The Role of Nutrition in Integral Health and Quality of Life
Achieving integral health is a challenge that necessitates a diversified approach from different disciplines to achieve a coordinated impact on people’s health. Food and nutrition form an essential part of this approach. This new book explores some important advances in the role of nutrition in integral health and quality of life, laying special emphasis on the challenges that humans face in this era of sedentary lifestyles, diseases associated with food consumption, and social, economic, environmental, and cultural crises. The volume discusses interdisciplinary approaches to nutrition, focusing on nutrition for children, the impact of nutrition on chronic noncommunicable diseases and gastrointestinal disorders, the nutritional profile of fermented foods and their health benefits, microstructured particles as bioactive compound carriers, and more. The book also offers an analysis of obesity and its dimensions, covering childhood obesity risks and challenges at home and at school, quality of life in adult patients with diabetes, the role of genetics and epigenetics in obesity, and more. The impact of nutrition on oral and dental health is also addressed in the book.
Maureen O'Hara
Ang Lee (b. 1954) has emerged as one of cinema's most versatile, critically acclaimed, and popular directors. Known for his ability to transcend cultural and stylistic boundaries, Lee has built a diverse oeuvre that includes films about culture clashes and globalization (Eat Drink Man Woman, 1994, and The Wedding Banquet, 1993), a period drama (Sense and Sensibility, 1995), a martial arts epic (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, 2000), a comic book action movie (Hulk, 2003), and an American western (Brokeback Mountain, 2005). The Philosophy of Ang Lee draws from both Eastern and Western philosophical traditions to examine the director's works. The first section focuses on Taoist, Confucian, and...
Antiquarian Literature in the Sixteenth Century
During the sixteenth century, antiquarian studies (the study of the material past, comprising modern archaeology, epigraphy, and numismatics) rose in Europe in parallel to the technical development of the printing press. Some humanists continued to prefer the manuscript form to disseminate their findings – as numerous fair copies of sylloges and treatises attest –, but slowly the printed medium grew in popularity, with its obvious advantages but also its many challenges. As antiquarian printed works appeared, the relationship between manuscript and printed sources also became less linear: printed copies of earlier works were annotated to serve as a means of research, and printed works could be copied by hand – partially or even completely. This book explores how antiquarian literature (collections of inscriptions, treatises, letters...) developed throughout the sixteenth century, both in manuscript and in print; how both media interacted with each other, and how these printed antiquarian works were received, as attested by the manuscript annotations left by their early modern owners and readers.
El choque inevitable
¿Por qué López Obrador se ha obsesionado con los medios (sobre todo con los "conservadores"), a quienes considera sus más fieros contrincantes? ¿Por qué miente y desinforma con tanta confianza incluso cuando se le presentan evidencias que anulan sus afirmaciones? ¿Qué consecuencias políticas tiene su actitud retadora y desdeñosa hacia la verdad y los hechos? Sea como unrecurso para polarizar al país en su beneficio o como una genuina estrategia de cambio, el presidente de México ha logrado convertir la relación entre el poder y los medios de comunicación en uno de los aspectos centrales de su gestión. Esto ha generado confrontación, pero también dependencia, y ha marcado el ...

Argentine Cinema
Argentine Cinema: From Noir to Neo-Noir examines the phenomenon of Argentine film noir. Beginning with definitions of film noir and its international iterations, the book presents a history of the development of film noir and neo-noir in Argentina (from the 1940s to the present), as well as a technical, aesthetic, and socio-historical analysis of such recent Argentine neo-noir films as The Aura, The Secret in Their Eyes, and The German Doctor. It considers the question of inscription of such classic noirs as Double Indemnity and The Third Man and looks forward to future scholarly work on other Latin American noir and neo-noir films, especially those produced in Mexico and Brazil.
Innovación social en educación
El libro que el lector tiene en sus manos es una contribución para el conocimiento de la educación básica de México. La motivación fundamental del trabajo proviene de la necesidad de identificar algunas características esenciales del cambio educativo promovido por la acción social en México en determinado contexto político y administrativo, local o omunitario, por una parte, y por los actores de la educación en sus ámbitos escolares particulares, por la otra. Lo anterior con el fin de destacar las contribuciones que la práctica educativa hace a los procesos de elaboración de políticas públicas o a su renovación.
