Psicología. Introducción al estudio del comportamiento humano.
La psicología (humana) se ha definido canónicamente como la ciencia que estudia el comportamiento (humano); pero antes de que la Psicología se definiera así, ya existía, desde muy antiguo, el interés por el comportamiento humano, aunque no se plasmara en un «corpus» de conocimiento psicológico, y, desde luego, no científico tal como lo concebidos hoy. Podemos recorrer en parte ese interés recurriendo a la historia de esas palabras «conducta» y «comportamiento». Es una manera de hacer que nos enseña Skinner, sobre todo en su artículo «The originis of cognitive thought» (Skinner, 1989; 1991), en el que escribe que la «etimología es la arqueología del pensamiento», y que ...
Cuestiones básicas en gerontología
Los cuidados gerontológicos representan uno de los ámbitos profesionales de mayor interés para los estudiantes de ciencias socio-sanitarias, siendo la práctica profesional en gerontología la intervención del/ de la gerontólogo/a para el fomento del envejecimiento saludable y la mejora de la calidad de vida de las personas a medida que envejecen. Este libro recopila el material teórico de diversas asignaturas del Máster oficial en Gerontología y Salud, por lo que es un instrumento básico para que el estudiante realice con aprovechamiento esta formación especializada en el ámbito de la gerontología y la salud.
Teoria do delito
A obra apresenta a análise de um dos temas de maior relevância para o direito penal, o que determina a existência de extensão e pesquisa, a fim de compreender seus fundamentos teóricos e empíricos. Sua importância radica na necessidade de dimensionar, analiticamente, os fatos humanos que possam ter consequências penais. Este destaque à teoria do delito surge em vista de que o direito penal lida com um dos bens mais preciosos do ser humano, a liberdade. É pela teoria do delito que se pode buscar justiça, analisando os fatos e tratando todas as pessoas equanimemente, pois, ao se examinar, analiticamente, uma ação humana, se torna possível verificar a existência de um crime, a ap...

Virtual Reality and the Criminal Justice System
Virtual Reality (VR) is becoming a popular technology for gaming and entertainment; however, researchers and scientists have used the technology for decades to develop real world solutions. The criminal justice system has used VR primarily for weapons training and forensic investigation but its uses are expanding. This book discusses how the technology can be used for correctional rehabilitation. Specifically, the book explores how cognitive behavior therapy, a widely used therapeutic technique used to treat offenders, can be improved using VR. Offenders can learn new skills, role play, and practice what they’ve learned in a safe, controlled environment that mimics situations they may find when back in the community. Additionally, those without access to services can use the technology to attend virtual groups offered by trained facilitators no matter where they live. With current limitations on resources, VR can offer criminal justice practitioners another option for offender rehabilitation.

Post-harvest Pathology
As a collection of papers that includes material presented at the 2008 International Congress for Plant Pathology, this text features research right at the leading edge of the field. The latest findings are particularly crucial in their implications for fruit production; an important market sector where in some areas up to 50 per cent of the crop can be lost after harvest. While post-harvest fruit treatments with fungicides are the most effective means to reduce decay, rising concerns about toxicity have led to the development of alternative approaches to disease control, including biological methods, the subject of three chapters of this book. With several new techniques requiring modificat...
Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation
Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) is being rapidly introduced into the clinical management of early breast cancer. APBI, in fact, encompasses a number of different techniques and approaches that include brachytherapy, intraoperative, and external beam techniques. There is currently no single source that describes these techniques and their clinical implementation. This text is a concise handbook designed to assist the clinician in the implementation of APBI. This includes a review of the principles that underlie APBI, a practical and detailed description of each technique for APBI, a review of current clinical results of APBI, and a review of the incidence and management of treatment related complications.
Adaptive Radiation Therapy
Modern medical imaging and radiation therapy technologies are so complex and computer driven that it is difficult for physicians and technologists to know exactly what is happening at the point-of-care. Medical physicists responsible for filling this gap in knowledge must stay abreast of the latest advances at the intersection of medical imaging an
