Direito e Religião Anais do vi simpósio de filosofia da dignidade humana

A relevância da religião em estudos das humanidades sempre foi inquestionável. Entretanto, nas últimas décadas, este tema tem recebido especial destaque. Suas relações com o direito e, especialmente, com a dignidade humana, revelam férteis discussões e infindáveis polêmicas cujo enfrentamento se mostra inadiável diante dos desafios da sociedade contemporânea. Assim, o leitor encontrará nesta obra uma variedade de pequenos textos sobre o tema da religião, abordado por diferentes perspectivas e em franco diálogo com outras áreas de saber, em especial filosofia, política, direito e estética, resultantes das discussões empreendidas no VI Simpósio Internacional de Filosofia da Dignidade Humana, ocorrido em 2021, cujo tema foi “O Direito entre o Sagrado e o Profano”.

Inteligência Artificial no horizonte da Filosofia da Tecnologia

A chamada era tecnológica traz transformações profundas no modo como os humanos lidam com a atividade técnica, com os artefatos por ela hoje produzidos, impactando nossa existência em proporções da magnitude de uma verdadeira mutação civilizacional sem precedentes. Dentre elas, merece destaque a Inteligência Artificial, simulação computacional das nossas habilidades cognitivas. Denunciando os malefícios da antropomorfização irresponsável da IA hoje, objetivamos com este livro trazer contribuições à pesquisa desse fenômeno técnico, passando por sua fundamentação na Filosofia da Tecnologia e enfrentando os seus impactos no campo da Ética e do Direito. Detectamos que a m...

Discovery Of The Higgs Boson

The recent observation of the Higgs boson has been hailed as the scientific discovery of the century and led to the 2013 Nobel Prize in physics. This book describes the detailed science behind the decades-long search for this elusive particle at the Large Electron Positron Collider at CERN and at the Tevatron at Fermilab and its subsequent discovery and characterization at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Written by physicists who played leading roles in this epic search and discovery, this book is an authoritative and pedagogical exposition of the portrait of the Higgs boson that has emerged from a large number of experimental measurements. As the first of its kind, this book should be of interest to graduate students and researchers in particle physics.

  • Publisher: Springer

This essential volume comprehensively discusses redox-active therapeutics, focusing particularly on their molecular design, mechanistic, pharmacological and medicinal aspects. The first section of the book describes the basic aspects of the chemistry and biology of redox-active drugs and includes a brief overview of the redox-based pathways involved in cancer and the medical aspects of redox-active drugs, assuming little in the way of prior knowledge. Subsequent sections and chapters describe more specialized aspects of central nervous system injuries, neurodegenerative diseases, pain, radiation injury and radioprotection (such as of brain, lungs, head and neck and erectile function) and neg...

  • Publisher: Springer

This book aims at showing how big data sources and data analytics can play an important role in sustainable mobility. It is especially intended to provide academicians, researchers, practitioners and decision makers with a snapshot of methods that can be effectively used to improve urban mobility. The different chapters, which report on contributions presented at the 4th Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility, held on May 24-25, 2018, in Skiathos Island, Greece, cover different thematic areas, such as social networks and traveler behavior, applications of big data technologies in transportation and analytics, transport infrastructure and traffic management, transportation modeling, vehicle emissions and environmental impacts, public transport and demand responsive systems, intermodal interchanges, smart city logistics systems, data security and associated legal aspects. They show in particular how to apply big data in improving urban mobility, discuss important challenges in developing and implementing analytics methods and provide the reader with an up-to-date review of the most representative research on data management techniques for enabling sustainable urban mobility

The latest developments in photochemistry on solid surfaces, i.e. photochemistry in heterogeneous systems, including liquid crystallines, are brought together for the first time in a single volume. Distinguished photochemists from various fields have contributed to the book which covers a number of important applications: molecular photo-devices for super-memory, photochemical vapor deposition to produce thin-layered electronic semiconducting materials, sensitive optical media, the control of photochemical reactions pathways, etc. Photochemistry on solid surfaces is now a major field and this book which provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the subject will be of interest to a wide range of readers.

Fiscal Adjustments in OECD Countries

This paper studies how the composition of fiscal adjustments influences their likelihood of “success”, defined as a long lasting deficit reduction, and their macroeconomic consequences. We find that fiscal adjustments which rely primarily on spending cuts on transfers and the government wage bill have a better chance of being successful and are expansionary. On the contrary fiscal adjustments which rely primarily on tax increases and cuts in public investment tend not to last and are contractionary. We discuss alterative explanations for these findings by studying both a full sample of OECD countries and by focusing on three case studies: Denmark, Ireland and Italy.

Applied Population Biology

  • Publisher: Springer

An increasing variety of biological problems involving resource management, conservation and environmental quality have been dealt with using the principles of population biology (defined to include population dynamics, genetics and certain aspects of community ecology). There appears to be a mixed record of successes and failures and almost no critical synthesis or reviews that have attempted to discuss the reasons and ways in which population biology, with its remarkable theoretical as well as experimental advances, could find more useful application in agriculture, forestry, fishery, medicine and resource and environmental management. This book provides examples of state-of-the-art applications by a distinguished group of researchers in several fields. The diversity of topics richly illustrates the scientific and economic breadth of their discussions as well as epistemological and comparative analyses by the authors and editors. Several principles and common themes are emphasized and both strengths and potential sources of uncertainty in applications are discussed. This volume will hopefully stimulate new interdisciplinary avenues of problem-solving research.
