Iluminações dos silêncios (Razões e paixões) A Terceira parte deste livro é fascinante. Aqui estão reunidos noventa sonetos, alguns premiados. Cada página é densa, requer atenção e cuidado se não quiser deixar passar tesouros em versos. É muito fôlego, disciplina e coragem do querido poeta. Diálogos com outros corpos humanos e não-humanos, sentimentos, emoções, paixões. A viagem pelos temas é emocionante: amor (completo, sonhado, eterno, perdido) em Roma, Portugal, Espanha, Bulgária, Minas Gerais, Recife; referências a Fernando Pessoa, Sá-Carneiro; intuição; medos; tempo; prazer; a natureza e criação (inauguração, disse o poeta) do homem. Porém a habilidade com ...
Seja com grandes efeitos visuais, colorido ou preto branco, pouco importa, numa mágica trilha sonora ou em uma história envolvente, é possível viajar para outros mundos inesperados, até para outros tempos, quando você entra numa sala de cinema e senta na poltrona com todas as expectativas. E o mundo do cinema tem essa capacidade de poder te encantar completamente, dos olhos ao coração. Muitas vezes até mesmo depois quando você atravessa a porta de saída do cinema, fica com a impressão que continua levando o filme na sua retina, pelo tanto que a película é capaz de tocá-lo e de te perseguir na memória e na emoção. É como se o filme não se desgrudasse mais de você. E a art...
Afinal, como enfrentar os problemas diários das diferenças familiares nas empresas? Esse é um grande desafio. Seguramente, os conflitos são parte essencial da vida de qualquer pessoa, sejam familiares ou não. Não há ambientes humanos sem conflitos e sem diferenças. Não existem relacionamentos sem confrontos. Não somos feitos de perfeições. Os conflitos destrutivos não só nos limitam em fronteiras estreitas como também dominam nossos sentimentos, e nos casos de extensão desses embates para o ambiente das empresas familiares eles podem promover comprometimentos nos destinos da própria organização. As relações humanas também nunca serão exatas e sem incômodos. Compreende...
The opportunity that tissue engineering provides for medicine is extraordinary. In the United States alone, over half-a-trillion dollars are spent each year to care for patients who suffer from tissue loss or dysfunction. Although numerous books and reviews have been written on tissue engineering, none has been as comprehensive in its defining of the field. Principles of Tissue Engineering combines in one volume the prerequisites for a general understanding of tissue growth and development, the tools and theoretical information needed to design tissues and organs, as well as a presentation of applications of tissue engineering to diseases affecting specific organ systems. The first edition o...

In Jurisdiction and Admissibility in Investment Arbitration, Filippo Fontanelli offers an analysis of the subject for practitioners and scholars. The author undertakes two converging studies: first, the practice of investment tribunals is surveyed to provide a representative overview of how jurisdiction and admissibility operate in arbitration proceedings. Second, these concepts are studied in the wider framework of public international law litigation, in the attempt to solve the definitional issues, or at least trace them back to their theoretical background. The analysis shows that the confusion prevailing in investment arbitration is largely a legacy of the comparable confusion that affects the notions of jurisdiction and admissibility in all kinds of dispute settlement under international law. Whilst the confusion is often irrelevant in the practice, some instances arise where it affects the outcome of the proceedings. The essay discusses some of these instances and recommends adopting a novel approach, which hinges on judicial discretion as the critical element of admissibility.
Machine learning (ML) is the fastest growing field in computer science, and Health Informatics (HI) is amongst the greatest application challenges, providing future benefits in improved medical diagnoses, disease analyses, and pharmaceutical development. However, successful ML for HI needs a concerted effort, fostering integrative research between experts ranging from diverse disciplines from data science to visualization. Tackling complex challenges needs both disciplinary excellence and cross-disciplinary networking without any boundaries. Following the HCI-KDD approach, in combining the best of two worlds, it is aimed to support human intelligence with machine intelligence. This state-of-the-art survey is an output of the international HCI-KDD expert network and features 22 carefully selected and peer-reviewed chapters on hot topics in machine learning for health informatics; they discuss open problems and future challenges in order to stimulate further research and international progress in this field.
In General Principles for Business and Human Rights in International Law Ludovica Chiussi Curzi offers an overview of the relevance of general principles of law in the multifaceted discourse on business and human rights. What are the implications of the state duty to protect human rights in good faith and to guarantee victims of corporate human rights violations access to justice? Can general principles of law, such as abuse of rights, due diligence, and estoppel provide a source of obligations for companies that is relevant to human rights protection? Has an autonomous principle on corporate liability developed in international law? These are the questions at the core of this monograph, which seeks the answers in the normative foundations of public international law.
