The Great Inka Road
This compelling collection of essays explores the Qhapaq nan (or Great Inca Road), an extensive network of trails reaching modern-day Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. These roads and the accompanying agricultural terraces and structures that have survived for more than six centuries are a testament to the advanced engineering and construction skills of the Inca people. The Qhapaq nan also spurred an important process of ecological and community integration across the Andean region. This book, the companion volume to a National Museum of the American Indian exhibition of the same name, features essays on six main themes: the ancestors of the Inca, Cusco as the center of the empire, road engineering, road transportation and integration, the road in the Colonial era, and the road today. Beautifully designed and featuring more than 225 full-color illustrations, The Great Inka Road is a fascinating look at this enduring symbol of the Andean peoples' strength and adaptability.

The International Handbook of Creativity
What constitutes a creative person? Is it someone who can perform many tasks innovatively? Is it someone who exhibits creative genius in one area? Is it someone who utilizes her creativity for good and moral causes? Is it someone who uses his creativity to help his company or country succeed? Different cultures have different perspectives on what it means to be creative, yet it is nearly always the American or Western perspective that is represented in the psychological literature. The goal of The International Handbook of Creativity is to present a truly international and diverse set of perspectives on the psychology of human creativity. Distinguished scholars from around the world have written chapters for this book about the history and current state of creativity research and theory in their respective parts of the world. The 2006 book presents a wide array of international perspectives and research.

Braga ans its territory between the fifth and the fifteenth centuries
Este trabajo trata de dar una visión multidisciplinar y multifocal de una realidad llena de contrastes. El proceso de cambio que experimenta la ciudad de Braga desde su fundación romana hasta los momentos finales del siglo XV, resulta de gran interés para los investigadores del mundo urbano, ya sea desde una perspectiva arqueológica, documental o, lo que es preferible, desde aquella que combina ambos enfoques. Asimismo, aunque este estudio se centra exclusivamente en el caso bracarense, pretende ofrecer, a su vez, perspectivas nuevas que puedan ser aplicadas a otros ejemplos urbanos.
