The olivo-cerebellar system
During the last decades, investigations on the olivo-cerebellar system have attained a high level of sophistication, which led to redefinitions of several structural and functional properties of neurons, synapses, connections and circuits. Research has expanded and deepened in so many directions and so many theories and models have been proposed that an ensemble review of the matter is now needed. Yet, hot topics remain open and scientific discussion is very lively at several fronts. One major question, here as well as in other major brain circuits, is how single neurons and synaptic properties emerge at the network level and contribute to behavioural regulation via neuronal plasticity. Othe...
Mulheres que cuidam
Deus é o bom-pastor! Profundo, delicado, corajoso e abrangente, o livro Mulheres que cuidam reúne mais de vinte mulheres para presentear o público com um compêndio acerca das dores e alegrias que estar em ministério provocam. Cada escritora convidada pela organizadora, Juliana Negri, se dedica ao serviço em tempo integral ou atua em outras áreas profissionais, o que torna esta obra repleta de ferramentas de cuidado para todas aquelas que vivenciam a jornada, seja por atuar ministerialmente, seja por acompanhar o marido ministro. Desenvolvido de forma bíblica, prática, pastoral e encorajadora, este livro foi concebido para que cada mulher em ministério se sinta acolhida no aprisco do Bom Pastor. A Parte I apresenta a história da atuação das mulheres bem como aquelas que se destacam na pós-modernidade em sua atividade. A Parte II, por sua vez, traça uma rota na direção do cuidado integral da mulher como ser biopsicossocial e espiritual. Já a Parte III visa equipar a mulher para o cuidado pessoal — com a alma e com o próximo.

Corals and Reefs
The health status and future of tropical coral reefs, as tourist destinations, are regularly subjected to media coverage. Many documentaries recognize the natural beauty and biological richness of the Australian Great Barrier Reef and French Polynesian lagoons, but point to the equally significant risk that would result from current global warming and human-made hazards. The future of coral reefs is usually a matter of death foretold, real or purely imaginary. In this context, it has become necessary to differentiate between what is falling within reality of scientific facts or fantasy. To this end, the present general review, in the expert translation of Charlotte Fontan aims at: (1) defini...
Motor Coordination
The focus of this volume differs from what is suggested by the series title, for it is on muscle contraction and movement rather than on behavior. The lone overnight flight of a ruby-throated hummingbird across the Gulf of Mexico is a migratory behavior mediated through an incredibly lengthy, repetitive series of wing move ments, each movement being produced by a complex sequence of muscle contrac tions. It is significant that these same movements may be used to mediate other behaviors, and that these same muscle contractions, in different sequence, may be used to produce other movements. The immense journey of white-bearded gnus across the Serengeti plains to suitable calving grounds is lik...
Handbook of Research on Bioenergy and Biomaterials
"The Handbook of Research on Bioenergy and Biomaterials: Consolidated and Green Processes provides an understanding of consolidated processing and biorefinery systems for the production of bio-based chemicals and value-added bioproducts from renewable sources. The chapters look at a variety of bioenergy technological advances and improvements in the energy and materials sectors that aim to lower our dependence of fossil fuels and consequently reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The volume looks at a selection of processes for the production of energy and biomaterials, including the Fischer-Tropsch process, gasification, pyrolysis, combustion, fermentation from renewable sources (such as, ...
