Individualidade Biológica
Este livro apresenta quatro partes principais: na primeira, após uma introdução e um capítulo versando sobre a individualidade biológica e exercício, serão abordadas as qualidades físicas principais (Força, Velocidade, Coordenação Motora, Agilidade, Flexibilidade, Resistência). Na segunda parte, os autores convidados se debruçam sobre as modalidades esportivas (Futebol, Futsal, Vôlei, Golfe e Atletismo). Obviamente, em função da sólida responsabilidade científica dos organizadores da obra, apenas foram incluídos os esportes e as qualidades físicas sobre as quais já houvesse publicações científicas, que lhes associassem à dermatoglifia. Na terceira parte do livro, os capítulos versam sobre os distintos campos de utilização da dermatoglifia: a detecção dos talentos esportivos; a preparação física de atletas e a prescrição de exercício, todos também, apresentado o assunto com as devidas interfaces com a dermatoglifia. Por fim, os últimos elementos da publicação tratam do leitor dermatoglífico e dos laudos, fechando com êxito tão importante contribuição para as ciências brasileira e mundial.
Research on Emotion and Learning: Contributions from Latin America
Latin America has increased its share of world scientific publications by nearly twofold during the last two decades (approximately from 2 to 4%). Despite this positive trend, the scholarly impact of scientific research produced in the region - measured in terms of citation rate - remains low. Two interrelated factors that contribute to this situation is that most research groups tend to work in isolation or in local sporadic collaboration, and results are often published in journals that are not indexed in major citation databases (e.g., SCOPUS, or Web of Science). Ultimately, part of Latin American high-quality research seems to remain hidden from the rest of the world. Over the last decad...
The Science of Human Motricity
The International Human Motricity Network (IHMN) is a non-profit educational, technical, scientific and cultural association whose main objectives are to promote the voluntary association of teaching, research or scientific dissemination institutions, as well as people and physical or legal entities interested in education, research and dissemination of science. For this purpose, it carries out bilateral or multilateral cooperation agreements between all involved, in order to promote teaching, research and content qualification for intervention in the promotion of health and performance through human motor skills. All professionals from different areas of knowledge have the IHMN as their loc...
Renascendo das Cinzas
Essa obra retrata a minha história, um estudante de doutorado chamado Adriano Alberti, que possui mestrado, duas especializações e duas graduações, sendo que o sonho de sua família era de poder oferecer estudos a seus filhos e assim se fez, recebendo a ajuda incansável de seus pais e um começo de história que tem em seus avós vendendo seus pedaços de terra para poder ir morar na cidade e oferecer estudos a seus herdeiros. Porém, Adriano é portador de Borderline, TOC e Síndrome do Pânico e encarou três internações em clinicas de reabilitação. Tendo de encarar não apenas uma mente perversa (Síndromes), mas que foi surpreendido por um mundo muito mais perverso, encarando a...
Cortisol
Cortisol, the main stress hormone, is a marker of the body's adaptation to challenge. Physiology and regulation of cortisol are intricately related to an individual's health, both physical and psychological. In this book, the authors present current research in the physiology, regulation and health implications of cortisol. Topics include cortisol transport across biological barriers; the biophysical correlates of cortisol activity in children exposed to natural disasters; predictions of physiological disorders by accurate measurement of the cortisol to cortisone ratios and the relationship of cortisol to physical exercise and athletic performance.
Dermatoglyphics in Medical Disorders
The skin on the fingertips and palmar and plantar surfaces of man is not smooth. It is grooved by curious ridges, which form a variety of configurations. These ridge configurations have attracted the at tention of laymen for millenia. They have also evoked the serious interest of scientists for more than three centuries. The anatomist Bidloo provided a description of ridge detail in the seventeenth cen tury. Since then, additional information has been added by anthro pologists, biologists, and geneticists. For the last century, the fact that each individual's ridge configurations are unique has been uti lized as a means of personal identification especially by law enforce ment officials. Wid...
Biomechanics
The motivation for writing aseries ofbooks on biomechanics is to bring this rapidly developing subject to students of bioengineering, physiology, and mechanics. In the last decade biomechanics has become a recognized disci pline offered in virtually all universities. Yet there is no adequate textbook for instruction; neither is there a treatise with sufficiently broad coverage. A few books bearing the title of biomechanics are too elementary, others are too specialized. I have long feIt a need for a set of books that will inform students of the physiological and medical applications of biomechanics, and at the same time develop their training in mechanics. We cannot assume that all students ...
Global House Price Fluctuations
We examine the properties of house price fluctuations across 18 advanced economies over the past 40 years. We ask two specific questions: First, how synchronized are housing cycles across these countries? Second, what are the main shocks driving movements in global house prices? To address these questions, we first estimate the global components in house prices and various macroeconomic and financial variables. We then evaluate the roles played by a variety of global shocks, including shocks to interest rates, monetary policy, productivity, credit, and uncertainty, in explaining house price fluctuations using a wide range of FAVAR models. We find that house prices are synchronized across countries, and the degree of synchronization has increased over time. Global interest rate shocks tend to have a significant negative effect on global house prices whereas global monetary policy shocks per se do not appear to have a sizeable impact. Interestingly, uncertainty shocks seem to be important in explaining fluctuations in global house prices.
Abiotic and Biotic Stress in Plants
The impact of global climate change on crop production has emerged as a major research priority during the past decade. Understanding abiotic stress factors such as temperature and drought tolerance and biotic stress tolerance traits such as insect pest and pathogen resistance in combination with high yield in plants is of paramount importance to counter climate change related adverse effects on the productivity of crops. In this multi-authored book, we present synthesis of information for developing strategies to combat plant stress. Our effort here is to present a judicious mixture of basic as well as applied research outlooks so as to interest workers in all areas of plant science. We trust that the information covered in this book would bridge the much-researched area of stress in plants with the much-needed information for evolving climate-ready crop cultivars to ensure food security in the future.
