A Guide to the Latin American Art Song Repertoire

A reference guide to the vast array of art song literature and composers from Latin America, this book introduces the music of Latin America from a singer's perspective and provides a basis for research into the songs of this richly musical area of the world. The book is divided by country into 22 chapters, with each chapter containing an introductory essay on the music of the region, a catalog of art songs for that country, and a list of publishers. Some chapters include information on additional sources. Singers and teachers may use descriptive annotations (language, poet) or pedagogical annotations (range, tessitura) to determine which pieces are appropriate for their voices or programming needs, or those of their students. The guide will be a valuable resource for vocalists and researchers, however familiar they may be with this glorious repertoire.

Amid the growing calls for a turn towards sustainable agriculture, this book puts forth and discusses the concept of agrarian extractivism to help us identify and expose the predatory extractivist features of dominant agricultural development models. The concept goes beyond the more apparent features of monocultures and raw material exports to examine the inherent logic and underlying workings of a model based on the appropriation of an ever-growing range of commodified and non-commodified human and non-human nature in an extractivist fashion. Such a process erodes the autonomy of resourcedependent working people, dispossesses the rural poor, exhausts and expropriates nature, and concentrate...

The Maternal Fetal Interface

The 29 papers contained in this volume look closely at various aspects of what is termed, "The Maternal-Fetal Interface," as it relates to the latest research in placental science. A substantial section of the book is devoted to the troublesome question of vertical transmission of infectious agents: namely, the HIV-1 virus. However, other sections of the volume examine related issues such as drug and toxin transfer across the term placenta and the diversity of placental types and how this can affect a placenta's effectiveness as a barrier.

"This 8-chapter book is written by experts from China, Mexico, Portugal, United Kingdom and the United States of America. The book is focused on estrogen receptor structure, functions and clinical significance. Though we are unable to address all aspects of the estrogen receptors, we have analysed and discussed estrogen receptors or their isoforms in some major estrogen receptor-related disorders including cancers, endocrine diseases, respiratory diseases and obesity. The information provided by this book should aid our understanding the role of estrogen receptors in human diseases. This book will be of great value not only for clinicians interested in estrogen receptor-related diseases but also for basic scientists working in the field of estrogen receptors"--
