La universidad que fue y será

Este es un primer trabajo de lo que esperamos sea una obra mucho más extensa dadas las dimensiones del problema que nos compete. Una primera piedra desde donde comenzar a pensar y por sobre todo a cuestionar lo que son nuestras actuales universidades, y principalmente de lo que han sido sus identidades, aspectos que han quedado fuera del análisis al respecto, pero que constituyen parte de un fondo aún soterrado bajo las capas y capas de problemas más superficiales que hoy las aquejan y que lamentablemente se han transformado en los únicos énfasis para las demandas y políticas que se han desarrollado respecto de su compleja condición casi terminal. Asimismo, también es un trabajo fue...

La academia sonámbula

Este librito bosqueja una historia revisionista de la institución universitaria chilena desde su primera instalación en 1622 y hasta la era digital, que comenzó en 1989. Advierte acerca de la inédita paradoja educativa que ella contiene. En las sociedades occidentales coincide hoy la mayor riqueza material con la mayor pobreza espiritual o intelectual de su sector dirigente, el que valora a la primera como un fin en sí mismo, no como un medio. La pobreza espiritual o intelectual es efecto y causa de la creciente comercialización de las relaciones humanas. La filosofía y la historia serían despreciables porque no aumentan el valor comercial de producto alguno. La academia sonámbula ...

Political Philosophy from an Intercultural Perspective

The objective of the following collected volume is to encourage a critical reflection on the relationship between "power" and "non-power" in our contemporary "world" and, proceeding from various philosophical traditions, to investigate the multifaceted aspects of this relationship. The authors’ respective investigations proceed from an intercultural perspective and fall predominantly in the domain of political theory and philosophy. This volume takes an intercultural political perspective, which means, on the one hand, involving non-European philosophies in a global debate about power relations and their effects in the world and, on the other hand, confronting local traditions of thought w...

Advances in Maternal-Fetal Biomedicine

This edited volumeaims to describe physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms that underlie human maternal-fetal interactions. The book emphasizes the structure and development of the fetoplacental unit, the endocrine and nutritional regulation of fetal development, nitric oxide signalling, solute carriers function and ion channels regulation in healthy pregnancies and diseases, like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and maternal obesity, among others. Also, we highlight novel mechanisms associated with language impairment in children, the use of serotonin inhibitors or cannabis during pregnancy, and maternal conditions' potential impact on cerebrovascular development in newborns and infants. The cellular and molecular understanding of maternal-fetal physiology and pathophysiology will allow the readers to understand the impact of diseases or conditions that are highly prevalent in pregnant women.

Air Quality Monitoring, Assessment and Management

Air Quality Monitoring, Assessment and Management

Human beings need to breathe oxygen diluted in certain quantity of inert gas for living. In the atmosphere, there is a gas mixture of, mainly, oxygen and nitrogen, in appropriate proportions. However, the air also contains other gases, vapours and aerosols that humans incorporate when breathing and whose composition and concentration vary spatially. Some of these are physiologically inert. Air pollution has become a problem of major concern in the last few decades as it has caused negative effects on human health, nature and properties. This book presents the results of research studies carried out by international researchers in seventeen chapters which can be grouped into two main sections: a) air quality monitoring and b) air quality assessment and management, and serves as a source of material for all those involved in the field, whether as a student, scientific researcher, industrialist, consultant, or government agency with responsibility in this area.
