Zygmunt : memórias de guerra e paz
Um rapaz de 15 anos durante o bombardeio da Polônia pela Alemanha nazista em 1939 e sua saga com \"muitas chances de morrer\" - como ele diz hoje, aos 89 anos - até chegar ao Brasil. Uma história, por muitas vezes, inacreditável. Neste livro, Zygmunt Antoni Filipecki relata suas memórias de guerra e paz. Na resistência polonesa, nas prisões, em campo de trabalho na Sibéria, no Exército polonês em formação dentro da Rússia, nas forças aliadas no Oriente Médio... e, paralelamente, a história da própria Polônia e da II Guerra, que se mescla com a dele e a da sua família, principalmente da irmã Wanda, que fez parte do Levante de Varsóvia. O seu reencontro com Wanda, muitos anos depois, no Rio de Janeiro, é cinematográfico e compõe uma das mais imprevisíveis e emocionantes cenas destas memórias. Sem que nenhum dos irmãos soubesse que o outro escapara da guerra com vida e sequer pudesse imaginar que ambos estivessem então morando no Brasil, na mesma cidade. Coincidência, destino, milagre? Cada um encontra a sua resposta.
Molecular Basis of Breast Cancer
This richly-illustrated atlas-like book provides a foundation for the biological and molecular understanding of how the mammary gland develops and how breast cancer originates. The main goal is to comprehensively review in ten chapters fundamental knowledge in breast cancer. New paradigms are described in which induction of differentiation in the mammary gland can promote prevention and cure of breast cancer. The text is extremely helpful both for clinicians treating patients and researchers looking for new avenues of development.
A Pilgrim's Journey
Saint Ignatius of Loyola was a man who saw above and beyond his century, a man of vision and calm hope, who could step comfortably into our era and the Church of our time and show us how to draw closer to Christ. Ignatius' autobiography spans eighteen very important years of this saint's 65-year life...from his wounding at Pamplona (1521) through his conversion, his university studies and his journey to Rome in order to place his followers and himself at the disposal of the Pope. These critical years reveal the incredible transformation and spiritual growth in the soul of a great saint and the events that helped to bring about that change in his life. This classic work merits a long life. Apart from providing a splendid translation of the saint's original text, Father Tylenda has included an informative commentary which enables the modern reader to grasp various allusions in the text-and to gain a better view of a saintly man baring his soul.
Bibliodiversity
In a globalized world, megacorp publishing is all about numbers, sameness and following the formula of the latest megasuccess. Each book is expected to pay for itself and all the externalities of publishing. It means books that take off slowly but have long lives, books that change social norms, are less likely to be published. Encapsulated in the term bibliodiversity, coined by Chilean publishers in the 1990s, independent publishers are envisioning a different way. Susan Hawthorne provides a scathing critique of the global publishing industry, set against a visionary proposal for “organic” publishing. She looks at free speech and fair speech, at the environmental costs of mainstream publishing and at the promises and the challenges of the move to digital.
Kinetic Garment Construction
Fashion designers are presented with a range of methods and concepts for pattern cutting are presented, the main body of these methods, both traditional and contemporary, is predominately based on a theoretical approximation of the body that is derived from horizontal and vertical measurements of the body in an upright position: the tailoring matrix. As a consequence, there is a lack of interactive and dynamic qualities in methods connected to this paradigm of garment construction, from both expressional and functional perspectives. This work proposes and explores an alternative paradigm for pattern cutting that includes a new theoretical approximation of the body as well as a more kinetic m...

Oneness vs. the 1%
Widespread poverty and malnutrition, an alarming refugee crisis, social unrest, and economic polarization have become our lived reality as the top 1% of the world’s seven-billion-plus population pushes the planet—and all its people—to the social and ecological brink. In Oneness vs. the 1%, Vandana Shiva takes on the Billionaires Club of Gates, Buffet, and Zuckerberg, as well as other modern empires whose blindness to the rights of people, and to the destructive impact of their construct of linear progress, have wrought havoc across the world. Their single-minded pursuit of profit has undemocratically enforced uniformity and monocultures, division and separation, monopolies and external...
