En el momento actual del desarrollo nanotecnológico, una vez que la nanotecnología es una realidad presente y los nanomateriales y nanodispositivos han comenzado a fabricarse en grandes cantidades y se comercializan globalmente incorporados en todo tipo de bienes y productos, se hace más necesaria que nunca una reflexión en profundidad y holística que trate la repercusión ética y social derivada del cada vez más amplio despliegue de las nanotecnologías. Para tal objetivo, a través de las voces de diversas personas expertas en cada una de las principales áreas implicadas en el desarrollo nanotecnológico, este libro emprende un intento de síntesis de su impacto específico, identificando las principales problemáticas y retos. Así, a partir de análisis rigurosos y argumentos sólidos, la intención principal de esta obra es la de promover y propiciar un diálogo informado y abierto a todos los ámbitos y actores implicados. Esta obra completa el catálogo de Thomson-Reuters Aranzadi.

This volume provides relevant insights into medieval political legitimation, and its impact on political competition and notions of power. With a main focus on medieval Castile, the political discourses purporting to legitimate practices of power are discussed, both as pieces of textual material and in their wider historical context.
"This is a little jewel of a book. Beautifully and elegantly written, it examines the political career of an important figure at the court of Philip II of Spain. It is political biography in the best sense of the term."--Richard Kagan, author of Lucrecia's Dreams
“This collection, because of its exceptional theoretical coherence and sophistication, is qualitatively superior to the most frequently consulted anthologies on Latin American women’s history and literature . . . [and] represents a new, more theoretically rigorous stage in the feminist debate on Latin American women.”—Elizabeth Garrels, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
This is an incredible history focusing on the role of Tomás de Torquemada in the Spanish inquisition. Torquemada was a Castilian Dominican friar and the first Grand Inquisitor in Spain's movement to standardize religious conventions with those of the Catholic Church in the late 15th century. In 1483, Ferdinand and Isabella appointed a state council to administer the inquisition with Torquemada acting as its head and he ultimately acquired the title of Inquisitor-General. The accounts presented in this work are raw but factual and solid. Sabatini debunks some popular misconceptions about the inquisition and gives his own views on the time's prominent political and religious figures. This history is illustrated with trials and examples of Torquemada and the Holy Office at work. It is well-written and often surprising in its revelations.

In The Complexity of Hispanic Religious Life in the 16th–18th Centuries, Doris Moreno has assembled a team of leading scholars to discuss and analyze the diversity of Hispanic religious and cultural life in the Early Modern Age. Using primary sources to look beyond the Spanish Black Legend and present new perspectives, this book explores the realities of a changing and plural Catholicism through the lens of crucial topics such as the Society of Jesus, the Inquisition, the Martyrdom, the feminine visions and conversion medicine. This volume will be an essential resource to all those with an interest in the knowledge of multiple expressions of tolerance and cultural dialectic between Spain and the Americas.
