This book presents development strategies and lessons based on a large range of 'success' countries across the developing world. In addition to the country cases, it presents regional and overall syntheses that cover orthodox vs. heterodox policies; the importance of capability, primary exports, diversification and financing; managing diversity; the role of institutions and governance; and human development. The book reveals much diversity in successful development strategies offered by the various select countries: for example, the 'disinterested-government' political economy of China; the democratically supported, high-service-sector development approach of India; the 'Washington-Consensus...

Desobsessão

Maria José da costa orientada pelo espírito Ernesto. Esta obra surgiu da necessidade que o grupo de reunião semanal mediúnica na Associação Médica de Minas Gerais teve, em 2014, de estudar mais detalhadamente os atendimentos mediúnicos realizados em nossas reuniões mediúnicas de quinta-feira e desenvolver novas abordagens para conseguir atender de melhor forma os espíritos encaminhados para esclarecimento. Nossa reunião tem duas partes: a de estudos e a de práticas mediúnicas. A princípio, os atendimentos realizados mediunicamente foram gravados em áudios e transcritos para serem, posteriormente, lidas e revisadas na parte de estudos. Com o passar do tempo, surgiu a ideia de compartilharmos as experiências com outras pessoas, e daí chegamos ao livro.

Cardiovascular Applications of Stem Cells

The book covers multifarious aspects of stem cell-based therapy for cardiovascular diseases. In addition to stem cells from different sources for cell-based therapy, it covers stem cell organoids and stem cell-derived exosomes in regenerative medicine. The book also encompasses advances in state-of-the-art infrastructure to improve the maturation aspects of pluripotent stem cells-derived cardiomyocytes using a novel scaffold-based cell culture system for cell delivery in experimental animal models and clinical settings. Besides the use of mesenchymal stem cells, the book includes chapters on the use of cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs), microtissue implantation, use of PSCs for valvulopathies,...

Acadêmicos indígenas em Roraima e a construção da interculturalidade indígena na universidade

Este livro é o resultado de minha pesquisa de doutorado em Antropologia, que concluí no ano de 2017, pela Universidade de Brasília (UnB). O tempo transcorrido de lá para cá mostrou que o tema da pesquisa foi uma escolha feliz, pois vem ganhando visibilidade e relevância dentro e fora do ambiente acadêmico e acompanha a ascensão de uma nova e estimulante fase do movimento indígena no Brasil, em que jovens acadêmicas/os assumem de vez o protagonismo das lutas históricas de seus povos. O estado de Roraima, em que realizei o trabalho de campo, está entre as referências necessárias para qualquer pessoa interessada em conhecer os direitos indígenas, as lutas pela retomada do territ�...

MXenes: Fundamentals and Applications

This is the very first book on the highly promising topic of MXenes; focusing on their fundamental characteristics and properties, fabrication techniques and applications. MXenes are two-dimensional materials consisting of few atoms thick layers of transition metal carbides or nitrides. These are characterized by high electrical conductivity, good hydrophilicity, chemical stability, and ultrathin 2D sheet-like morphology. Applications in the energy, environmental, biomedical and electronic industries include catalysis, membrane separation, supercapacitors, hybrid-ion capacitors, batteries, flexible electronics, hydrogen storage, nanoelectronics, and sensors.

Sustainable Horticulture

Sustainable Horticulture: Microbial Inoculants and Stress Interaction gives insights into the applications and formulations of microbial inoculants. In recent years, the optimum yields of horticultural plants largely influenced by rising global temperature, biotic stress (attack of pathogens) and abiotic stresses has created extra pressure for the horticulturalist to meet the need of optimum yield production for the burgeoning global population. However, the challenges of biotic and abiotic stress factors mitigated by traditional physical or chemicals methods include high application cost and adverse impact on quality limit the frequent use, hence the solutions in this book create new avenue...
