As Adolescências Periféricas:
As adolescências periféricas: uma pesquisa-ação integral/transpessoal é um livro-convite para os que desejam ir além de naturalizações, reducionismos e generalizações do que é ou deveria ser um adolescente. Um livro-lugar no qual a terra úmida por baixo de nossos pés pulsa sonhos e reverbera vidas: aquelas vidas não contadas, aqueles sonhos não dormidos que brincam nas ruas e repousam pelas margens de nossas cidades.
The Last Children of Tokyo
Yoshiro thinks he might never die. A hundred years old and counting, he is one of Japan's many 'old-elderly'; men and women who remember a time before the air and the sea were poisoned, before terrible catastrophe promted Japan to shut itself off from the rest of the world. He may live for decades yet, but he knows his beloved great-grandson - born frail and prone to sickness - might not survive to adulthood. Day after day, it takes all of Yoshiro's sagacity to keep Mumei alive. As hopes for Japan's youngest generation fade, a secretive organisation embarks on an audacious plan to find a cure - might Yoshiro's great-grandson be the key to saving the last children of Tokyo?
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

The New Brazilian Cinema
Lucia Nagib presents a comprehensive critical survey of Brazilian film production since the mid 1990s, which has become known as the "renaissance of Brazilian cinema". Besides explaining the recent boom, this book elaborates on the new aesthetic tendencies of recent productions, as well as their relationships to earlier traditions of Brazilian cinema. Internationally acclaimed films, such as "Central Station", "Seven Days in September" and "Orpheus", are analysed alongside daringly experimental works, such as "Chronically Unfeasible", "Starry Sky" and "Perfumed Ball". Contributors include Carlos Diegues, Robert Stam, Laura Mulvey and Jose Carlos Avellar.
Fluvial Depositional Systems
This book is intended to complement the author's 1996 book "The geology of fluvial deposits", not to replace it. The book summarizes methods of mapping and interpretation of fluvial depositional systems, with a detailed treatment of the tectonic, climatic and eustatic controls on fluvial depositional processes. It focuses on the preserved, ancient depositional record and emphasizes large-scale (basin-scale) depositional processes. Tectonic and climatic controls of fluvial sedimentation and the effects of base-level change on sequence architecture are discussed. Profusely illustrated and with an extensive reference to the recent literature, this book will be welcomed by the student and professional geologist alike.
Design + Craft
The book presents a radiography of the revitalization of Brazilian artisanal objects. It approaches the high quality of products that result from the encounter of artisans and designers; and the initiatives marked by entrepreneurism and social innovation developed in communities throughout the country, bringing a new push to sustainable local development.
ANPP e o Protagonismo das Partes
O trabalho trata do acordo de não persecução penal sob a perspectiva das partes, do princípio acusatório e da efetividade. Buscou-se demonstrar, por meio de uma análise de distintos ramos do direito, que a proeminência das partes, e não do julgador, há de ser observada na justiça penal negociada. Analisaram-se as soluções consensuais existentes no direito português (arquivamento em caso de dispensa de pena, suspensão provisória do processo, processo sumaríssimo, mediação penal e acordo sobre sentenças penais) e no estadunidense (plea bargaining), bem como o acordo de não persecução cível e o seu mecanismo de controle peculiar, que abarca cumulativamente o órgão de re...
A Tropical Belle Epoque
This book, originally published in 1987, is a socio-cultural analysis of a tropical belle epoque: Rio de Janeiro between 1898 and 1914. It relates how the city's elite evolved from the semi-rural, slave-owning patriarchy of the coffee-port seat of a monarchy into an urbane, professional, rentier upper crust dominating the centre of a 'modernising' oligarchical republic. It explores such varied topics as architecture, literature, prostitution, urban reform, the family, secondary schools, and the salon. It evokes a milieu increasingly marked by Europe, demonstrating how French and English culture permeated the lives of elite members who adapted it to their needs and perspectives as a dominant stratum of relatively recent and varied origin. This exploration of cultural 'dependency' in a unique, cosmopolitan, fin-de-siecle urban culture will also interest those concerned with the broader questions of culture and colonialism during the high tide of European imperialism.
Montagem Audiovisual: Reflexões e Experiências
O presente livro é resultado das comunicações apresentadas no Seminário Temático do XXIV e XXV Encontros na Socine. O primeiro deles realizado remotamente aos auspícios da ESPM RJ (Escola Superior de Propaganga e Marketing) em 2021 e o segundo, presencial, na USP (Universidade de São Paulo) em 2022. A publicação reúne 14 artigos com os mais diversos temas e métodos de abordagem que demonstram a multiplicidade do pensamento sobre a montagem e a heterogeneidade de estratégias de análise, a começar pelo conjunto de textos que reconhecem e recuperam a contribuição das montadoras e montadores para as artes audiovisuais. São as experimentações e descobertas desses profissionais ...
