La violencia ha sido un acontecimiento omnipresente en la historia humana y sigue estando presente en muchos de los escenarios en los que se desenvuelve la vida diaria de las personas. Uno de estos escenarios es el entorno laboral, y más concretamente, el entorno sanitario. Cuando hablamos de violencia en este entorno nos estamos refiriendo a acciones físicas o verbales intencionalmente dirigidas contra personas en el desempeño de su trabajo y que atentan contra su seguridad, su salud y su bienestar, poniendo al mismo tiempo en peligro el adecuado funcionamiento de la organización. En esta Tesis, hemos optado por un estudio y reflexión teórica en torno a la violencia que se comete en los entornos sanitarios contra los profesionales de la salud. Asimismo, se aborda uno de los problemas a los que se ha enfrentado la investigación contra la violencia de los profesionales de la salud, el de la metodología para su estudio.
La sociabilidad es una cualidad intrínseca del ser humano, y la interdependencia, la forma de relación social que ha permitido la supervivencia de nuestra especie. Depender de otros y, al mismo tiempo, ser responsable de ellos, requiere la intervención de mecanismos y procesos psicológicos, entre los que destacan la reacción automática de atracción o rechazo ante la percepción del otro y el conocimiento objetivo de esa persona a través de su conducta o de la información que transmiten los demás. Aquí intervienen otros muchos procesos (por ejemplo, la reputación, el etnocentrismo), regulados por factores cognitivos, emocionales y motivacionales. Aprovechar lo positivo y sacar par...
… Podríamos comenzar diciendo que este manual pretende dar una visión general de qué son y en qué consisten el extremismo, la radicalización violenta y el terrorismo. … Podríamos continuar señalando que aquí se presenta un exhaustivo análisis de la evolución histórica del terrorismo y de la investigación en el campo. … Podríamos también afirmar que el lector podrá encontrar aquí una descripción de todos los grupos terroristas que operan y que han operado a nivel nacional e internacional, los motivos que los han guiado (por ejemplo, la religión o sentimientos independentistas), o las consecuencias que han originado (como el número de víctimas, cambios socio-político...
From Prehistory to the Middle Ages, from the Spanish mainland to the Portuguese Atlantic Coast, the Duero (or Douro as it is known in English because of its Portuguese translation) has served as a river of great historical importance. It is a river flowing from the past into the future with the legacy of the Homo Antecessor and the most ancient remains of European Prehistory, showcasing the first samples of inland farming during the Iberian Neolithic period and many examples of Schematic Rock Art. Before the total obliteration of archaeological sites in the Duero valley due to active agricultural labours and the course of time itself, the Archaeological and Protohistoric Society of Zamora, Z...
This special volume of Advances in Marine Biology covers in detail the biology of calanoid copepods. Copepods are probably the most numerous multicellular organisms on earth. They are aquatic animals that live in both marine and fresh water, and are of prime importance in marine ecosystems as they form a direct link between phytoplankton and fish. This volume is essential for all marine biologists.Advances in Marine Biology contains up-to-date reviews of all areas of marine science, including fisheries science and macro/micro fauna. Each volume contains peer-reviewed papers detailing the ecology of marine regions.

Mutualistic interactions among plants and animals have played a paramount role in shaping biodiversity. Yet the majority of studies on mutualistic interactions have involved only a few species, as opposed to broader mutual connections between communities of organisms. Mutualistic Networks is the first book to comprehensively explore this burgeoning field. Integrating different approaches, from the statistical description of network structures to the development of new analytical frameworks, Jordi Bascompte and Pedro Jordano describe the architecture of these mutualistic networks and show their importance for the robustness of biodiversity and the coevolutionary process. Making a case for why we should care about mutualisms and their complex networks, this book offers a new perspective on the study and synthesis of this growing area for ecologists and evolutionary biologists. It will serve as the standard reference for all future work on mutualistic interactions in biological communities.
Violence at work, ranging from bullying and mobbing, to threats by psychologically unstable co-workers, sexual harassment and homicide, is increasing worldwide and has reached epidemic levels in some countries. This updated and revised edition looks at the full range of aggressive acts, offers new information on their occurrence and identifies occupations and situations at particular risk. It is organised in three sections: understanding violence at work; responding to violence at work; future action.
"This is a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the fields of Industrial and Organizational Psychology, Human Resources, Health Psychology, Public Health, and Employee Assistance Programs. It is also an excellent textbook for graduate courses in Organizational Behavior, Occupational Health Psychology, and Organizational Psychology."--
Upwelling systems are special places in the oceans where nutrient-enriched water is brought into the euphotic zone to fuel phytoplankton blooms that, via marine food-web interactions, create the world’s richest fish resources. This book introduces the reader to the interdisciplinary science of upwelling and provides a comprehensive overview of the world’s most productive marine ecosystems in the context of climate variability, climate change and human exploitation. This material presented is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate study or just for anyone interested to learn about the creation of life in the oceans and how this is compromised by human activities.
