Filosofía más allá de la academia
Las discusiones, en entornos académicos, acerca de la pertinencia de ciertas prácticas en filosofía han trazado múltiples posibilidades de análisis sobre la dirección que, en este ejercicio, se debería abordar la filosofía. Es así como, de forma no deliberada, se dan posiciones argumentadas que afirman la necesidad del quehacer filosófico en espacios estrictamente académicos en los que la producción del saber depende de un ejercicio reflexivo, analítico en torno al gran acervo histórico con el que cuenta la disciplina para, a partir de este, establecer sus razones para criticar, afirmar o proponer. Por otra parte, se puede encontrar a aquellos que consideran que el hecho filosófico solo puede darse en relación con los demás y con los contextos en los que se desenvuelve el hombre, aduciendo que la filosofía es un hecho tan humano como la razón, esto sin entrar en detalle de la exposición teórica que sobre esta afirmación existe
De la comprensión a la práctica del estoicismo
Los procesos de indagación en filosofía, y su acción en contextos reales, han conducido al encuentro de un variado número de expresiones que la traen a situaciones y entornos cotidianos en los que hay oportunidades para la reflexión, el análisis, la crítica, el asombro y, en suma, para la pregunta. Es así como se muestran las prácticas filosóficas contemporáneas, perfiladas como caminos de indagación para los interrogantes que se encuentran en las dinámicas del desarrollo social – y personal – del hombre en muy diversos escenarios, desde lo empresarial, lo académico, lo terapéutico y, especialmente para este libro, en ambientes de exclusión social y reclusión. Teniendo e...

Global Burden and Challenges of Melioidosis
This book is the definitive reference regarding the global status of melioidosis in 2018. Melioidosis is one of the most neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), so much so that it is not even included in the WHO list of NTDs. Yet modeling suggests that it kills more people worldwide every year than diseases that are much better known, such as leptospirosis and dengue. The reasons for this under-recognition are numerous, including the fact that it mainly affects the disadvantaged rural poor in areas that are poorly supplied with the diagnostic capability to make the diagnosis. In 22 separate articles, expert authors from around the world have summarized what is known about the burden of the disea...

Prosocial
A groundbreaking, comprehensive program for designing effective and socially equitable groups of all sizes—from businesses and social justice groups to global organizations. Whether you work in business or schools, volunteer in neighborhoods or church organizations, or are involved in social justice and activism, you understand the enormous power of groups to enact powerful and lasting change in the world. But how exactly do you design, build, and sustain effective groups? Based on the work of Nobel Prize winning economist Elinor Ostrom and grounded in contextual behavioral science, evolutionary science, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), Prosocial presents a practical, step-by-step approach to help you energize and strengthen your business or organization. Using the Prosocial model, you’ll learn to design groups that are more harmonious, have better member or employee retention, have better relationships with other groups or business partners, and have more success and longevity. Most importantly, you’ll learn to target the characteristics that foster cooperation and collaboration—key ingredients for any effective group.
