Experimental Evolution
This volume summarizes studies in experimental evolution, outlining current techniques and applications, and presenting the field's range of research.
High Mountain Conservation in a Changing World
This book provides case studies and general views of the main processes involved in the ecosystem shifts occurring in the high mountains and analyses the implications for nature conservation. Case studies from the Pyrenees are preponderant, with a comprehensive set of mountain ranges surrounded by highly populated lowland areas also being considered. The introductory and closing chapters will summarise the main challenges that nature conservation may face in mountain areas under the environmental shifting conditions. Further chapters put forward approaches from environmental geography, functional ecology, biogeography, and paleoenvironmental reconstructions. Organisms from microbes to large carnivores, and ecosystems from lakes to forest will be considered. This interdisciplinary book will appeal to researchers in mountain ecosystems, students and nature professionals. This book is open access under a CC BY license.
Palladacycles
From synthesis to applications in catalysis, material science and biology this much-needed book is the first to comprehensively present everything you need to know about palladacycles. Renowned international authors guarantee high-quality content, making this a must-have for everyone working in the field.
Pick Up and Oocyte Management
This richly illustrated book focuses on one of the specific and crucial steps of the Medically Assisted Procreation techniques that is often overlooked: the oocyte pick-up. Enhanced by a large number of high-quality pictures, this atlas of oocyte retrieval comprehensively describes important aspects such as the setting of the ultrasonic equipment, the choice of needle, the layout of the devices in the room and the technique to be used, which, if not properly handled, can lead to erroneous behaviors. The original and detailed illustrations, mainly microscopic images and explanatory drawings, help readers to better understand how to manage all the phases of the ovarian pick-up and oocyte management. This practical atlas provides a valuable guide for all specialists who want to improve their skills and gain confidence with the MPA techniques.
Amazônia
Trata-se de coletânea que aborda o espaço-tempo amazônico sob diversas perspectivas, dividida em sete partes e 32 capítulos. A obra detalha as ações de agentes sociais na construção do espaço na região de Carajás. Com mais de 700 páginas, explora a dinâmica socioeconômica e histórica da região, enfatizando a interação entre forças hegemônicas e resistências locais. Analisa conceitos complexos como desenvolvimento regional, fronteira, urbanização, e divisão social do trabalho, além de investigar os impactos do capitalismo na Amazônia. A fronteira é vista como um espaço de tensões e recombinações socioculturais. A obra também aborda questões agrárias, educação, e as pressões sobre a cobertura florestal, propondo estratégias de desenvolvimento sustentável. Trata-se de uma contribuição para o debate acadêmico e político sobre a Amazônia, levantando questões sobre o futuro da região e a necessidade de um desenvolvimento justo e inclusivo, propondo um novo olhar sobre as potencialidades regionais, defendendo a promoção de direitos e justiça para a população local.
Grapes and Wines
The book "Grapes and Wines: Advances in Production, Processing, Analysis, and Valorization" intends to provide to the reader a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art and different perspectives regarding the most recent knowledge related to grape and wine production. Thus, this book is composed of three different general sections: (1) Viticulture and Environmental Conditions, (2) Wine Production and Characterization, and (3) Economic Analysis and Valorization of Wine Products. Inside these 3 general sections, 16 different chapters provide current research on different topics of recent advances on production, processing, analysis, and valorization of grapes and wines. All chapters are written by a group of international researchers, in order to provide up-to-date reviews, overviews, and summaries of current research on the different dimensions of grape and wine production. This book is not only intended for technicians actively engaged in the field but also for students attending technical schools and/or universities and other professionals that might be interested in reading and learning about some fascinating areas of grape and wine research.

A Population-Based Policy and Systems Change Approach to Prevent and Control Hypertension
Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, affecting nearly one in three Americans. It is prevalent in adults and endemic in the older adult population. Hypertension is a major contributor to cardiovascular morbidity and disability. Although there is a simple test to diagnose hypertension and relatively inexpensive drugs to treat it, the disease is often undiagnosed and uncontrolled. A Population-Based Policy and Systems Change Approach to the Prevention and Control Hypertension identifies a small set of high-priority areas in which public health officials can focus their efforts to accelerate progress in hypertension reduction and control. It offers several rec...
