Promoting Social and Cultural Equity in the Tourism Sector
People venture into tourist activities to expand their worldviews and experiences, and as such, it is common for them to face realities totally different from those they are used to. Therefore, it is essential to discuss tourist experiences related to issues with discrimination and equality such as racism, inherent prejudice, gender equality, indigenous rights, and experiences of the LGBTQIA+ community to ensure the tourism industry is inclusive and safe. Promoting Social and Cultural Equity in the Tourism Sector provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest findings from empirical research on diversity and equity applied to tourism activity. The book also contributes to the discussion about the nuances inherent to tourism activities and experiences at tourist destinations. Covering a wide range of topics such as gender bias, employability, and diversity education, this reference work is crucial for hotel managers, activists, travel agencies, tour organizations, industry professionals, government officials, policymakers, researchers, scholars, practitioners, academicians, instructors, and students.
E a vida continua
O livro é uma iniciativa da Regional 1 (R1) da Associação Brasileira de Ensino de Biologia. A obra reúne 54 trabalhos apresentados durante o V Encontro Regional de Ensino de Biologia da R1 (MT, MS e SP). Os textos refletem uma diversidade de abordagens e um constante fortalecimento do Ensino de Ciências e Biologia em nosso país.
Nutrition and Quality of Life in the Elderly
The WHO estimates that by 2050, 30% of the world's population will be elderly. The increased life expectancy of the population coupled with falling fertility contributes to this scenario in many countries. Although the life expectancy of the population has increased, the recurring concern is to ensure the quality of life of this group. Some diseases are directly associated with the aging process, such as sarcopenia and osteoporosis. On the other hand, chronic degenerative diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, and cancer, are associated with long-term inadequate health habits and, therefore, are more prevalent in the elderly. Among the factors that contribute to a lifestyle that influences the onset of these diseases, we can highlight sedentarism and poor diet quality.

The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

Getting Respect
A comparative look at how discrimination is experienced by stigmatized groups in the United States, Brazil, and Israel Racism is a common occurrence for members of marginalized groups around the world. Getting Respect illuminates their experiences by comparing three countries with enduring group boundaries: the United States, Brazil and Israel. The authors delve into what kinds of stigmatizing or discriminatory incidents individuals encounter in each country, how they respond to these occurrences, and what they view as the best strategy—whether individually, collectively, through confrontation, or through self-improvement—for dealing with such events. This deeply collaborative and integr...
Twenty-First Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals
153 posters. While plant biotechnology for enzyme production and designer biomass merged as "hot topics" throughout the Symposium, the preface for each session is included in the introductions. Special topic discussions were led on "Brazilian Bioethanol Progress" by Gisella Zanin, State University of Maringa, Brazil, and on "Nontradi tional Bioprocessing" by Gene Petersen, National Renewable Energy Labo ratory, Golden, CO. A tour of the Colorado Bioprocessing Center, a "state of the art" con tract research facility at Colorado State University highlighted the process development and scale-up activities ongoing with several industrial clients. The 1999 Charles D. Scott Award for Distinguished Contributions in the field of Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals was presented to Dr. Charles E. Wyman, Dartmouth College professor, Thayer School of Engineering, Hanover, New Hampshire. This award is named in honor of Dr. Charles D. Scott, the founder of this Symposium and its chair for the first ten years.
História E Genealogia Da Família Lara
No início da pesquisa da família Lara, conversando com pessoas que carregam este apelido, em Carmópolis de Minas e em Piracema, fui montando a “árvore”. Em contato com o senhor Geraldo de Oliveira Pinto, o Zizico e mais tarde com o senhor Antônio Pinto de Góes e Lara, residente em São João del Rei, este começou a pesquisar os inventários e testamentos que constam nos arquivos daquela cidade, norteado por uma lista, por mim enviado. Certa ocasião em que estive em Mariana para pesquisar o processo de ordenação de um padre de minha família, e aproveitando pesquisei também três padres da família Lara, sendo um deles o Padre Francisco Pinto Rodrigues de Góes e Lara, filho le...
