This richly documented work focuses on the parentela (extended family), including Epitacio's, to illustrate the role bonds of blood, marriage, and friendship played in formal politics at local, state, and national levels throughout the Old Republic (1889-1930). Originally published in 1987. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
Contains records describing books, book chapters, articles, and conference papers published in the field of Latin American studies. Coverage includes relevant books as well as over 800 social science and 550 humanities journals and volumes of conference proceedings. Most records include abstracts with evaluations.
A obra reconstitui as origens e as alianças de famílias do Seridó Potiguar e do Brejo Paraibano setecentistas, com base em fontes documentais e a partir de hipóteses fundamentadas. Trata-se de um estudo genealógico não exaustivo a respeito das famílias Alves de Castro, Azevedo e Melo, Casado de Oliveira, Fernandes Pimenta, Soares de Vasconcelos e Valcácer, que tinham em comum o fato de possuírem, em uma mesma época, uma parte de seus membros residindo no brejo e outra parte habitando o sertão. Além de revisões e acréscimos no texto, esta segunda edição da obra conta com fotografias feitas pelo próprio autor em suas viagens e um índice remissivo.
This book is written in honor of Prof. Francisco Rodriguez-Reinoso, who has made significant contributions in the area of porous materials such as active carbons and graphenes. It details the preparation of porous materials, including carbonaceous, zeolitic, and siliceous materials, MOFs, aerogels, and xerogels, describing the characterization techniques and the interpretation of the results, and highlighting common errors that can occur during the process. This book subsequently presents the use of modeling based on thermodynamics to describe the materials. Lastly, it illustrates a number of current environmental protection applications in the context of both water and air.
