O Grupo Temático de Saúde Bucal Coletiva da Associação Brasileira de Saúde Coletiva ̶ GT SBC ABRASCO, foi criado no ano de 2007 e atua na defesa da saúde bucal como um direito da população brasileira. Esse livro foi produzido em um esforço colaborativo dos quarenta e três membros getistas diante da dura realidade que a Covid-19 apresenta e o cenário político alimenta tragicamente. Com a pandemia, os espaços virtuais de discussão ̶ as chamadas “lives” ̶ assumiram um papel importante para a interconectividade, a criação de diálogos, o compartilhamento de conhecimento científico, ideias, experiências, geografias, opiniões e saberes. Nesse contexto, o GT SBC protagonizou parcerias com pesquisadores, estudantes e profissionais de saúde, que resultaram nas discussões compiladas neste e-Book.
Ao longo dos estudos apresentados aqui, poderemos acompanhar, de maneira didática, as ações de uma rede de atores que buscou soluções práticas para continuar pesquisando em caráter de urgência e, com isso, levar segurança aos profissionais da saúde e à comunidade por eles atendida. O livro, portanto, serve como reflexão sobre as várias frentes acionadas pelos pesquisadores e pelas pesquisadoras no sentido de construir protocolos de biossegurança para a Odontologia. Vale destacar que isso foi feito seguindo princípios que viabilizassem a pesquisa e a ação imediata. É uma pesquisa que ultrapassa as fronteiras do Brasil, contemplando também a realidade da Argentina, em um movimento fundamental de internacionalização das pesquisas que não ficou restrito ao ambiente universitário, buscando outras instituições, incluindo equipes de comunicação, para a efetividade da proposta.
An unprecedented look at the wide-ranging artistic work of one of the 20th century's most significant landscape architects The modernist parks and gardens of Brazilian landscape architect and garden designer Roberto Burle Marx (1909-1994) earned him awards, widespread acclaim, and international fame. Over a 60-year career, he designed more than 2,000 gardens worldwide, the most famous of which are those he created in collaboration with the architect Oscar Niemeyer for Brasília. Although he is best known for his landscape work, Burle Marx was a prolific artist in a variety of media, and his larger body of work--which includes paintings, drawings, tile mosaics, sculpture, textile design, jewe...
TRAUMATIC DENTAL INJURIES: A MANUAL The third edition of Traumatic Dental Injuries: A Manual builds on the widespread success of the previous two editions. The ultimate guide to dental trauma, the manual preserves its uniquely usable and reader-friendly format, demonstrating step-by-step treatment protocols for commonly occurring traumatic injuries. Several new sections have been added to expand the number of clinical scenarios, describing soft tissue injuries associated with dental trauma, showing how decoronation of ankylosed anterior teeth in adolescents can preserve the alveolar process for later implant placement, and identifying predictors for pulpal and periodontal ligament healing co...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th EPIA Conference on Artificial Intelligence, EPIA 2021, held virtually in September 2021. The 62 full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 108 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: artificial intelligence and IoT in agriculture; artificial intelligence and law; artificial intelligence in medicine; artificial intelligence in power and energy systems; artificial intelligence in transportation systems; artificial life and evolutionary algorithms; ambient intelligence and affective environments; general AI; intelligent robotics; knowledge discovery and business intelligence; multi-agent systems: theory and applications; and text mining and applications.
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
This volume showcases new research on the global reach of Latin American revolutionary movements during the height of the Cold War, mapping out the region’s little-known connections with Africa, Asia, and Europe.

The Nuclear Club reveals how a coalition of powerful and developing states embraced global governance in hopes of a bright and peaceful tomorrow. While fears of nuclear war were ever-present, it was the perceived threat to their preeminence that drove Washington, Moscow, and London to throw their weight behind the 1963 Limited Test Ban Treaty (LTBT) banishing nuclear testing underground, the 1967 Treaty of Tlatelolco banning atomic armaments from Latin America, and the 1968 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) forbidding more countries from joining the most exclusive club on Earth. International society, the Cold War, and the imperial U.S. presidency were reformed from 1945 to 1970, when a global nuclear order was inaugurated, averting conflict in the industrial North and yielding what George Orwell styled a "peace that is no peace" everywhere else. Today the nuclear order legitimizes foreign intervention worldwide, empowering the nuclear club and, above all, the United States, to push sanctions and even preventive war against atomic outlaws, all in humanity's name.
