En esta obra, los cuerpos se hacen palabra para entrar en conversación con otros cuerpos. En él, celebramos y compartimos la decisión de componer textos académicos e investigativos que aportan a la producción y a la creación de conocimientos en el campo de los estudios culturales en conexión con los lenguajes artísticos contemporáneos. A propósito, Eduardo Pellejero dice que, "ningún método puede conducirnos de manera clara y distinta al corazón de su enigma, ni a la multiplicidad de su potencia. Solo la experiencia —quiero decir, la experimentación— podrá develar a quienes se atrevan a llevarla hasta sus límites, la dimensión, el alcance y las figuras de las que el cuer...
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.

This book presents the proceedings of one of the major conferences in fatigue, fracture and structural integrity (NT2F). The papers are organized and divided in five different themes: fatigue and fracture mechanics of structures and advanced materials; fatigue and fracture in pressure vessels and pipelines: mechanical behavior and structural integrity of welded, bonded and bolted joints; residual stress and environmental effects on the fatigue behavior; and simulation methods, analytical and computation models in fatigue and fracture.

This magisterial volume unveils Richard and Shirley Flint’s deep research into the Latin American and Spanish archives in an effort to track down the history of the participants who came north with the Coronado expedition in 1540. Through their investigation into thousands of legal cases, financial records, proofs of service, letters, journals, and other primary materials, they provide social and cultural documentation on the backgrounds of hundreds of individuals who made up the Coronado expedition and show that the expedition was the first phase of a three-phase effort to complete the Columbian project: to delineate a westward route to Asia from Spain.
