Salud pública y teoría cuántica
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.
Modelamiento basado en agentes (MBA) en estudio de salud pública
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).
The Dictator's Seduction
The dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo, who ruled the Dominican Republic from 1930 until his assassination in 1961, was one of the longest and bloodiest in Latin American history. The Dictator’s Seduction is a cultural history of the Trujillo regime as it was experienced in the capital city of Santo Domingo. Focusing on everyday forms of state domination, Lauren Derby describes how the regime infiltrated civil society by fashioning a “vernacular politics” based on popular idioms of masculinity and fantasies of race and class mobility. Derby argues that the most pernicious aspect of the dictatorship was how it appropriated quotidian practices such as gossip and gift exchange, leaving almos...
Colombia's Killer Networks
VI. The U.S role
Constitutional Origin and Norm Creation in Colombia
This book explains the growing empowerment of the Colombian Constitutional Court in the early years of the 21st century and develops the concept of the deliberative judge. Taking the case of the Colombian Constitutional Court and drawing on neoinstitutional theory to explain the relationship between political crisis and institutional reforms, the book challenges the notion of rational choice institutionalism that agents act strategically. It indicates the limits of path dependence and argues instead that discursive institutionalism is the most appropriate method for analyzing processes of institutional learning. Combining theoretical and empirical research, it builds the argument that judicial independence promotes the case for deliberative democracy over rational choice or strategic action approaches. Finally, the book suggests that by introducing communicative and cognitive variables in our understanding of key actors and processes, we are more capable of bridging institutional origin and legacy. The work will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers, and policy-makers in Constitutional Law, Constitutional Politics, and Constitutional History.
They Forged the Signature of God
This vivid exposé of corruption and political tyranny in the Dominican Republic rang so true to the reality that the President of that country went on television to denounce the book. Sención's novel follows the lives of three seminary students who suffer from church-state oppression. The book also gives a chilling portrait of Dr. Ramos, a sinister autocrat, who manages to survive six terms as president of his country through manipulation and tyranny.
Fungal Ecology
Fungi play vital roles in all ecosystems, as decomposers, symbionts of animals and plants and as parasites. Thus their ecology is of great interest. It has been estimated that there may be as many as 1. 5 million species of fungi, many of which are still undescribed. These interact in various ways with their hosts, with their substrates, with their competitors (including other fungi) and with abiotic variables of their environment. They show great variation in morphology, reproduction, life cycles and modes of dispersal. They grow in almost every conceivable habitat where organic carbon is available: on rock surfaces, in soil, the sea and in fresh water, at extremes of high and low temperatu...
