Relatos de mujeres científicas es una obra que reúne la historia de más de cuarenta mujeres en las ciencias biológicas. Cada investigadora narra su historia personal como si se estuviera viendo en el espejo, la imagen le devuelve una figura que se replica infinitas veces por cada una de sus colegas; narraciones que conjugan un paralelismo impresionante en las que convergen emociones, conocimientos, descalabros, triunfos innegables y la satisfacción de haber seguido su camino pese a los múltiples –y coincidentes– obstáculos que han enfrentado.
Propuestas y aportaciones de académicos y especialistas en el tema que contribuyeron a la reflexión sobre los caminos que se deben impulsar para detener el cambio climático.

This book shows what role nature can play in a city and how this can make it a better place for people to live. People, planners, designers and politicians are working towards the development of green cities. Some cities are already promoted as green cities, while others are on their way to become one. But their goals are often unclear and can include different facets. Presenting contributions from world leading researchers in the field of urban ecology, the editors provide an interdisciplinary overview of best practices and challenges in creating green cities. They show examples of how to build up these cities from bits and pieces to districts and urban extensions. Each example concludes wi...
Introduction to Atmospheric Chemistry is a concise, clear review of the fundamental aspects of atmospheric chemistry. In ten succinct chapters, it reviews our basic understanding of the chemistry of the Earth's atmosphere and discusses current environmental issues, including air pollution, acid rain, the ozone hole, and global change. Written by a well-known atmospheric science teacher, researcher, and author of several established textbooks, this book is an introductory textbook for beginning university courses in atmospheric chemistry. Also suitable for self instruction, numerous exercises and solutions make this textbook accessible to students covering atmospheric chemistry as a part of courses in atmospheric science, meteorology, environmental science, geophysics and chemistry. Together with its companion volume, Basic Physical Chemistry for the Atmospheric Sciences (second edition 2000; Cambridge University Press), Introduction to Atmospheric Chemistry provides a solid introduction to atmospheric chemistry.
