates currently
[ES] El objetivo general de esta investigación fue analizar la regulación y utilidad de las redes sociales virtuales como una herramienta de lucha contra la violencia de género. También es analizada la violencia denunciada y la producida en dichas redes, así como las características del agresor y de la víctima. Se estudiaron las leyes que regulan la red y 500 videos del YouTube separados por los tipos de violencia o postura ante la misma, seleccionando una muestra diversificada de relevancia, tanto en Portugal como en Brasil, por su impacto social y su importante repercusión: los siete videos seleccionados para un estudio minucioso por su carácter representativo generaron aproximada...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are increasingly appreciated as down-stream effectors of cellular damage and dysfunction under natural and anthropogenic stress scenarios in aquatic systems. This comprehensive volume describes oxidative stress phenomena in different climatic zones and groups of organisms, taking into account specific habitat conditions and how they affect susceptibility to ROS damage. A comprehensive and detailed methods section is included which supplies complete protocols for analyzing ROS production, oxidative damage, and antioxidant systems. Methods are also evaluated with respect to applicability and constraints for different types of research. The authors are all internationally recognized experts in particular fields of oxidative stress research. This comprehensive reference volume is essential for students, researchers, and technicians in the field of ROS research, and also contains information useful for veterinarians, environmental health professionals, and decision makers.

Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. Femicide, the killing of women and girls because of their gender, was until recently included in the category ‘homicide’, obscuring the special features of this social and gendered phenomenon. However, the majority of murders of women are perpetrated by men whom they know from family ties and are the result of intimate partner violence or so-called 'honour' killings. This book is the first one on femicide in Europe and presents the findings of a four-year project discussing various aspects of femicide. Written by leading international scholars with an interdiscplinary perspective, it looks at the prevention programmes and comparative quantitative and qualitative data collection, as well as the impact of culture. It proposes the establishment of a European Observatory on Femicide as a new direction for the future, showing the benefits of cross-national collaboration, united to prevent the murder of women and girls.
This edition details a collection of specific shotgun proteomics-based laboratory techniques and applications developed in leading laboratories and proteomics units worldwide. Chapters cover a broad range of topics covering, shotgun proteomics of extracellular vesicles and subcellular structures, shotgun proteomics in non-model organisms, clinical proteomics, food proteomics, analysis of post-translational modifications and protein complexes, and data processing and storage. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Shotgun Proteomics: Methods and Protocols aims to be an up-to-date guide for researchers seeking to understand the proteome of any given biological sample.
