This book examines sex and gender differences in the causes and expression of medical conditions, including mental health disorders. Sex differences are variations attributable to individual reproductive organs and the XX or XY chromosomal complement. Gender differences are variations that result from biological sex as well as individual self-representation which include psychological, behavioural, and social consequences of an individual’s perceived gender. Gender is still a neglected field in psychopathology, and gender differences is often incorrectly used as a synonym of sex differences. A reconsideration of the definition of gender, as the term that subsumes masculinity and femininity...
En esta publicación se despliegan estrategias para la reinterpretación de la docencia y de sus docentes, y se sitúa el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje y, por tanto formativo, como foco de atención prioritario en la sociedad del futuro. La responsabilidad de la educación no está únicamente en manos del profesorado docente e investigador, es necesario tomar decisiones conjuntas desde las culturas políticas, académicas, sociales y empresariales. El currículum deberá ser, por tanto, objeto de profundas revisiones para ir dotándolo de una base común donde la innovación sea sistemática, sistémica y continua.

Whether Proust's research can be classified as autofiction is subject to debate. What is not debatable is its glorification as the founding of autofictive writing. Many authors praise Marcel Proust as a revolutionary, exalting him as a quintessential literate, if not even a patron saint of this controversially discussed genre. The present study examines Proust's reception as exemplified by three preeminent writers of autofiction in France, Spain and Italy. The Proustian reminiscences span an ambivalent adoption of metaphors relating to memory and death in Doubrovsky's postmodern autofiction, extending through the fantastic rewriting of Combray and the Temps retrouvé by Carmen Martín Gaite up to the ironic revision of the Albertine figure and Proust's epiphany in Walter Sitis hyper-realistic autofiction.
Algorithms serve an important purpose in the field of psychopharmacology as heuristics for avoiding the biases and cognitive lapses that are common when prescribing for many conditions whose treatment is based on complex data. Unique in the field, this title compiles twelve papers from the Psychopharmacology Algorithm Project at the Harvard South Shore Psychiatry Residency Training Program and presents practical ways to adopt evidence-based practices into the day-to-day treatment of patients. Psychopharmacology Algorithms is a useful resource for practicing psychiatrists, residents, and fellows, as well as psychiatric nurse practitioners, psychiatric physician assistants who prescribe, advanced practice pharmacists who prescribe, and primary care clinicians. Teachers of psychopharmacology may find it particularly valuable. Researchers in clinical psychopharmacology may find it helpful in identifying important practice areas that are in need of further study.
A finales de julio de 1897 el anarquista italiano Michele Angiolillo mantuvo una serie de encuentros en París con el líder revolucionario puertorriqueño Ramón Emeterio Betances. Sabemos poco de lo que se discutió en esas reuniones clandestinas donde la falta de testigos sumiría en el misterio, hasta el fin de los tiempos, unas componendas que habrían de acarrear hechos funestos. Diez días después de la última cita, en el Balneario de Santa Águeda (Arrasate, Gipuzkoa), Angiolillo asesinó a Antonio Cánovas del Castillo con tres tiros a bocajarro. El magnicidio del jefe del Gobierno español, que José Francisco Buscaglia reconstruye con todo lujo de detalles, conduciría directame...
Sustainable horticulture is gaining increasing attention in the field of agriculture as demand for the food production rises to the world community. Sustainable horticultural systems are based on ecological principles to farm, optimizes pest and disease management approaches through environmentally friendly and renewable strategies in production agriculture. It is a discipline that addresses current issues such as food security, water pollution, soil health, pest control, and biodiversity depletion. Novel, environmentally-friendly solutions are proposed based on integrated knowledge from sciences as diverse as agronomy, soil science, entomology, ecology, chemistry and food sciences. Sustainable horticulture interprets methods and processes in the farming system to the global level. For that, horticulturists use the system approach that involves studying components and interactions of a whole system to address scientific, economic and social issues. In that respect, sustainable horticulture is not a classical, narrow science. Instead of solving problems using the classical painkiller approach that treats only negative impacts, sustainable horticulture treats problem sources.
