En aquest nou volum es presenta una tria d'itineraris per la comarca natural de les Guilleries, atenent principalment a la història dels llocs que es visiten. És per això que han estat recollits els recorreguts que transiten per camins històrics i també aquells que tenen com a referents carlinades, bandolerisme, mitologia, etc.
Recull d’itineraris a peu i amb cotxe per a facilitar el coneixement ràpid d’unes muntanyes, situades entre les comarques d’Osona i la Selva, que van ser testimoni d’històries de carlins, bandolers com Joan de Serrallonga, i els militars que van elaborar el primer mapa de la zona.
Guia de prehistòria de la Cerdanya, fonamentada en la localització i descripció dels monuments megalítics, tant dòlmens com menhirs, que han arribat fins a nosaltres, acompanyats dels exemples coneguts d’art contemporani sobre roca i conjunts d’art lineal, de cronologia probablement protohistòrica i medieval. El llibre presenta, a més, una síntesi actualitzada de les diferents cultures prehistòriques, que es varen succeir a la comarca, des de les més reculades fins a la conquesta romana.

A collaboration between some of the leading international experts in the field, AOCMF proudly presents Antiresorptive Drug-related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ARONJ)-a Guide to Research, which unravels the many biologic processes and risk factors associated with this debilitating condition. With its unknown pathophysiology, lack of established management regimens, and because of the millions of patients currently taking antiresorptive agents, this important book on ARONJ has been produced to provide the latest in contemporary evidence and insight. The book's key features include: Detailed analysis of the historical definitions, classifications, and clinical features of ARONJ Review of the risk factors and treatment options currently available, and why the jaw bone is predominantly affected Discussion on the use of large and small animals in modelling. With dozens of clinical images to help illustrate the impact of this condition on real patients, Antiresorptive Drug-related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ARONJ)-a Guide to Research is an excellent resource for anyone involved or interested in this important medical field.
This book is devoted to the rapidly developing field of oxide thin-films and heterostructures. Oxide materials combined with atomic-scale precision in a heterostructure exhibit an abundance of macroscopic physical properties involving the strong coupling between the electronic, spin, and structural degrees of freedom, and the interplay between magnetism, ferroelectricity, and conductivity. Recent advances in thin-film deposition and characterization techniques made possible the experimental realization of such oxide heterostructures, promising novel functionalities and device concepts. The book consists of chapters on some of the key innovations in the field over recent years, including strongly correlated oxide heterostructures, magnetoelectric coupling and multiferroic materials, thermoelectric phenomena, and two-dimensional electron gases at oxide interfaces. The book covers the core principles, describes experimental approaches to fabricate and characterize oxide heterostructures, demonstrates new functional properties of these materials, and provides an overview of novel applications.
In recent decades, new endogenous growth theory has become popular but the ideas are not new. They go back at least as far as Adam Smith, and the subsequent contributions made notably by Alfred Marshall and Allyn Young. This book critically discusses and provides an historical perspective to the entire spectrum of endogenous growth theories starting with Adam Smith and ending with Paul Romer. It fills an important gap in the literature. While contributions of individual authors are readily available, there is no comprehensive study on the subject covering such a vast ground, critically discussing these authors in a comprehensive framework. It collates all the arguments and economic viewpoints in one collection, providing both the seasoned economist and a graduate economist with a critical comparison of origin, mechanisms, conclusions, and policy implications of these models.
'We are not beggars. I am not here for you to cast your pity at me like breadcrumbs tossed to a cripple. Because I know you're listening to me; and my voice won't be silent, not yet.' Tejas Verdes ('Green Gables'), once a sea-side resort, was an infamous Chilean torture and detention centre during the early years following the Pinochet coup in 1973. Fermín Cabal's humane and powerful play traces the life of a young woman who vanished one night in Santiago. Beneath the tolling of the church bells, her voice and the voices of those who share her story ring out with poetic beauty and overwhelming love.
