En el último tiempo, los debates respecto del ambiente, el desarrollo y la soberanía tomaron parte de la agenda pública. Si unx recorre los casos donde "la naturaleza" es la protagonista, la única idea que sobrevive es que "las personas estamos destruyendo el planeta". Frente a esta simplificación, nos parece oportuno acercar una caracterización y un análisis crítico de las distintas corrientes y miradas que participan del debate, o como dice Juan Ramón Quintana en su prólogo: "una exégesis oportuna, necesaria y a su vez brillante sobre las sinuosas y cada vez más laberínticas teorías o posturas políticas que los expertos han decidido adoptar en sus debates sobre medio ambiente y desarrollo, o que en clave más amplia puede traducirse como la dialéctica entre cultura y naturaleza". Este texto es una propuesta para sistematizar en esos debates y aportar a la construcción de una perspectiva emancipadora, que tenga en cuenta que en la actualidad la naturaleza es un campo de disputa.

Both current theory and practice in financial markets are undergoing a strong pressure to include recently developed fields of inquiry, namely market microstructure, transaction costs and asymmetric information. This claim has been taking shape after nearly thirty years of worthy research and empirical development that laid sound groundwork to those promising subjects. The purpose of this book is to introduce a new approach to work out the returns from financial assets. Firstly, by means of the concept of differential rates, which allow the breaking down of the ordinary rate of return into components that are rates on their own. Secondly, residual information sets are built up to match each differential rate with its underlying information.

This book focuses on the internal fixation of long bones by using intramedullary locked nails in a closed technique. Intramedullary fixation fulfils the biological requirements for fracture healing and minimises surgical trauma. The text illustrates the use and relevance of this technique in orthopaedic and trauma surgery including reconstructive surgery, covering the basic scientific principles of reaming and locking as well as basic and advanced surgical techniques. Prevention of complications and complication management are also discussed in detail, making it an ideal text for those with an interest in the proper use the techniques described.

Advances in Lipid Research, Volume 21 covers several significant and emerging areas in lipid metabolism, including apolipoprotein metabolism and leukotrienes. This book discusses the role of fat in the functioning of the immune system. Organized into eight chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the metabolism of apolipoprotein B, which is the principal protein of chylomicrons, very low density, and low density lipoprotein. This text then describes the metabolism, biosynthesis, and pharmacology of leukotrienes. Other chapters consider the relation of lipids to immunology and explain the roles played by lipids in the structure and function of yeast membrane. This book discusses as well the general importance in the plant kingdom and the place of some carotenoids in human biology. The final chapter deals with the influence of proteins on configuration and function of reconstituted lipid membranes. This book is a valuable resource for biologists, chemists, biochemists, scientists, and research workers.
