Presidential Primaries in Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico, like all the other US Territories, has a very limited participation in the process to elect the President. Both major parties have given Puerto Rico some delegates at their national convention. This book concentrates on the experience Puerto Rico has had on the nominating processes of both parties, particularly since 1980, when it began having presidential primaries. Unfortunately, once the primary season ends, Puerto Rico, like the rest of the territories, go back to be totally ignored by the presidential candidates. That's because the American citizens who live in Puerto Rico and the territories don't count at all in the general election. This unfair situation must change. The solution for this problem, in the case of Puerto Rico, is full admission into the union as a state. Puerto Rico has already voted twice in favor of becoming a state, in 2012 and 2017. It's time for Congress to act and grant the US citizens the political equality they have voted for.
ESSENTIAL MATHEMATICS, EXAMPLES AND EXERCISES
This book contains practical exercises and didactic examples, ranging from arithmetic to calculus, including fundamental themes of the algebra and analytic geometry. It is specialized in the teaching and learning of mathematics, in his book and essential levels arises from the problems detected in the knowledge of mathematics at different educational levels. With the skill and judgment of the teacher, the parent or student, this material can be a useful and valuable tool in the rapprochement and gradual mastery of relevant and be mesmerized field of mathematics. With math, everything; nothing without mathematics, it could be the human world he has created and developed the mathematical knowledge as a tool or a key device in the civilizing technological work motto. Mathematical knowledge is also a tool to challenge and intellectual growth, invaluable in the development of the most important brain cognitive abilities
The Revelation of Jesus Christ
This book, The Revelation of Jesus Christ, has been written on each chapter of the book of Revelation. Each chapter is written in plain English, giving the reader understanding of the symbols in the chapter and the book of Revelation. Each symbol in the book of Revelation can be found throughout the Scriptures, thus giving us the meaning and understanding of each one.

These same battles are taking place in many places today, but we will be able to understand that God has a people and has always had a people who will stand for truth and right. The book of Revelation is a misunderstood book and one often feared by many. But read with understanding, it can be blessing to God's people everywhere. This book, Revelation of Jesus Christ, was originally written and printed in Spanish. Because of the large demand, it has been translated into English.
Bárbaros
Two centuries after CortÉs and Pizarro seized the Aztec and Inca empires, Spain's conquest of America remained unfinished. Indians retained control over most of the lands in Spain's American empire. Mounted on horseback, savvy about European ways, and often possessing firearms, independent Indians continued to find new ways to resist subjugation by Spanish soldiers and conversion by Spanish missionaries. In this panoramic study, David J. Weber explains how late eighteenthcentury Spanish administrators tried to fashion a more enlightened policy toward the people they called bÁrbaros, or "savages." Even Spain's most powerful monarchs failed, however, to enforce a consistent, well-reasoned po...

An international team of specialists in classical scholarship and Mesoamerican studies engage in an interdisciplinary discussion involving ideas from history, anthropology, arch...
Jellyfish and Polyps
This Special Issue of Marine Drugs gathers recent investigations on the proteomes, metabolomes, transcriptomes, and the associated microbiomes of marine jellyfish and polyps, including bioactivity studies of their compounds and more generally, on their biotechnological potential, witnessing the increasingly recognized importance of Cnidaria as a largely untapped Blue Growth resource for new drug discovery. These researches evoke the outstanding ecological importance of cnidarians in marine ecosystems worldwide, calling for a global monitoring and conservation of marine biodiversity, so that the biotechnological exploitation of marine living resources will be carried out to conserve and sustainably use the natural capital of the oceans.
El Inca
Garcilaso de la Vega, the great chronicler of the Incas and the conquistadors, was born in Cuzco in 1539. At the age of twenty, he sailed to Spain to acquire an education, and he remained there until his death at Córdoba in 1616. As the natural son of a noble conquistador and an Indian woman of royal blood, he took immense pride in both his Spanish and Inca heritage, and, living as he did during a bewildering but stimulating epoch, he personally witnessed the last gasp of the dying Inca empire, the fratricidal conflicts that accompanied the Conquest, and the literary growth as well as the political decline of the Spain of Philip II and Philip III. Garcilaso left for posterity one of the ear...
The Cnidaria, Past, Present and Future
This volume presents a broad panorama of the current status of research of invertebrate animals considered belonging to the phylum Cnidaria, such as hydra, jellyfish, sea anemone, and coral. In this book the Cnidarians are traced from the Earth’s primordial oceans, to their response to the warming and acidifying oceans. Due to the role of corals in the carbon and calcium cycles, various aspects of cnidarian calcification are discussed. The relation of the Cnidaria with Mankind is approached, in accordance with the Editors’ philosophy of bridging the artificial schism between science, arts and Humanities. Cnidarians' encounters with humans result in a broad spectrum of medical emergencies that are reviewed. The final section of the volume is devoted to the role of Hydra and Medusa in mythology and art.
