Confessions: Commentary on Books 8-13 ; Indexes
Chihuahuas are the world¿s tiniest dogs¿but that doesn¿t stop them from being some of the bravest and boldest canines around! Right off the bat, you¿ll meet Zoey, a five-pound Chihuahua who saved her one-year-old companion from a rattlesnake bite¿by getting bitten herself! Where did this courage come from? Perhaps it came from the Chihuahua¿s ancestors, who lived with the Toltecs and Aztecs of Mexico as far back as 1,000 years ago. Today, the little dog is found in the homes of everyday citizens, in movies such as Legally Blonde, and even in Taco Bell commercials. Chihuahua: Señor Tiny is a narrative treat for dog lovers that includes amazing, real-life stories about these little pups while also recounting the breed¿s history and its relationship to the animal¿s physical characteristics, personality, and suitability as a pet. Chihuahua: Señor Tiny is part of Bearport¿s Little Dogs Rock! series.
INSTALACIONES DEPORTIVAS EN EL ÁMBITO ESCOLAR
Uno de los indicadores utilizados tradicionalmente para caracterizar a un centro escolar en sentido positivo ha sido el disponer, al menos, de instalaciones para la práctica deportiva. También es cierto que este argumento era normalmente esgrimido en segunda instancia, después de hablar del profesorado, del nivel de exigencia, del tipo de alumnos y alumnas y de otras cuestiones mas o menos pedagógicas. Y esta circunstancia de ir siempre detrás de otras dimensiones consideradas sustantivas del proceso educativo viene como podemos imaginar de la nula o escasa consideración de la actividad física y la práctica deportiva en la formación de la ciudadanía. Este libro contribuye significativamente a ofrecernos propuestas y alternativas en cuanto a los escenarios para la práctica deportiva y actividad física en el ámbito escolar.

Music Printing in Renaissance Venice
Venetian music print culture of the mid-sixteenth century is presented here through a study of the Scotto press, one of the foremost dynastic music publishers of the Renaissance. For over a century, the house of Scotto played a pivotal role in the international book trade, publishing in a variety of fields including philosophy, medicine, religion, and music. This book examines the mercantile activities of the firm through both a historical study, which illuminates the wide world of the Venetian music printing industry, and a catalog, which details the music editions brought out by the firm during its most productive period. A valuable reference work, this book not only enhances our understanding of the socioeconomic and cultural history of Renaissance Venice, it also helps to preserve our knowledge of a vast musical repertory.
