Las ciencias sociales y humanas, al igual que las ciencias de la salud –incluida la medicina–, son, a la fecha, precuánticas. Si les va bien, en el mejor de los casos, son relativistas, en el sentido de la teoría de la relatividad de Einstein. Es imposible entender el mundo de hoy, la realidad y la naturaleza sin un conocimiento básico de la teoría cuántica. Este libro busca llenar un vacío en una triple dirección: tender puentes entre la física cuántica y las ciencias sociales, tenderlos entre la teoría cuántica y las ciencias de la salud, y pensar, al mismo tiempo, la salud (no ya la enfermedad). El marco genérico es el contexto de las relaciones entre la salud y las ciencias de la complejidad. Una idea de base: la salud no es única –ni principalmente– un problema antropológico, antropomórfico o antropocéntrico.
Los temas y problemas de salud pública demandan, dada la complejidad creciente del mundo, nuevos métodos y aproximaciones. Este libro ofrece una aproximación a la relación entre la salud pública y las herramientas de la teoría de la complejidad como el modelamiento y la simulación. Por consiguiente, se trata de una comprensión de la salud en el marco de las ciencias de la complejidad. El modelamiento basado en agentes (MBA) consiste en una exploración de tesis y de problemas en términos del trabajo con posibilidades, antes que en términos simplemente estadísticos y de tendencias. El lenguaje de programación adoptado en los trabajos que componen este libro se concentran en Netlogo(R).

This book gathers revised selected papers from the 3rd International Workshop on Gerontechnology, IWoG 2020, held on October 5-6, 2020, in Évora, Portugal. They reports on cutting-edge technologies and optimized workflows for promoting active aging and assisting and elderly people at home, as well as in healthcare centers. It discusses the main challenges in the development, use and delivery of health care services and technologies. Not only they proposes solutions for improving in practice the monitoring and management of health parameters and age-related diseases, yet they also describes improved approaches for helping seniors in their daily tasks and facilitating their communication and integration with assistive technologies, thus improving their quality of life, as well as their social integration. The book provides health professionals, researchers, and service providers with extensive information on the latest trends in the development and practical application of gerontechnology in elderly care.
"A major hommage of four exhibitions in four museums in Mexico City. The single catalogue documents all four exhibitions. In chronological order the exhibitions are: Collection of Carlos Monsiváis that includes work in and outside of Mexico; Retrospective vision "Geography of an Illustrator" on illustrated books, magazines and other works by Covarrubias. This exhibition includes much of his international work, in the U.S., including items on his work on Bali and African-American culture; the last two exhibitions were held at the same venue propose new approaches to the study of Covarrubias. "El Chamaco and other famous Mexicans" presented his caricatures of figures from Mexican life and culture. The exhibition "Yólotl Bali, Yólotl Tehuantepec" offered a vision of Covarrubias as archaeologist. A great reference with many detailed essays."--Provided by vendor.
The revolutionary movements that emerged frequently in Latin America over the past century promoted goals that included overturning dictatorships, confronting economic inequalities, and creating what Cuban revolutionary hero Che Guevara called the "new man." But, in fact, many of the "new men" who participated in these movements were not men. Thousands of them were women. This book aims to show why a full understanding of revolutions needs to take account of gender. Karen Kampwirth writes here about the women who joined the revolutionary movements in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and the Mexican state of Chiapas, about how they became guerrillas, and how that experience changed their lives. In the...
