Biological Control in Latin America and the Caribbean
The book summarizes the history of biological control in Latin America and the Caribbean. Few publications provide historical detail and the records are, therefore, fragmented until now. By bringing information together in this book, we offer a more complete picture of important developments in biological control on this continent. There are a wealth of text, tables and references about the history of such projects, and which were succesful and which failed. This will help plan future biocontrol projects. An overview is provided of the current situation in biological control for many Latin American and Caribbean countries, revealing an astonishing level of practical biological control applied in the regio, making it the largest area under biological control worldwide. The final part describes new developments and speculates about the future of biological control in Latin America and the Caribbean.
ESCAGEDO FAMILY HISTORY
A genealogy book of the Escagedo family, which originated in Cantabria, Spain. Collected herein are chronologies, family trees, photos, documents, and biographies.

Neoliberalism and Labor Displacement in Panama
Neoliberalism and Labor Displacement in Panama: Contested Public Space and the Disenfranchisement of Street Vendors examines the simultaneous increase of informal sector employment and decreased access to space for Panamanian street vendors, whose creative ventures in public spaces concretize the face of informality in most of the Global South. Through the lived experiences and voices of street traders surveyed over twelve years of field research, this book portrays the long-lasting saga and resistance actions of informalized vendors dislocated from their traditional selling points in Panama City’s downtown. Amado argues that neoliberal policies, including privatization, labor deregulation, and market-led urban renewal, inflict a double squeeze on working-class Panamanians by reducing opportunities for stable formal sector employment and restricting access increasingly gentrified areas of Panama City historically used for street vending. This book also sheds light on the commoditization and contested nature of public space, discursively contended by competing views of its functions and who has the right to it.
Design of Experiments for Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Food, and Industrial Applications
Statistics is a key characteristic that assists a wide variety of professions including business, government, and factual sciences. Companies need data calculation to make informed decisions that help maintain their relevance. Design of experiments (DOE) is a set of active techniques that provides a more efficient approach for industries to test their processes and form effective conclusions. Experimental design can be implemented into multiple professions, and it is a necessity to promote applicable research on this up-and-coming method. Design of Experiments for Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Food, and Industrial Applications is a pivotal reference source that seeks to increase the use of design of experiments to optimize and improve analytical methods and productive processes in order to use less resources and time. While highlighting topics such as multivariate methods, factorial experiments, and pharmaceutical research, this publication is ideally designed for industrial designers, research scientists, chemical engineers, managers, academicians, and students seeking current research on advanced and multivariate statistics.
Critical Readings
The fifth book of the collection "Latin America: Thoughts" presents a collection of Ruth Verde Zein's articles on architectural theory, history and critic, arranged around three themes: Teaching and research, case studies and panoramas. Essays that share the belief that architectural design process is both creation of the new and connection with the relevant tradition and that being an eminently practical activity, its completion and renewal only occurs when it relates to conceptual issues.
Lelé: Dialogues with Neutra and Prouvé
The sixth book of "Latin America: Thoughts" collection, with foreword by Abilio Guerra and afterword by Paulo Bruna, brings André Marques' research on the work of architect João Filgueiras Lima, Lelé, in its aspects of technology and interaction with the environment. The author also establishes relationships between Lelé's design strategies with those of the French builder Jean Prouvé and the Austrian architect Richard Neutra.
Transforming REDD+
Constructive critique. This book provides a critical, evidence-based analysis of REDD+ implementation so far, without losing sight of the urgent need to reduce forest-based emissions to prevent catastrophic climate change. REDD+ as envisioned
