Sinopse: Neste estudo são apresentadas experiências consumadas no processo de implementação da Educação do Bem Viver em importante área de proteção ambiental do nordeste goiano, a APA de Pouso Alto. Dentre os seis municípios que compõem a APA de Pouso Alto, a cidade de Alto Paraíso de Goiás foi escolhida para sediar o Ipeartes, projeto pedagógico do Centro de Estudo e Pesquisa Ciranda Arte e da Secretaria de Educação do Estado de Goiás que tem como eixos fundantes a Arte/Educação e as Tecnologias Sustentáveis. O estudo, de abordagem etnológica, apresenta duas experiências consumadas no território: o Encontro Jovem de Alto Paraíso, primeiro evento realizado com o objetivo de discutir o tema “Construindo a Escola do Bem Viver”; e a Olimpíada de Humanidades, um projeto (inter-, trans-) disciplinar entre as áreas de arte e ciências humanas, o qual se configura como projeto de aprendizagem significativa na consumação de experiências transformadoras de caráter cognitivo-afetivas.
People venture into tourist activities to expand their worldviews and experiences, and as such, it is common for them to face realities totally different from those they are used to. Therefore, it is essential to discuss tourist experiences related to issues with discrimination and equality such as racism, inherent prejudice, gender equality, indigenous rights, and experiences of the LGBTQIA+ community to ensure the tourism industry is inclusive and safe. Promoting Social and Cultural Equity in the Tourism Sector provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest findings from empirical research on diversity and equity applied to tourism activity. The book also contributes to the discussion about the nuances inherent to tourism activities and experiences at tourist destinations. Covering a wide range of topics such as gender bias, employability, and diversity education, this reference work is crucial for hotel managers, activists, travel agencies, tour organizations, industry professionals, government officials, policymakers, researchers, scholars, practitioners, academicians, instructors, and students.
Erosive tooth wear is a multifactorial condition of growing concern to the clinician and the subject of extensive research. Since the publication of the first edition of the book with the title Dental Erosion, new knowledge for a better understanding of this important subject has been gathered. The new and more detailed insights resulted in this second, extended publication. It presents a broad spectrum of views, from the molecular level to behavioural aspects, as well as trends in society. In particular, the issues concerning chemical and biological factors as well as dental erosion in children are covered more extensively in this second edition. The first chapters include topics such as the definition, diagnosis, interaction, epidemiology and histopathology of tooth wear. Further, the aetiology of dental erosion, including nutritional and patient-related factors, and dental erosion in children are discussed. This book is a valuable and indispensable guide to better oral health and is highly recommended to faculty members, researchers, dental students, practitioners and other dental professionals.
Agent-Based Computational Demography (ABCD) aims at starting a new stream of research among social scientists whose interests lie in understanding demographic behaviour. The book takes a micro-demographic (agent-based) perspective and illustrates the potentialities of computer simulation as an aid in theory building. The chapters of the book, written by leading experts either in demography or in agent-based modelling, address several key questions. Why do we need agent-based computational demography? How can ABCD be applied to the study of migrations, family demography, and historical demography? What are the peculiarities of agent-based models as applied to the demography of human populations? ABCD is of interest to all scientists interested in studying demographic behaviour, as well as to computer scientists and modellers who are looking for a promising field of application.
Este livro, Xadrez a luz do sol: Direitos Humanos, Gênero e Etnia em discussão, na forma de coletânea, é uma obra densa, que aborda em profundidade temas instigantes e atuais explicitados no título e discutidos por especialistas de instituições, públicas e privadas, de Ensino Superior, de vários estados brasileiros, podendo trazer luz a muitos questionamentos. Constitui-se em um importante ponto de reflexão, um processo de sistematização e de produção de conhecimento, e busca aprofundar esse debate em curso na sociedade contemporânea e sua relação com a educação.

Individual susceptibility to disease (i.e., one’s own genetic background) is one of the three main components classically described in the etiology of dental caries. Hence, genes influence susceptibility to erosive tooth wear, dental development, and response to treatments and interventions. This publication is an up-to-date overview of individual susceptibility to dental caries, erosive tooth wear, and disturbances of dental development from different clinically relevant perspectives. One of the most recognized scientists in this field reports on recent research relating to human genetics – from general summaries to recommendations for daily clinical work and population-level interventi...
Writing is not just about conveying 'content' but also about the representation of self. (One of the reasons people find writing difficult is that they do not feel comfortable with the 'me' they are portraying in their writing. Academic writing in particular often poses a conflict of identity for students in higher education, because the 'self' which is inscribed in academic discourse feels alien to them.)The main claim of this book is that writing is an act of identity in which people align themselves with socio-culturally shaped subject positions, and thereby play their part in reproducing or challenging dominant practices and discourses, and the values, beliefs and interests which they em...
