A presente obra busca trazer ao debate público a relação mais que necessária entre gênero e políticas públicas, a partir da escolha de temas atuais de interesse para a discussão social e acadêmica, tendo em vista que, historicamente, a desigualdade de gênero tem afetado as mulheres em diferentes áreas da vida.
Resultado do esforço conjunto de diversos especialistas do tema, articulados pela Plataforma DhESC Brasil, no âmbito de sua atuação internacional. Tem a finalidade de chamar a atenção da sociedade, do governo brasileiro e da comunidade internacional, para a situação crônica da pobreza no país, ao mesmo tempo em que adverte a comunidade internacional para a situação da alimentação e da moradia no Brasil. Apresenta casos de violação aos direitos humanos e aponta diversas recomendações de como superar o problema da pobreza no Brasil.
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.
Encapsulation of bioactives is a fast-growing approach in the food and pharmaceutical industry. Spray Drying Encapsulation of Bioactive Materials serves as a source of information to offer specialized and in-depth knowledge on the most well-known and used encapsulation technology (i.e., spray drying) and corresponding advances. It describes the efficacy of spray drying in terms of its advantages and challenges for encapsulation of bioactive ingredients. Discusses the potential of this technique to pave the way toward cost-effective, industrially relevant, reproducible, and scalable processes that are critical to the development of delivery systems for bioactive incorporation into innovative ...
O livro é uma produção organizada pelo Grupo de Pesquisa Avaliação, Reabilitação e Intervenção Humano-Animal (ARIHA) do Programa de Pós-graduação em Psicologia da Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS), coordenado pela Professora Doutora Tatiana Quarti Irigaray. Dezessete capítulos abordam a avaliação psicológica no contexto da oncologia, da pesquisa científica, de concursos públicos, de altas habilidades, da dependência química e em relação ao ensino e à supervisão em avaliação psicológica. Outros tratam do assunto voltado à produção de documentos psicológicos, à espiritualidade e à tecnologia. As organizadoras desta obra não pretendem esgotar o tema da avaliação psicológica, mas sim ampliar seus horizontes, discutindo sua aplicação e seus aspectos éticos e dinâmicos nos diferentes contextos desse vasto campo de atuação.
This review book is concerned with the synthesis, charge transport properties and practical applications of poly (o-aminophenol) (POAP) film electrodes. It is divided into three parts. The first one has a particular emphasis on problems of synthesis and structure of POAP. The second part deals with the mechanism of charge transfer and charge transport processes occurring in the course of the redox reactions of POAP. The third part describes the promising applications of POAP in the different fields of sensors, electrocatalysis, bioelectrochemistry, corrosion protection, among others. This review covers the literature on POAP in the time period comprised between 1987 and 2013.
Political parties have long been recognized as essential institutions of democratic governance. Both the organization of parties, and their relationships with citizens, the state, and each other have evolved since the rise of liberal democracy in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Going into the 21st century, it appears that parties losing popular support, putting both parties, and potentially democracy, in peril. This book traces the evolution of parties from the model of the mass party, through the catch-all party model, to argue that by the late 20th century the principal governing parties and (and their allied smaller parties - collectively the political 'mainstream') were effectively fo...
This volume highlights important links existing between soils and human health which up to now are not fully realized by the public. Soil materials may have deleterious, beneficial or no impacts on human health; therefore, understanding the complex relationships between diverse soil materials and human health will encourage creative cooperation between soil and environmental sciences and medicine. The topics covered in this book will be of immense value to a wide range of readers, including soil scientists, medical scientists and practitioners, nursing scientists and staff, toxicologists, ecologists, agronomists, geologists, geochemists, public health professionals, planners and several others.
