Handbook of Latin American Studies, Vol. 61
"The one source that sets reference collections on Latin American studies apart from all other geographic areas of the world.... The Handbook has provided scholars interested in Latin America with a bibliographical source of a quality unavailable to scholars in most other branches of area studies." —Latin American Research Review Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 140 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year b...
Burned
Uncovering class divisions, racial conflicts, and tangled emotions, this gritty, shocking novel of suspense heralds the arrival of a major new talent. Henning Juul is a veteran investigative crime reporter in Oslo, Norway. A horrific fire killed his six-year-old son, cut scars across his face, and ended his marriage, and on his first day back at the job after the terrible tragedy a body is discovered in one of the city’s public parks. A beautiful female college student has been stoned to death and buried up to her neck, her body left bloody and exposed. The brutality of the crime shakes the whole country, but despite his own recent trauma – and the fact that his ex-wife’s new boyfriend is also on the case - Henning is given the assignment. When the victim’s boyfriend, a Pakistani native, is arrested, Henning feels certain the man is innocent. This was not simply a Middle Eastern-style honor killing in the face of adultery – it was a far more complicated gesture, and one that will drag Henning into a darkness he’s never dreamed of.
The Almond Tree Genome
This book brings together the latest information on almond genomics and transcriptomics, with a particular focus on cutting-edge findings, tools, and strategies employed in genome sequencing and analysis with regard to the most important agronomic traits. Cultivated almond [(Prunus dulcis (Miller) D. A. Webb, syn. Prunus amygdalus Batsch., Amygdalus communis L., Amygdalus dulcis Mill.)] is a tree crop producing seeds of great economic interest, and adapted to hot and dry climates. Domesticated in Southeast Asia, its small diploid genome and phenotypic diversity make it an ideal model to complement genomics studies on peach, generally considered to be the reference Prunus species. Both represent consanguineous species that evolved in two distinct environments: warmer and more humid in the case of peach, and colder and xerophytic for almond. The advent of affordable whole-genome sequencing, in combination with existing Prunus functional genomics data, has now made it possible to leverage the novel diversity found in almond, providing an unmatched resource for the genetic improvement of this species.
Bioinspired Systems for Translational Applications: From Robotics to Social Engineering
Zusammenfassung: The two volume set LNCS 14674 and 14675 constitutes the proceedings of the 10th International Work-Conference on the Interplay Between Natural and Artificial Computation, IWINAC 2024, which took place in Olhâo, Portugal, during June 4-7, 2024. The 99 full papers presented in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 193 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Machine learning in neuroscience; artificial intelligence in neurophysiology; neuromotor and cognitive disorders; intelligent systems for assessment, treatment, and assistance in early stages of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias; socio-cognitive, affective and physiological computing; affective computing and context awareness in ambientintelliigence; learning tools to lecture; Part II: Machine learning in computer vision and robotics; bio-inspired computing approaches; social and civil engineering through human AI translations; smart renewable energies: advancing AI algorithms in the renewable energy industry; bioinspired applications
Comunicación y desarrollo: pasos hacia la coherencia
Este libro responde a la propia naturaleza de la comunicación para el desarrollo, como un proceso que posibilita el conocimiento resultante de la suma de nuestras capacidades y facilita consensos inclusivos. Sólo si nos esforzamos en encontrarnos con los otros, conseguiremos hacer efectivas las distintas iniciativas del desarrollo. La comunicación está en el corazón de la cooperación para el desarrollo, por ello, pensar en una estrategia de comunicación española requiere reflexionar sobre el papel que ha de jugar la comunicación en la coordinación y la búsqueda de acuerdos, sobre todo teniendo en cuenta la riqueza de actores que la idiosincrasia de nuestra cooperación exhibe.

Campus de la Diagonal
Aquest llibre presenta una reflexió acadèmica i professional al Campus de la Diagonal amb un ampli ventall d’idees urbanístiques que permeten establir un nou escenari universitari i millorar la relació amb la ciutat..Durant els anys seixanta i setanta del segle passat es varen realitzar diversos projectes d’edificis i recintes universitaris de gran interès (de Carlo, Candilis, Sert). També es varen publicar notables estudis sobre la relació entre la ciutat i la universitat..Feia, però, força anys que aquestes qüestions no semblaven ocupar l’agenda d’arquitectes, urbanistes i responsables universitaris. Per això sembla tan oportú l’esforç de recollir en aquestes poc més de dues-centes planes tot un seguit de riques reflexions i de projectes, tant aquells que responen a encàrrecs concrets de la UB i de la UPC, com aquells que han realitzat un conjunt d’estudiants per recosir i fer ciutat d’una munió d’edificis, sovint de caràcter abstret i poc permeable, tallats per una avinguda de grans dimensions i disposats sense cap visió de conjunt.

14th International Conference on Soft Computing Models in Industrial and Environmental Applications (SOCO 2019)
This book includes 57 papers presented at the SOCO 2019 conference held in the historic city of Seville (Spain), in May 2019. Soft computing represents a set of computational techniques in machine learning, computer science and various engineering disciplines, which investigate, simulate, and analyze very complex issues and phenomena. The selection of papers was extremely rigorous in order to maintain the high quality of the conference, which featured a number of special sessions, including sessions on: Soft Computing Methods in Manufacturing and Management Systems; Soft Computing Applications in the Field of Industrial and Environmental Enterprises; Optimization, Modeling and Control by Soft Computing Techniques; and Soft Computing in Aerospace, Mechanical and Civil Engineering: New methods and Industrial Applications.
