The United States and the Transatlantic Slave Trade to the Americas, 1776-1867
An investigation of US participation in the transatlantic slave trade to the Americas, from the American Revolution to the Civil War While much of modern scholarship has focused on the American slave trade’s impact within the United States, considerably less has addressed its effects in other parts of the Americas. A rich analysis of a complex subject, this study draws on Portuguese, Brazilian, and Spanish primary documents—as well as English-language material—to shed new light on the changing behavior of slave traders and their networks, particularly in Brazil and Cuba. Slavery in these nations, as Marques shows, contributed to the mounting tensions that would ultimately lead to the U.S. Civil War. Taking a truly Atlantic perspective, Marques outlines the multiple forms of U.S. involvement in this traffic amid various legislation and shifting international relations, exploring the global processes that shaped the history of this participation.

Benzodiazepine Dependence, Toxicity, and Abuse
In recent years, patients, lay publications, and consumer groups have expressed concern about whether benzodiazepines are overprescribed. Psychiatrists have raised questions about the potential for these medications -- especially some of the newer, high-potency, short half-life compounds -- to produce serious side effects as well as to induce drug dependence. Benzodiazepine Dependence, Toxicity, and Abuse provides clinicians with a review of the available information on the potential hazards of benzodiazepine treatment and offers suggestions for the rational prescription of these medications.

95 a tua estrela brilha
Você se lembra de sua primeira reação ao ouvir o apito final daquela dramática partida entre Botafogo e Santos, no já distante dia 17 de dezembro de 1995? Provavelmente sim, momentos assim marcam a vida da gente. E esse momento, em especial, foi extremamente marcante para quem carrega a Estrela Solitária no coração. Este livro, nascido do desejo de homenagear os responsáveis por aquela conquista, é um tributo aos campeões, ao time que, como talvez nenhum outro que já vestiu o manto alvinegro, superou enormes adversidades para chegar ao triunfo final. O livro traz o prefácio assinado por Túlio Maravilha, reúne relatos gloriosos de botafoguenses ilustres, de jornalistas que acompanharam o dia a dia daquele grupo e de gente que, naquela época, nem sonhava com o que seria quando crescesse, pessoas que, no entanto, já sabiam o que eram: botafoguenses de coração. Nosso objetivo é que você, leitor, viaje no tempo e volte a se emocionar!
