Curso de Sociologia Jurídica
Como parte das Ciências Sociais, a Sociologia Jurídica deve cumprir o papel de formar alunos e operadores do Direito com uma consciência crítica, capaz de perceber, não só os grandes temas teóricos da disciplina, mas também visualizar os problemas do mundo jurídico que afetam o nosso país. Torna-se, portanto, essencial absorver o conteúdo das reflexões de eminentes autores expostos nos diversos capítulos, bem como compreender de que forma a Sociologia Jurídica é capaz de traduzir os dilemas e dificuldades da relação entre o Direito e a Sociedade, principalmente, em nosso caso, em nosso país. Afinal, como bem afirmam os Professores Lier Ferreira e Vladimyr Lombardo, "Se o Di...
Research as a Basis for Teaching
These selections from the work of Lawrence Stenhouse make a sustained argument for research as a basis for teaching.
Invasion Genetics
Invasion Genetics: the Baker & Stebbins legacy provides a state-of-the-art treatment of the evolutionary biology of invasive species, whilst also revisiting the historical legacy of one of the most important books in evolutionary biology: The Genetics of Colonizing Species, published in 1965 and edited by Herbert Baker and G. Ledyard Stebbins. This volume covers a range of topics concerned with the evolutionary biology of invasion including: phylogeography and the reconstruction of invasion history; demographic genetics; the role of stochastic forces in the invasion process; the contemporary evolution of local adaptation; the significance of epigenetics and transgenerational plasticity for invasive species; the genomic consequences of colonization; the search for invasion genes; and the comparative biology of invasive species. A wide diversity of invasive organisms are discussed including plants, animals, fungi and microbes.
History and Memory
In this brillant meditation on conceptions of history, Le Goff traces the evolution of the historian's craft. Examining real and imagined oppositions between past and present, ancient and modern, oral and written history, History and Memory reveals the strands of continuity that have characterized historiography from ancient Mesopotamia to modern Europe.
Plant Conservation
This practical and bold book unifies multiple aspects of plant conservation into a single coherent concept, linking theory and methodology.
Trait-Mediated Indirect Interactions
This book reviews state-of-the-art research into trait-based effects and their importance in community and ecosystem ecology.
An Ice Age Hunter
The story of a year in the life of an ice-age family as experienced by a young girl.
Genetics of Adaptation
An enduring controversy in evolutionary biology is the genetic basis of adaptation. Darwin emphasized "many slight differences" as the ultimate source of variation to be acted upon by natural selection. In the early 1900’s, this view was opposed by "Mendelian geneticists", who emphasized the importance of "macromutations" in evolution. The Modern Synthesis resolved this controversy, concluding that mutations in genes of very small effect were responsible for adaptive evolution. A decade ago, Allen Orr and Jerry Coyne reexamined the evidence for this neo-Darwinian view and found that both the theoretical and empirical basis for it were weak. Orr and Coyne encouraged evolutionary biologists to reexamine this neglected question: what is the genetic basis of adaptive evolution? In this volume, a new generation of biologists have taken up this challenge. Using advances in both molecular genetic and statistical techniques, evolutionary geneticists have made considerable progress in this emerging field. In this volume, a diversity of examples from plant and animal studies provides valuable information for those interested in the genetics and evolution of complex traits.
