Antropología pública de la conservación
Desde el ámbito de la antropología de la conservación, se analizan los procesos de declaración, desarrollo y gestión de las áreas protegidas y, en concreto, mediante una selección de casos de estudio, los de los parques naturales. Con una mirada crítica, holística y comparativa, se examinan las políticas conservacionistas orientadas a la planificación, reordenación y participación en espacios socioecosistémicos con dinámicas socioculturales complejas. Los distintos capítulos se articulan transversalmente en torno a la reivindicación de la antropología pública de la conservación y comparten un objetivo central: reflexionar sobre las áreas protegidas con una voluntad transformadora y diseñar la implementación de acciones efectivas para su conservación.
Llàgrimes vora mar
Son malos tiempos para la memoria. Son malos tiempos también para el Cabanyal, que vive sitiado por una sentencia de muerte que lo hace ir desvaneciéndose cada día que pasa ante la indiferencia de la clase política. Y en medio de estos tiempos convulsos, hemos querido recuperar las historias de vida de sus habitantes, que vieron truncada su niñez y juventud por la Guerra Civil, la posguerra y la riada de 1957. Este libro se estructura alrededor de estos tres ejes temporales, con testigos directas de los protagonistas. Sus evocaciones, resultado de un esfuerzo y sobreesfuerzo de memoria, con lagunas, vacíos y episodios casi borrados, nos sirven de puente entre el pasado y el presente. El resultado del trabajo colectivo nos arrecia en el convencimiento que estas experiencias acontecen un recurso didáctico muy valioso para las prácticas docentes.

The Land Gardeners
From enriching the soil to creating floral arrangements, The Land Gardeners explores all aspects of creating a productive cut-flower garden. When Bridget Elworthy and Henrietta Courtauld established their firm Land Gardeners, which specializes in cut flowers, they revived the tradition of working with the land to produce abundant, seasonal flowers for use in decoration, design, and events. Yet, as beautiful and idyllic as their designs are, soil health and productivity are their main concerns. Beginning with their philosophy and origins as gardeners, The Land Gardeners provides vital information on everything you need to create your own cut-flower garden, from necessary tools and how to support health to what plants flourish in which seasons and advice on gathering, preparing, and arranging your blooms. In this gorgeous volume, the authors provide a plan for growing flowers in all four seasons. As beautiful as it is informative, this book explores the joy of gathering cut flowers and the importance of surrounding ourselves with healthy, vital gardens.

Doing Business 2010
The seventh in a series of annual reports investigating the regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it, 'Doing Business' presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and the protection of property rights that can be compared across 183 economies--from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe--and over time. Regulations affecting 10 stages of a business's life are measured: starting a business, dealing with construction permits, employing workers, registering property, getting credit, protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts and closing a business. Data in 'Doing Business 2010' are current as of June 1, 2009. The indicators are used to analyze economic outcomes and identify what reforms have worked, where and why.
