El árbol que Dios Plantó
This unique book describes the 25 species of trees mentioned in the Bible. Each tree is analyzed in depth from many angles: its significance in the Bible, its contemporary significance, its uses and symbolism, etc. This rigorous research work is among the very few formal studies of the trees mentioned in the Bible. The book is beautifully illustrated with color pictures of each tree.
L’Europa cavalleresca i la ficció literària
Al volum tercer s’analitza l’ambientació del Curial (geopolítica, indumentària, música, numismàtica, heràldica...) i es desxifra una elaborada i curiosa onomàstica, amb una evident càrrega al·legòrica (la Güelfa, l’Arta, Làquesis, Tura, Melchior, etc) i clars paral·lelismes amb personatges històrics de l’Europa cavalleresca del segle xv. Figures com Renat d’Anjou, Gherardo Dandolo o el duc de Venosa són ridiculitzades per haver-se oposat als projectes d’Alfons el Magnànim. Alguns protagonistes de la ficció literària (Curial, Boca de Far, Ambròsio de Spíndola, el senyor Salanova, Salonés de Verona, Del Chastell...) evoquen els noms d’amics i de rivals del gran camarlenc i diplomàtic Enyego d’Àvalos. D’altres (Maça-Cornell, Cardona, Martines de Luna, Ximenes d’Urrea...) reten homenatge a cavallers criats amb ell a València, que ocupaven altes responsabilitats de govern al Nàpols del 1445.
Cristología
Jesucristo no fue solo el marco de referencia entre los períodos del A. C. y D. C. sino que Jesús continúa cambiando el curso de la vida de todo aquel que tiene una relación personal con él. Dicha persona puede experimentar que su vida es marcada positivamente, por un antes y un después de conocer a Cristo, siendo el segundo periodo el mejor. EL HOMBRE QUE DIVIDIÓ LA HISTORIA. Foreword: “Es un privilegio recomendar la primera obra teológica de mi amigo y compañero Daniel. Su libro es una joya sobre la cual la iglesia de Jesucristo debería reflexionar” Floyd Woodworth. “Mientras que el “grano” del evangelio nunca cambia, la “cascara” del mismo siempre se aplicará seg...
Justiça Terapêutica e Cortes de Drogas
Os crimes relacionados ao consumo de drogas nunca deixaram de estar em evidência. A forma de abordagem a esse tipo de criminalidade é que vem sofrendo algumas transformações ao longo das décadas. No Brasil se ouve falar em Justiça Terapêutica, como sendo uma variante do modelo norte-americano das Cortes de Drogas, a qual reconhece que, afastando-se o uso de droga em relação ao infrator, ocorreria uma redução importante da criminalidade, trazendo ainda outros benefícios sociais e individuais. Ocorre, contudo, que existem inúmeras indefinições e incompreensões acerca do que constitui a Justiça Terapêutica e as Cortes de Drogas. Tais incertezas trazem consigo uma grande insegu...
Parasitology and Microbiology Research
The study of both unicellular and multicellular living beings and the diseases they produce from a biological point of view requires constant review of their relationship with their host and environment, given their indisputable sanitary importance. In this sense, in parasitology and microbiology, updated and concise information on life cycle, taxonomic classification, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, epidemiological behavior, and control measures is of vital importance. This is what we pursue with this book. The approach to parasitology and microbiology and the research that is carried out on it is unquestionable because the associations between life forms have been present from the very beginning of life.Research in parasitology and microbiology is necessary and indispensable for controlling diseases that affect much of the world with serious economic and social consequences. The challenge is to promote research to keep these diseases at bay. This book shows what has been done up to now and what can be done in the future to combat infectious diseases.
Shared Responsibility
Shared Responsibility: U.S.-Mexico Policy Options for Confronting Organized Crime is a joint research project between the Woodrow Wilson Center's Mexico Institute and the University of San Diego's Trans-Border Institute. This publication examines specific challenges for security cooperation between the United States and Mexico including efforts to address the consumption of narcotics, money laundering, arms trafficking, intelligence sharing, policy strengthening, judicial reform, civil-military relations, and the protection of journalists. It concludes that binational efforts to stop organized crime and the exploding violence in Mexico have made positive advances but could fail to adequately address the challenge unless cooperation is significantly deepened and expanded.
Police Reform in Mexico
The urgent need to professionalize Mexican police has been recognized since the early 1990s, but despite even the most well-intentioned promises from elected officials and police chiefs, few gains have been made in improving police integrity. Why have reform efforts in Mexico been largely unsuccessful? This book seeks to answer the question by focusing on Mexico's municipal police, which make up the largest percentage of the country's police forces. Indeed, organized crime presents a major obstacle to institutional change, with criminal groups killing hundreds of local police in recent years. Nonetheless, Daniel Sabet argues that the problems of Mexican policing are really problems of govern...
Malformed Frogs
The widespread appearance of frogs with deformed bodies has generated much press coverage over the past decade. Frogs with extra limbs or digits, missing limbs or digits, or misaligned appendages raise an alarming question: "Are deformed humans next?" Taking a fresh look at this disturbing environmental problem, this reference provides a balanced overview of the science behind the malformed frog phenomenon. Bringing together data from ecology, parasitology, and other disciplines, Michael Lannoo considers the possible causes of these deformities, tells which frogs have been affected, and addresses questions about what these malformations might mean to human populations. Featuring high-quality radiographic images, Malformed Frogs suggests that our focus should be on finding practical solutions, a key component of which will be controlling chemical, nutrient, and pesticide runoff into wetlands.
