A Biodiversidade como Ferramenta para o Melhoramento da Saúde Humana
A biodiversidade desempenha um papel importante no fornecimento de matérias-primas medicinais e recursos para produtos farmacêuticos. Em geral, estima-se que mais de 40% dos medicamentos disponÃveis na terapêutica moderna tenham origem na biodiversidade. Assim sendo, esta obra contém informações básicas e interdisciplinares sobre a magnificência das propriedades medicinais encontradas na biodiversidade. Este livro aborda os princÃpios semânticos dos termos biodiversidade e saúde; os recursos e as variabilidades genéticas; o histórico da interação humana com a natureza, bem como seus sucessos e fracassos; descreve sobre medicamentos que foram desenvolvidos a partir da exploraÃ...
The SAGE Encyclopedia of African Cultural Heritage in North America
The Encyclopedia of African Cultural Heritage in North America provides an accessible ready reference on the retention and continuity of African culture within the United States. Our conceptual framework holds, first, that culture is a form of self-knowledge and knowledge about self in the world as transmitted from one person to another. Second, that African people continuously create their own cultural history as they move through time and space. Third, that African descended people living outside of Africa are also contributors to and participate in the creation of African cultural history. Entries focus on illuminating Africanisms (cultural retentions traceable to an African origin) and c...
Multiple Criteria Decision Aid
Multiple criteria decision aid (MCDA) methods are illustrated in this book through theoretical and computational techniques utilizing Python. Existing methods are presented in detail with a step by step learning approach. Theoretical background is given for TOPSIS, VIKOR, PROMETHEE, SIR, AHP, goal programming, and their variations. Comprehensive numerical examples are also discussed for each method in conjunction with easy to follow Python code. Extensions to multiple criteria decision making algorithms such as fuzzy number theory and group decision making are introduced and implemented through Python as well. Readers will learn how to implement and use each method based on the problem, the ...

The Hot-Blooded Insects
"From one man's persistent and elegant probing of the temperature biology of bees, we have been led to a deeper understanding of the whole biology of many insect taxa, and of their interactions with ecological and environmental stresses: all who work at the interfaces of physiology, ecology and behaviour have cause to be grateful, and all should certainly read this book." (Trends in Ecology & Evolution) "An outstanding source of information, and can be read with profit and satisfaction by the professional biologist and interested amateur alike." (Nature)

Transgender Rights
"Transgender Rights packs a surprising amount of information into a small space. Offering spare, tightly executed essays, this slim volume nonetheless succeeds in creating a spectacular, well-researched compendium of the transgender movement." -Law Library Journal Over the past three decades, the transgender movement has gained visibility and achieved significant victories. Discrimination has been prohibited in several states, dozens of municipalities, and more than two hundred private companies, while hate crime laws in eight states have been amended to include gender identity. Yet prejudice and violence against transgender people remain all too common. With analysis from legal and policy e...
