SOBRE A OBRA "Fernanda Schaefer e Frederico Glitz reuniram um time de craques para tratar de um tema que está (ou deveria estar) na ordem do dia: a telemedicina. O uso da tecnologia na saúde altera a prática médica em todo o mundo e, incrementada pela necessidade de combate a pandemia COVID, a telemedicina fatalmente vai dar seu frog jump. Do uso emergencial logo estaremos no seu uso corriqueiro, duradouro, permanente (o que já vem acontecendo, às vezes imperceptivelmente: me ocorre o exemplo do Telessaúde Brasil Redes e suas estratégias de teleconsultorias e telediagnósticos, entre outras aplicações ligadas à saúde digital). Doravante, diagnósticos e tratamentos médicos não ...
Bioética não é confortável. Confortável são os costumes e os hábitos. A bioética aponta incoerências e questiona costumes, alguns nos quais antes sequer havíamos percebido que havia um por quê de fazer daquele jeito. Desde os primeiros relatos de Ética de que temos notícias, desde a época de Sócrates (o filósofo, não o jogador, que por sinal, também questionava), estas perguntas têm feito seu papel de trazer novas reflexões, novos debates, novos diálogos, novos consensos e entre trancos e barrancos, a despeito das injustiças e das tragédias, ao longo dos séculos seguimos com uma melhoria discreta e contínua na nossa história como sociedades. Nem sempre com momentos ...
This book summarizes all currently available information on the ecology, environmental impacts and control methods of the golden mussel in industrial plants. The golden mussel was introduced in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, and South America between 1965 and 1990, swiftly spreading in freshwater waterbodies. In most areas invaded it has become the dominant macroinverebrate and a major fouling pest of industrial plants. Limnoperna fortunei attaches to any hard surface, as well as to some less firm substrates. The growth of Limnoperna populations in raw cooling water conduits became a common nuisance in many industrial and power plants that use raw river or lake water for their processes, both in South America and in Asia. This work is written by experts on the golden mussel from Asia, Europe, North America and South America, each chapter critically reviews previously available information, which is in sources of limited distribution, such as internal reports and theses, in various languages.
Esta obra inédita foi frutificada em capítulos autorais e/ou colaborativos que compilam as mais robustas publicações científicas sobre as frutas nativas e exóticas do Brasil. Uma abordagem que traduz a ciência da nutrição em estratégias práticas do uso sustentável das frutas nativas e exóticas, bem como apresenta o impacto à saúde humana e ao ecossistema de saúde planetária. Trata-se de um modelo pioneiro, que visa à valorização da biodiversidade brasileira, disseminação do conhecimento, à sistematização e à transformação das mais diversas civilizações, contribuindo, de tal modo, para o desenvolvimento sustentável proposto pela Organização das Nações Unidas...
Wedemeyer stresses that learning is a natural idiosyncratic, and continually renewable human trait and survival resource. It is not dependent upon teaching, schooling, or special environments, although-properly used-these resources enhance learning. There is a powerful subculture of independent learners who are responsible for much of the real progress that has been made in most areas on endeavor. This book attempts to explain this kind of learning and relate it to schooling, suggesting ways in which all learning-whether traditional or non-traditional-can be encouraged and improved through new kinds of educational institutions and processes.
This third edition of a successful, established text provides a concise and well-illustrated introduction to the ideas behind, and the practices flowing from the notion of sustainable development.
The Middle Paraná river is one of the largest in the world. Exceptionally rich in fauna and flora, it provides researchers with a glimpse into an ecosystem yet undisturbed by human civilization. This fascinating book covers all the key aspects of the Paraná’s fluvial limnology and ecology, arranged in discrete and easily navigable sections. First, the physical and chemical environment is explained, then the river’s plant life, followed by its invertebrate life, and finally the vertebrates that inhabit the river.

Four on a Garden is a set of four one-act plays that were presented on Broadway at the Broadhurst Theatre from January 30, 1971, until March 20, 1971. The set included House of Dunkelmayer, Betty, Toreador, and The Swingers.
In this volume, originally published by Smithsonian Institution Press in 1990, the editors present eight thorough case studies on a wide range of environments and cultural contexts to argue the advantages of full-coverage survey-the systematic coverage of a whole study area. A new prologue traces developments of the past two decades and shows how current archaeological practice favors full-coverage research design, both in cultural resource management and research contexts. From the reviews "[R]epresents an important step in the holistic analysis of regions. Full-coverage survey . . . has great analytical potential beyond the range of sample survey. . . . This volume will aid in the development of improved research designs and the interpretation of their results." Martin G. Dudek in American Antiquity "This book presents a strong case for broader application of FCS [full-coverage survey] . . . . [A]n important addition to the archaeological literature. . . . This volume systematically introduces full-coverage survey as a methodology for regional analysis." Stanton W. Green in Winterthur Portfolio
